President Trump on Saturday called out California Gov. Jerry Brown (D) over immigration policy, marking further escalation in the dispute between the Trump administration and the Golden State.
Brown signed "sanctuary state" legislation last October in a rebuke of Trumps increased immigration restrictions. Trump has repeatedly blasted the state as hosting undocumented immigrants who commit crimes against American citizens, a charge he repeated on Saturday.

The Trump administration is suing California in a lawsuit filed earlier this month that aims to block the state's sanctuary laws. The Justice Department charges that the laws are designed to intentionally obstruct and discriminate against the enforcement of federal immigration law. Brown has called the lawsuit a "political stunt" by the Trump administration.
This is basically going to war against the state of California, the engine of the American economy. Its not wise, its not right, and it will not stand, Brown said earlier this month.

(12,618 posts)You know, that city that almost burned to the ground and lost more than six thousand homes that you didn't even visit once and then denied any federal aid to a few months ago even though you granted similar aid to Texas when they went through a hurricane last year? Yeah, that one.
And I'll just tell you that I love my governor and what he's doing. And even if I didn't, I'd support him for no other reason than he pisses you off. That would be enough for me. In other words, yes, it is what I want and kindly go fuck yourself with a cactus. Have a nice day.

(12,592 posts)No matter what you and your kind (Bush/Cheney come to mind) do to try to sabotage the will of the people of Califonia, we will win. You know why? Because we are on the right side of history and you are on the wrong side.
So go to hell, you lard-bottom pussy grabby.

Immigration enforcement is the feds' job, so the feds should pay for it, not California taxpayers. We already pay more in federal taxes than we get back in federal services/benefits. That is all the Sanctuary law is about: it in essence says deport peaceful immigrants on your own dime, Trump.

Red Don can go do something anatomically impossible with himself and tweet about that instead of coming here.
Oh wait, didn't he already come out for a mega-donor party where he made some jokes about the 99% while his 1% laughed? Yeah, that was helpful.
