He didn't act he stomped his feet and stormed away leaving the law breakers unmolested.
Somebody wake me when the mayor of Oakland is arrested. Then wake me when the 9th district says trump is unconstitutional. The wake me when the USSSC overrules the 9th and we can get to work. That should be late next year and i may die of old age in the meantime.
In the case of Sessions I need to see some results first

“There is no nullification. There is no secession...I would invite any doubters to go to Gettysburg, to the tombstones of John C. Calhoun and Abraham Lincoln. This matter has been settled,” he continued.

NOBODY finds his bravado even the least bit troubling?
“Federal law is the supreme law of the land”?? No, sir, the *CONSTITUTION* is the supreme Law of the land and the Laws make pursuit thereof; not the wishes and decrees on wants by black-robed tyrants that you shamefully follow and protect.
And, sorry, Magoo, it is NEVER “settled”:
“...We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness...”

“Here’s my message to Mayor Schaaf: How dare you,” Sessions said Wednesday. “How dare you needlessly endanger the lives of our law enforcement officers to promote a radical open borders agenda.”

Hey, Jeff, how ‘bout the Citizens of CA and this great nation? How ‘bout the taxpayers and law-abiding? The Rule of Law and the equal application thereof (STILL waiting on these last two)? F* you. You and your LEO’s lives are no greater, nor important, than mine or anyone else on this Earth.
I’d have backed ya 1k% if you came out on Constitutional authority grounds only. Citing chapter and verse of the govt of CA (and others) breaking the law, hindering LAWFUL govt agents, aiding and abetting, etc. If you had ONE of yours to go arrest those that believe themselves to be above the Law.
Instead, we get your typical bovine bloviation of threats. Time to get off the pot, you’re just occupying space.
They used to call them "bullet bras." I'm not making that up.
Thank you, mister Useless Sessions, for your stern message to Californica.
So now, we can see Californica officially show you its middle finger.

There hasn’t been a nullification crisis over powers not delegated to the federal but reserved to the States or the people. Things like regulation of commerce within States or saying things that affect interstate commerce but which are not actually interstate commerce may be regulated. There really needs to be a LOT of that sort of nullification!
>
Regulate’ as per the Commerce Clause, follows the 2nd: to make regular. Federalism has been turned on its head w/ the *intentional* misapplication and misreading of the Constitution; *KNOWING*, and easily shown, to place restrictions upon GOVT, not We the People
But, yes, there should be a LOT of State vs. Fed in this area, but govt being govt, washes its own back.
>
It is under the usurpation of States rights that the fed does this. Remember every power we give to the Fed in good concience , will be used to do things we don’t agree with at some point.
The less power the Fed has the more free we are. As misguided as California’s policy is , as long as the voters keep voting for this crap, they have the right to make it how they want it. And we have the right to do the same.
In Tennessee I propose that we deliver every undocumented person to California.

I will have to disagree with you here.
Govt is premised on the DEFENSE of Rights\Freedom\Liberty. The Federal govt was granted powers to keep the State(s) in check from running rough-shod over the Citizenry; as much as it was to do that which The People and the State(s) could not: wage war, border protection, etc.
It is more than just 3-co-equal branches of govt, it is a check-valve on the 50 ‘laboratories’.
Without the consent of the governed their IS *NO* govt.
But, as govt is wont to do, *all* levels have failed miserably. And THAT I say lay squarely at the feet of The People.
Yep, I remember the bullet bras back in the ‘50s but the one in your earlier post was an artillery bra. :)
The Iowa House Public Safety Committee passed legislation yesterday banning sanctuary cities.
If he only he had the same passion regarding the Steele Dossier, et al.
Well in my younger years I would have taken a shot at it. However Mrs Clamper probably would shoot me if I tried that today
Chances you are correct: 99.99999%.
>>I think Sessions is nothing more than a posturing self aggrandizing political whore.<<
You have succinctly expressed the thinking of countless millions of Americans. He’s an absolute disgrace.
LOCK HIM UP!
That response works for me.
>>It’s not settled. Before the iron fist of the sainted Lincoln came down, secession was not a question. It had been threatened before and simply not carried out. But no one griped about it.
Why on earth would we forbid separation when that is what we did ourselves?
Further, why would one want to force “union” with those who have such enmity against the rest?<<
These are the kind of views that result from the failure of government to prosecute lawbreakers.
>>Lock her up.<<
Correction: LOCK HIM UP.
LOL!! Assault lingerie!
