Can they force the feds to pay people who defy federal law?

What about those federal troops who showed up in the south to escort black school children into schools?

We had this war already. The Party of Lincoln won.

True, but they can cut off funding to the state if it doesn't. They used threats of cutting off highway funds to force states to pass 55 MPH speed limits, and raise the drinking age to 21 when is was 18 in some states.

That’s only if supported by US infrastructure, currency, defense, etc. By itself, CA would not be all that viable for a long time. And its politics would work against it. My opinion.

Build a GIGANTIC wall around California and forbid the populace from entering other states and cut off their fed funds.

“I recognize that under the Constitution, federal law is supreme and that Washington determines immigration policy,” Brown said.

Even moonbeam knows resistance is futile. These cities will have to settle for meaningless resolution “respecting humanity” or some SJW BS.

Chinese illegal immigration is potentially a bigger deal with the anchor babies and excessive chicom influence in Hollywood, Sacremento and the economy.

cool!
California will still pay taxes to the feds and it won’t qualify for subsidies back from Washington.
This will leave plenty of extra $$ to rebuild USA’s defenses plus some good infrastructure projects in the other 56 states.

Californication’s legislators are soooooooo very very clever!
