That is right I saw 3 of them on TV last night. The Governor of CA and on down the line. All defiant as a drunk lord.

If it was at all possible Trump should send in the military and relieve the traitors of their jobs via federal charges. Put 'Mad Dog' in control of overseeing the cleanup. But in reality, I think L.A. is too far gone and already lost.

Traitors? Putin's puppet identifying traitors. Oh yeah, that was good for a laugh.

In an interview on NPR LA's Mayor said the following:

NPR Interviewer: "Has your view changed at all as President-elect Trump's proposals have changed. He initially said on the campaign trail, I want to deport all 11 million or so people who were in the country illegally. More recently, he said, I just want to focus on people who are here who are criminals. He overstated that number. He said 2 or 3 million, but immigration experts say it's several hundred thousand people who actually, in some cases, have felony convictions. Do you have a problem with moving them out of the country?"

Garcetti: "No. I think that we have participated in much of that, even with the Obama administration. We should be focused on violent criminals that are in our midst. And I think no responsible mayor would ever say no to the deportation of folks who have committed violent crimes in their communities who come under our custody. That's something that we do today."

Conflict Over Immigration Brews Between U.S. Cities And Feds : NPR
I would like to see all illegals deported but I know that isn't practical and/or fair for the anchor babies but I see another solution for this problem...

The steps I would take:

1) build wall or beef up border security.
2) Amnesty non-violent illegals.
3) With help of local authorities Deport violent illegals and repeat offenders of lesser crimes.
4) Remove sanctuary status of all cities. Any new illegal immigrants should be thrown out immediately for breaking immigration laws.

Putin is the liberals answer for everything now. Obama was the puppet of the entire EU, Mexico, and every terrorist country in the middle east and Africa. How did that work out?

I don't trust Putin, but I also don't think fostering a hostile relationship with Russia is a good idea. When did the left become such Warhawks?

The whole Putin narrative was to shift the attention away from the DNC/Podesta Wikileaks and subsequent loss of the election. Instead of cleaning out the trash the dems are deflecting blame and moving on like business as usual.
