CA Forced To Appeal After Fed. Judge Sides with Trump on Border Wall
Western Journalism ^ | April 11, 2018 | Kevin Daley

California will appeal a decision allowing construction of a portion of President Donald Trump’s border wall after a federal judge found the administration can waive environmental laws governing such projects.

California Attorney General Xavier Becerra called the proposed barrier “medieval” and vowed to continue protecting the state from “federal overreach.” The lower court decision ensures the barrier can be built on an accelerated timetable.

“When we said that a medieval wall along the U.S.-Mexico border does not belong in the 21st century, we meant it,” Becerra said. “There are environmental and public health laws in place, and we continue to believe that the Trump administration is violating those laws.”

“We are committed to protecting our people, our values, and our economy from federal overreach,” he added.

Californication - the state that hired Eric "Contempt" Holder to help them FIGHT TRUMP every step of the way. IMHO probably taking direct orders from the shadow Halfrican House in the Kalorama neighborhood.

“Xavier Becerra” always sounds like a real piece of work every time I see him quoted anywhere.

“Police contacted Becerra’s office, notifying him that the server was the subject of an ongoing investigation, and promptly requested a copy of it. However, what Capital Police received from the now California Attorney General’s office was described as an, “elaborate falsified image designed to hide the massive violations.”

"a medieval wall along the U.S.-Mexico border does not belong in the 21st century"

He may a point, but I think we're going for a 21st century wall.

No one should pay one damn bit of attention to the Mexican Separatist Becerra.

His loyalty is to the Mexican nation, period.

He has no business being in any position of trust in a state of the United States. He lied when he took the oath, and should be prosecuted for false swearing.

Becerra’s parents jumped the border with little Xavier in tow. If it weren’t for Teddy Kennedy’s deal with President Reagan to give amnesty to these Illegal aliens in exchange for a border wall (that the Democrats reneged on) little Xavier and his parents would have been deported years ago! When Becerra talks about “our values” is he talking about Democrats famous reneging on “deals?”

Build the wall that Teddy promised for your permission to stay here or GO BACK HOME!

Let me see if I understand the position of the once-great state of California.

“....“We are committed to protecting our people, our values, and our economy from federal overreach,” he added......”

But they will not allow a wail that would help in “...protecting our people, our values, and our economy from....” a waive of uneducated, poor skilled, immigrants and some MS-13 gang members.

Yes, protect it citizens from federal overreach, while not protecting its citizens from real threats. How crazy is that?

Obviously President Trump thinks more highly of Ann Coulter than you do, she’s one of very few whose tweets he follows.

Dear California,

"The lady doth protest too much, methinks."
And, it makes us wonder what you are hiding.
We're digging, and I wonder what we'll find.

Good Luck,
--We the People
