I never heard of this guy until his standoff with nurse stompy feet, but I'm liking him more and more. And in Maine of all places.

I wish more governors would cut off funding to sanctuary jurisdictions.

I do not know who this governor is, but I sure the hell admire him. Takes guts to go against the status quo.

Something has got to be done, obviously our President does not care.

Status quo's changing. It's just that the big dogs are starting to get the message IMHO.

We have to prove that we are not a doormat. If we turn the blind eye to illegally entering our Country; why should we also pay?

Listen; many of us love 'free'! If I hear of a work safety meeting and free food - my butt will be there. I don't necessarily like to listen to the safety minutes - but I love free. I am kind of interested in how many employees would show up without the offer of free food? At least it makes the numbers look good for the employers - we all attend the monthly safety meeting.

Illegal immigration is, in many respects, just like the employees getting the free safety food. They do not want to listen to our message - they will not adapt to our standards/customs and learn our language. They want free - free housing, free money, free healthcare, free education and anything else the dummies will pay for. In the case of the safety meals; our employers can keep down their insurance rates. With illegal immigration the few taxpayers get to pay for everybody - with no benefits! They might even loose their job to the illegal free loaders that are reaping the benefits.

I really don't think Maine was ever a popular destination for illegal immigrants.

Wonder if Holder will bring suit as one of his final acts.
