Liberals waste no time defending their own. Our question is simply this…
Since California is a state within the ‘United’ States, and its governor Jerry Brown took an oath swearing to ‘bear true faith and allegiance’ to the U.S. Constitution, does an official act (of his) BETRAYING that sworn allegiance fall under federal auspices?
An American state BY DEFINITION is a construct of the Constitution’s Preamble:
“We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.”
Further, within the Constitution, Art. I, section 10: “No State shall enter into any Treaty, Alliance, or Confederation…” Granting illegal aliens sanctuary is an unlawful alliance…
…especially when you consider giving sanctuary must violate federal law in order to do so. So, if a State official enters into an unlawful alliance with foreign nationals and in doing so violates federal law, seems like those officials could be in federal hot water.
Is there a constitutional lawyer in the house? (Preferably, one loyal to the Constitution.)
