California rebukes Trump’s orders but wants $100B in federal infrastructure funds

WT:

California’s Attorney General Xavier Becerra has a message for the Trump administration: “We have a right to say to the federal government: Hands off,” he told the Los Angeles Times.

The same day, the paper had a story titled: “California submits a $100 billion wish list of infrastructure projects to Trump for federal funding.”

I’m sorry, but California, you can’t have it both ways. If you want federal government dollars, you’re going to need to follow federal law.

  1. Hahaha. Trump holds the checkbook now. California, you’re a former lover, not even an ex wife. America hates you. What’s that phrase I’m forgetting right now? Starts with a capital F. What was that again?

  2. Jerry Brown applied for emergency disaster relief do to all the flooding. He refuses to declare the drought over though. His motive behind that is combating the State of Jefferson. That will happen. Xavier is an attorney that’s never filed a law suite. Never filed a brief. There are serious doubts on whether he’s actually been in court. But he’s all about La Raza. He’s in the middle of rewriting California gun laws that have already been passed and signed. But to all you “Kiss California Good Bye” people. The NRA just learned a hard lesson. You don’t give up real estate. Just ask out neighboring states.

  3. @ Bad_Brad,

    I’d like to see the NRA, the FPC, and Gun Owners of America get the money that Brown wants.

    Hell, I’m tempted to join twitter just so I can tell everyone in the California Legislature to go fuck themselves……in real time.

    This kind of stuff is why I REFUSE to comply with gun registration mandates.

    These assholes took an oath that they have WILLINGLY forsaken. I also took that oath when I entered Naval OCS. The difference is that I intend to honor that oath – which has NO expiration date.

    Resistance to tyranny is obedience to God.

  4. So, if California pulls out of the union, the USA closes all CA bases? Arizona, Idaho, etc would probably live that! I can hear the sucking of federal funds, just from that CA economic crash. Maybe President Trump needs to start a feasibility study in that.

  5. they wont secede, they’re all high. they’re all talk no action, empty hollywood threats. they all pretend to be something they’re not. hollywood doesn’t have an in with trump and they know it. he doesn’t need their money, and doesn’t need their phony air kiss friendship. sacramento is in a tailspin and has no plan other than petty empty idle threats. it seems everybody from the obummer club is migrating to cali with the hopes of turning my state into the shithole that is called chicago or dc. but that aint gonna happen. mayor airhead spaghetti might win a 2nd term but hes a fake human. from the inside its kind of fun watch these poisoned rats going though their death throws. i know nobody outside gives a shit about cali, but its where i was born and its where ill live until i die. hell i just work for a living and keep under the radar. but i know whats going on from the inside and it’s everything you’ve heard of that they claim isn’t true. hah, these government types out here are to me as alien if not more so than e.t. it’s exactly like a high school student body run amuck. it’s like a box of hamsters crawling all over each other.

  6. oh yeah, and another thing, we don’t really need any wall. what we need is for trump to release the ICE and start Kracken. let these guys do their job and start kickin these criminal types out for good, and if they try to come back just keep shipping them back, after a whole lot of rejections they’ll get the picture. if not, accidents sometimes happen even to real bad people. just sayin

  7. The California cruds can move (secede) to wherever a 3rd world country will take them in but they can’t take the dirt of California with them as that land belongs to the US of A!

  8. Bad Brad; I don’t see what moonbeam is talking about. What flood emergency? Compared to what? Mid-western tornados? Gulf hurricanes? Summer fires? This is a joke.
    I hope Trump withholds all funding until the mexican left is driven out of office.
    I hope the petition to deport is a huge success.
    I’m hoping the Oroville dam will collapse and wash the entire bunch out to sea. (For those w/o a sense of humor, that’s sarcasm.)

  9. a non a moose,

    Brown asking for Fed money is bull shit. Yes we are getting a lot of rain. Minor problems. That damn at Oroville is not good. Currently 120K cfps coming in and 55k going out. A ton of snow above it, a warm week coming up, and more rain forcasted for Thursday. The town of Oroville, full of good conservatives, is right in the path. I’ve spoken to a couple people that I know up there and they are worried and not being told anything. We have a reader here, I think it’s GoldenFox, that lives there. I’d like to here what she has to say.
