Trump Waging War Against Blue States and Cities

[C_Clayton_Jones]

‘A federal judge in the Northern District of Illinois on Friday threw out the government’s lawsuit claiming federal law preempts local laws limiting cooperation with Trump’s mass deportation effort. (The latter are improperly labeled “sanctuary city laws.” Localities are not claiming federal law is inapplicable, but rather, as discussed below, are declining to provide shock troops for Trump’s police state.) It was the latest round, and latest MAGA defeat, in Donald Trump’s war against states that resist his cruel, lawless, and dangerous agenda.

Trump’s war against blue states is central to his dictatorial ambitions. To achieve unlimited control, he must subjugate independent sources of power and information—from TV network news operations to universities to civil servants to Congress itself. Ironically (for a party that once fetishized states’ rights), Trump’s MAGA GOP consistently seeks to obliterate federalism and force states—generally blue ones—to do his bidding.

[…]

In sum, states have protection under the 10th Amendment to set their own policies. In demanding that blue cities and states follow the feds’ direction, the Trump regime impedes localities from translating “voter preferences into policy.” And, Jenkins wrote, such action denigrates state autonomy by seizing control over local jurisdictions’ employees (unconstitutionally “commandeering” them)—something at the heart of state sovereignty. (States’ refusal to be dragooned into manning Trump’s police state does not, as the government claimed, amount to impairing federal policy; rather, it constitutes exercising constitutionally protected sovereignty.)

Despite Trump’s executive decrees and legally dubious suits, states have every right to make their own law enforcement priorities and fund the policies they select. As Pritzker put it in a written statement, “Illinois ensures law enforcement time and energy is spent fighting crime—not carrying out the Trump Administration’s unlawful policies or troubling tactics.” Jenkins’ ruling protected its right to do so.’

Conservatives are dishonest and hypocrites – like Trump they’re enemies of the Constitution and the rule of law.

It is settled, accepted, and beyond dispute that the Federal government cannot compel states to enforce Federal laws, including immigration laws.

The judge is wrong and the SC will overturn his decision. Trump ends up even more powerful. They just try and delay the inevitable. Trump has been consistently winning in the SC.

It's not just Trumpybear. It couldn't be done without the acquiescence of the GOP in the House and Senate. They no longer carry the pocket Constitutions anymore.

Baloney facediaper. Anyone who sneaks into our country without following the lawful process is illegal and subject to deportation. Even your TDS cannot change the law.

You can always tell a paid Democrat shill, they just keep opening anti-Trump threads one after another linking a variety of lunatic fringe Leftist sites.

 

[wamose]

Sanctuary cities and states have declared war on our federal govt. and our constitution. Biden or Harris or Obama might just sit back and let that happen, but Trump isn't going to take that shit. That's what makes Trump so much better than anyone in the lawless Democrat party.

Any state law that conflicts with federal law is unconstitutional.

There is a big difference between "enforcing" and "harboring a fugitive" and "aiding and abetting" a criminal. Blue sanctuary cities and states are guilty of both of the latter.

LOL....The op said that like it's a bad thing.

Article 6 sec 2 of our constitution, the supremacy law:
Any state law that conflicts with federal law is unconstitutional.

What state law? The only thing that is happening is that states, and cities, are refusing to aid the ICE agents. That is their prerogative. I mean maybe those local law enforcement agencies want to find real criminals, not grandmothers that have lived here for three decades, raised a family, worked, paid taxes.

I mean you guys love throwing the word "illegal" around, but no law is broken if someone overstays their Visa. No law is broken if someone is granted temporary asylum status and attends every required hearing. And the really sad part, Last year Biden deported a higher percentage of convicted criminals than Trump currently has. Sure, by not much, but the numbers are absolutely through the roof higher.

ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations Statistics

www.ice.gov

We will wait and see how the numbers shake out by the end of the year. But last year Biden deported 68,266 convicted criminals. Through May, Trump had deported 17,157. And Trump has only got till September 30th. I mean it is all damn show. I mean for real, the ICE agents are a bunch of pussies. Hanging around school yards like pedophiles. Showing up at immigration court, judge throws the amnesty case out, boom, handcuffed and deported. They broke no law. You think anyone is going to show up at immigration court next year? ******* idiots. Sending out tax notices, you owe the IRS millions of dollars, pay up in two weeks or self-deport. Sure, maybe a handful with self-deport. The rest will just go underground, making them harder to find, harder to track. Like I said, ******* idiots. Arresting people at church. You know what other country once arrested people for going to church, at church. England, 1600's. How did that turn out for them?
