RUSH: You see this, we\u2019re talking about California secession yesterday and how I told you it\u2019s never gonna happen. The Democrat Party would actually go to war to stop California from seceding. You take the 55 electoral votes in California away from the Democrats every presidential election. It\u2019s never gonna happen, folks. They might be dreaming about it out there.<\/p>\n

The chief justice of California, the theoretically highest state law enforcement official, the chief justice of the California Supreme Court, Tani Cantil-Sakauye is fast emerging as one of the Trump administration\u2019s most vocal critics in the judiciary. On Monday Tani Cantil-Sakauye used her annual state of the judiciary address to argue that the rule of law was being challenged amid the Trump administration\u2019s immigration crackdown. She didn\u2019t mention Trump by name, but she told California state lawmakers that the rule of law means that we as a people are governed by laws and rules and not by a monarch.<\/p>\n

\"\"Folks, this is insane. She was talking about the immigration crackdown and Trump\u2019s enforcing the law as violating the rule of law, because San Francisco and Los Angeles are sanctuary cities and Trump has nothing to say about it, because that\u2019s local, that\u2019s federalism, and this is monarchy. For Trump to come in here and say that sanctuary cities are against the law — and they clearly are. In fact, let me find something here. I\u2019ve got the specific statute as written about this. I may have to find it during the break. I don\u2019t want to waste time rustling through papers here.<\/p>\n

An aspect of the statute, this I remember. Try this. If you are running a sanctuary city in violation of federal law and if anybody is murdered, anybody is killed by an illegal alien in a sanctuary city, local police and law enforcement can be sent to prison if that law is enforced. So here you have the chief justice of the state of California claiming that enforcing federal law when it comes to immigration is akin to monarchy. And what she really means is tyranny. There\u2019s all kinds of different monarchs. Queen Elizabeth is a monarch. Prince Charles wants to be a monarch but he may not get there. King Juan Carlos is a monarch.<\/p>\n

One royal family rulers, one person rulers, they\u2019re tyrants. Depending on how they rule, they\u2019re tyrants. I mean, this is beyond insane, but this is a California state Supreme Court chief judge. Trump trying to enforce the nation\u2019s immigration laws on the books since 1965, amended in 1986. Laws that were passed by bipartisan Congresses, signed into law by both Democrat and Republican presidents, LBJ and Ronaldus Magnus. The only monarch that we\u2019ve had close to a monarch we\u2019ve had is Obama when he was using illegal executive orders to stop enforcing these laws and to pass out work permits and citizenship like candy.<\/p>\n

And where was it, Nebraska, little old Nebraska, people don\u2019t think anything untoward could possibly go on in Nebraska. But Nebraska has set up a charity, sort of a welcome wagon for refugees and illegals. And a bunch of Democrats have gotten together out there and they have created welcome baskets for newly arrived refugees.<\/p>\n

If you ever moved into a town, neighborhood, and here comes the welcome wagon welcoming you to the neighborhood, and they bring you a bunch of cheesy, chintzy little presents. Well, they may not be chintzy. But it\u2019s an effort to welcome you to the neighborhood. Well, the Democrats in Nebraska are doing this statewide. And you know what\u2019s in these welcome baskets? Voter registration forms for illegal immigrants and refugees.<\/p>\n

\"\"And when they were called on it, the Democrats said, “Hey, hey, we haven\u2019t done anything here. We\u2019re just trying to speed up the process by which they learn about democracy,” proving what this is all about anyway, illegal immigration, sanctuary cities, what it\u2019s all about is increasing Democrat voter registration and voter rolls. But this chief judge said we are living in a time of civil rights unrest, eroding public trust in our institutions, economic anxiety, and unprecedented polarization.<\/p>\n

Again, this is Tani Cantil-Sakauye. She said, “Our values, our rules, our laws are being called into question, and all three branches of government and the free press are in the crosshairs.” It literally is insane. She is the one advocating lawlessness. She is the one encouraging the violation of the rule of law.<\/p>\n

She is the one, along with most of the California legislature, California assembly, they\u2019re doing everything they can to thwart federal immigration law. You know the kicker? She\u2019s a Republican. She was appointed in 2010 by the Terminator, by Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger.<\/p>\n

“Massachusetts state Rep. Michelle DuBois posted a warning to illegal immigrants on her Facebook page Tuesday about upcoming Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids that are rumored to be taking place in the area. In the post, DuBois wrote, ‘ICE raid in Brockton (MA) on 3\/28.\u2019 ‘I got the following information from my friend in the Latin community: I have a message for the immigrant community of Brockton.<\/p>\n

“Please be careful on Wednesday 29. ICE will be in Brockton on that day. If you are undocumented don\u2019t go out on the street,\u2019 DuBois, who represents the 10th district, added. ‘If there is a knock on the door of your house and you don\u2019t know who it is, don\u2019t open the door. I ask you to be careful.\u2019 The Democrat included a phone number for immigrants to call if they are detained by ICE. She also followed up her original post with a chart that explains ‘what to do if ICE comes to your door.'”<\/p>\n

You want to talk about violating the rule of law? You want to talk about threatening the legal system of the United States? That\u2019s all on the modern-day Democrat Party.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: So here you go. I found it. The Illegal Immigration Reform Act of 1996 requires states and municipalities to cooperate with federal authorities on immigration requests. As you know, these requests are being denied. Federal agencies like ICE and other immigration enforcement agencies are asking for assistance from state and local authorities in California, sanctuary cities, illegal immigration havens and so forth. The Illegal Information Reform Act of \u201996 requires states and municipalities to cooperate.<\/p>\n

I am now reading from the statute. “A state or local government entity or official may not prohibit, or in any way restrict, any government entity or official from sending to, or receiving from, the Immigration and Naturalization Service information regarding the citizenship or immigration status, lawful or unlawful, of any individual.” Title VIII, U.S. Code section 1373.<\/p>\n

\"\"It\u2019s exactly what\u2019s happening. It\u2019s specifically proscribed. It\u2019s against the law. And the chief justice of California claims that it\u2019s Trump enforcing this law destroying the rule of law. There\u2019s this punishment in the law. I\u2019m paraphrasing, but if someone dies because a city official decided not to comply with the law — there\u2019s a name you could associate with this. Steinle, San Francisco. If somebody else, if somebody dies because a city official decides not to comply with federal law, the maximum penalty is life behind bars.<\/p>\n

These people are violating the law. If prosecuted and convicted, life sentences for what they\u2019re doing. And yet they claim Trump is assaulting the rule of law. Things are upside down. And this is why I\u2019m sure my buddy says, “You can talk about the Democrats losing all the elections you want, but the picture every day is they\u2019re winning and we\u2019re losing and we\u2019re tired of hearing you talk about all these Democrat losses.”<\/p>\n

But they are losing. They\u2019re losing election after election after election. Look it, folks, I can\u2019t help it if the Republican Party doesn\u2019t know what to do with that. I cannot help it if the Republican Party does not know how to capitalize on the Democrat Party losing. And if you think that the only solution here is dirty tricks and start fighting fire with the media, who\u2019s gonna do it?<\/p>\n

Trump doing it alone isn\u2019t gonna accomplish anything, and I can tell you right now, Republicans in Washington, DC, have no stomach for it, no desire, if you bring it up, they\u2019re gonna pooh-pooh you, walk out of the room, start ignoring you, or what have you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
