Wow! That is 32 Republicans! That is a landslide majority of Republican senators! The old Communist objective of taking control of both political parties has been accomplished. Thank G-d for President Trump!

The immigration legislation would prohibit police in Illinois from detaining or arresting a person based on their immigration status or on federal immigration detainer.

I did not know that Illinois had so much extra money! I hope that they have already determined alternate sources for Federal funds.

Or perhaps Illinois is going to help criminals instead of putting them away.

Sign all you want. Cause your own demise. The Feds hold the purse strings.

The only thing “broken” about our immigration system was the enforcement part of it.
That was “broken” on purpose by every President since Reagan.
Trump is fixing that.

ANY illegal alien in contact with ANY law enforcement for ANY reason should be detained and removed.

That’s what every real country does.

Revert Illinois back to a US territory. Remove their members of congress. Revoke their voting rights. Put the US Army in charge of their law enforcement. Remove all of their state elected politicians. Put federal municipal managers in charge.

Either break up the state, or re-apply for statehood 20 years from now.

More like the Windy City Goon Squads have a pant load of stuff on him already. He is the epitome of one of my favorite Looney Tunes soundbites.

Wow, all the blacks killing each other in Chicago might not be happy about this. They’ve always had a monopoly on being “victims,” now they’re going to have competition.

Cities and states picking and choosing which federal laws to obey and enforce. I don’t think this is going to work out well.

Yes...no surprise the man was elected.

What IS a surprise is that he somehow made himself a billionaire before running for guv.

Watching that interview, one has to wonder if he had anything to do with his becoming a billionaire. Maybe that is more worth looking into.

Why wait? 4 years means your child can have a total term in HS in a better place. Everyone is new as a freshman. Someone no one knew from middle school can totally re-invent themselves. Go for it.

You left off Cassidy (La), but the list is innumerable really. Even “stalwarts” stray frequently.

Thanks for the heads-up. I'm passing it on to Freepers in Illinois, from Illinois and/or with Illinois links.

It must be difficult for you, as you remember ‘the way it use to be’, and when things worked. Congrats for escaping IL in style and beating the rush.

If Jeff Sessions wasn’t so damn pathetic, he would arrest this ahole Rauner.

I still have not heard the reason why Section 8 of the immigration law cannot be used to arrest these officials. Been waiting for an answer for a long time.

>> I supported him and voted for him. Now I look like a fool. I know his wife is a bleeding heart Democrat, but I thought he would be on my side. How foolish of me <<

Well, it takes some courage to admit a mistake, but at least you can do it. Can't say you weren't warned about Rauner though.

People holding their nose in the general and voting for Rauner just to get rid of Pat Quinn is one thing, and understandable given the circumstances. Still, there was ZERO excuse for all the self proclaimed "Tea Party" people pimping Rauner in the primary, and laughing off warnings that his career history showed he was a Rahm Emanuel pal and would govern accordingly.

I hope they are rightfully getting hell now for foisting this RINO on us and furthering Illinois' destruction.

I won’t vote for him...

I did not vote for Kirk in the last election.

I am tired of RINOs being placeholders...taking GOP slots that then are not available to true conservatives. There are way too many of them...Ryan, McConnell, Flake, McCain, Corker, and so on ...

I can’t pull lever for a democrat, but really Rauner did nothing to advance the cause, and I will be calling his office tomorrow to confirm...I have called about the voter registration...Did not know he would make IL a Sanctuary state.
