States must define any attempt to resettle Muslims as a crime of human trafficking with a punishment of imprisonment and fine. Obama should be named as the chief offender, tried and imprisoned.

Why is this demented narcissist still walking around loose?

Do the governators own a pen and a phone?

As I understand it States control a significant amount of that bureaucratic support a real citizen needs to conduct their business - even with the Federal Government.

My understanding is that SNAP determinations are made at the county level and handled by county employees. I believe that a lot of these other support gateway services are not instigated with Federal Authorities.

Drivers’ licenses, school registrations, ID cards. If the States are willing to push the issue, they can put a serious dent in the fortunes of these money grubbing ideological organizations (NGOs) willing to pollute our society with trash and trouble for a buck.

Ideally an armed state militia (like Texas) and orders such to apprehend any federal official who sets foot on sovereign state soil in the furtherance of this treasonous policy.

If mayors around the country can openly refuse to enforce immigration laws by establishing “sanctuary cities”, then I see no reason why Governors should not be able to refuse entry to Syrian “refugees.”

I personally do not think for one minute that the Federals would hesitate to send in troops to nip any such rebellion in the bud. It has been done before.

Texas Gov Greg Abbott is on top of this.....he recently announced he found a loophole in the federal financing apparatus which would stop Obama from forcing taxpayers to subsidize the Syrian terrorists.

======================================

Texas Gov Greg Abbott would be an outstanding VP choice.

<><> He beat Dem abortion Barbie handily.

<><> Abbott took on the lesbian sheriff and said NO to sanctuary cities.

<><> Abbott is a leader who gets things done; he lead 26 AG's in the
successful legal fight to get Obama's heinous amnesty EO's out on hold.

<><> Abbott recently found the funding loophole that could prevent Obama
from forcing taxpayers to finance Syrian refugees squatting in the US.

<><> Texas has an armed militia.

Texas Gov Greg Abbott would be an outstanding VP choice.

There are not enough troops for such an endeavor.
And a lot of the ones who would be sent would likely ignore the reason they were sent there.

IF Cruz is the nominee (he places 2nd or 1st in Iowa, that's likely), unless the GOP plays the shenanigans that W did with Cheney's miraculous relocation to Wyoming from Dallas, Abbott can't be Veep without losing Texas' electoral votes in the general election. Harder to do with Abbott because he can't change his residency while serving as TX Governor.

IF Trump is the nominee, he might pick Cruz as running mate but otherwise don't see any benefit for him to pick another Texan to lock up what is already a red state in the general election. A Trump that decides to make peace with the GOPe in order to unify the party for the general election will likely pick N.M. Governor Susana Martinez (hispanic female fiscal conservative), Condi Rice (black female with foreign policy chops), or even Carly FioRINO (Hillary attack dog and a Faustian bargain shades of Reagan/Bush '80).

IF a GOPe RINO is the nominee, I don't see any of them picking a Texan for the ticket unless Rubio is ordered by his masters to take Cruz as a running mate (a McCain/Palin redux) to make the liberal turd at the top of the ticket palatable to the conservative base.

Regardless of who is the nominee, I'd be very supportive of Abbott becoming the next Attorney General (or Mark Levin for that matter). Abbott, like Cruz and Levin, would also make a fine U.S. Supreme Court Justice.

To send troops in to the many states that will refuse entry to murderous Muslims would be impossible. The American people who love liberty will not stand for that and neither will the troops given such an order.

To state the obvious question.... What happens if some states accept them and some don’t? As soon as they are settled in a particular state, what’s to stop them from moving to a sate that was one of the ones that indicated they weren’t going to accept them for resettlement? The only way this can work is if there is a common policy for all, no?

You’re right. This corrupt and insane thing that some call president has NO business allowing anyone into this country. The precedent this pompous moron is setting...thanks to the damned Republicrats...is simply beyond comprehension.

He should be stopped dead in his tracks from doing ANYTHING further period.

Can anybody point to any country at any time anywhere in history, where the country or it's culture or it's tranquility was improved by Muslim immigration?

Anybody?

Then why in h*ll are we importing massive hordes of them in here?

It actually has to extend even further than the US.... Canada is right next door and the country has just voted in a boy clown who has promised that he is bringing in 25,000 'refugees' within 6 weeks. Since the Canada-US border is as porous as a sieve, how does that make you feel? Frankly, what Canada is planning on doing is just as concerning as if individual states were accepting them. http://news.nationalpost.com/news/canada/trudeau-vows-to-keep-canadians-safe-as-he-rebuffs-provinces-concerns-over-plan-to-accept-25000-syrian-refugees

Bottom line is that the states absolutely have the authority to stop unwanted refugees from coming into their states.
