House passes bill to punish sanctuary cities in wake of Steinle killing
About time things like this started happening, about 15 years overdue if you ask me. Still, I'm certain the House can rely on the Senate to stall this bit of sensible information; this is, unless Trump chimes in on it.
The law passed by con-gress is being ignored by the POTUS.
Impeach.
Call O before con-gress and place him under arrest for contempt.
Jail the looting traitor in a cell with a few hundred of the criminals he protects.
O will veto and the blood will be on his hands and the spineless in congress that will not join to over-ride. Strange how the administration claims immigration as their federal responsibility, fails miserably, sues States and municipalities that try to help and then assists and protects sanctuary cities that break the law.
I am dino--
Hear me roar!
So much for some fool's sabotage attempt.
Consistency is important to principles--but apparently not so much for certain beliefs.
Then comes along a State that recognizes the explicit rules Congress sets out, and gives themselves the authority to follow those explicit rules. Since the Constitution does not grant the Federal Government exclusive authority to enforce these rules, thus the State's law is explicitly constitutional. But they got sued, and the law overturned.
On the other hand, you have States and Cities that become "Sanctuaries" against the rules set forth by congress, thus are EXPLICITLY unconstitutional. These laws and cities are allowed to exist.
There is nothing unconstitutional about trying to enforce the rules set forth by congress. There is with ignoring it. Thus, the hypocrisy inherent in all of Liberalism.

House passed and Senate passed now lt's see if they will over ride or if Obeyme will cave?
Then look to see if the border patrols are increased, if the handling of those apprehended is changed or is it still catch and release? Is the border stil lthe border or is there a free zone for rock throwing and safe fence climbing?
Remember Polly Klass? What did that State do to protect it's citizens?
Will it make a difference to the voters?
One can always hope.
Untrue. The Constitution says all power comes from the people, that we elevate certain people to be leaders of our states, and that additional people are elevated to a federal level to handle matters common to all the states as a unified body.
Therefore, if the fed gov fails to do its mandated job, its up to the state to carry out the citizens will, if the state fails in its responsibility the power to defend is on the rightful owners of this land and origin of authority at any level, the American people.
It is the fed gov responsibility but only because that responsibility is given to them by the states. Fundamentally we have no government if all the laws of this nation are not being kept or enforced.
In so far as border protection is concerned the feds now have the bvorder patrol doing paperwork and crossing point customs and immigration work. the military is not being used in support of the federal border responsibility they are bing stood down and trained for civil insurrection.
I do believe they don't believe the country is worth the effort given the results of the elections. And people like Ramsey are in control at the top.
Either way posse comitatus doesn't apply and the federal government has plenty of manpower for border patrol duty.
how this latest congressional move will play out remains to be seen but I see it as nothing more than an assertion of federal supremacy using a case where it is correct as a reminder whose in charge - after all someone voted them into office on mulitiple occasions.
The rest is just a discussion of history. People get what they ask for and guaranteed the cities or tates that try this sancturary business will go out and vote for the same people next time in another meaningless except as a show of support for the Government Party.
Just think of it as one big scripted street theatrer production. Next episode another meaningless candidate shoved into the arena and then slaughtered. in the end - zero change.
The production is gettng boring. I'll tune in again next season and click the channel once again after the first fie minutes.
Jack Bauer for President! Better acting and better script writers.

But the name Ashinoff apparently originated in Russia and in 1930, there were only 10 people in this country by that name of which 5 were foreign born and 5 were 1st generation and by 1940, that number had grown to 24. The 30's in Russia was the time in which Stalin began the forced famines of at least the Ukrainians and much of his murder regime throughout the rest of the country killing tens of millions of his own citizens, even more than Hitler. So apparently, your family left during an appropriate time and must have worked pretty hard at that time (Depression and before the Welfare State) in this country to survive and prosper.
My ancestors include people here before Columbus and the Pilgrims, another group here before the Revolution, and other groups that immigrated before immigration records existed.
The vast majority of those coming across our Southern borders called Mexicans, Central Americans, and Latin American are in fact more Native American Indians than anything else. Few of those with strong Spanish, French, or German backgrounds are interested or need to immigrate or even sneak into the US.
I'm not suggesting that some kind of line should be drawn or that one group or origins deserves any more status than any other. But I will state that our problems are not because of the people coming across the border, it's what the progressive/statist/liberal-democrats and even conservatives (that fool, Reagan's Amnesty) have set up for them--the welfare state (FDR and LBJ) and the 'War On Drugs' from that great man, Nixon.
It's a very simple equation. Shutoff the sugar-tit of welfare and billions from drugs. Those that aren't here to work will fail or go home. Some of them will work and become productive. That is the only thing that will ever work. Find a path to a country of liberty and free markets with absolutely NO money from government for anything. No more DHS, no more TSA, no more immigration checkpoints 100 miles from the entire border covering 80% of the population of this country.
Our government is no longer lawful. If the government is not lawful, how do we expect anyone else to be lawful. (rhetorical)
But it brings up something that hadn't occurred to me before--where in the hell do cities that are going broke in a state that's going broke come up with money for welfare programs of their own?
The nation being seen as private property isn't confusing at all. The American people have staked claim to the geography which constitutes the nation. The inside of those borders consists of states, which consists of individually own land. Collectively the 50 states are one large collection of land owned by the American people.
