Re: time for CA to CAEXIT from the Union?

As CA is a nett contributor to the Federal Budget ...

California is going to need a massive bailout in the next two years. And you'd be surprised how many Americans would not miss CA if it left the Union.

The world of Big Tech has joined the legal showdown over Donald Trump's immigration ban, with a joint filing that argues the ban is not only illegal

Unfortunately, the travel ban IS legal. First, the United Nations admits that no country is obligated to admit a non-citizen. Second, the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965 gives the President broad powers to block non-residents coming in from another country by limiting visas as long as they do not specifically target a race, religion, or national origin except where public safety is concerned. Every European country except Greece has the exact same law. There is also the Alien and Sedition Acts of 1798, which grants the President the authority to suspend Visas from countries deemed a threat to the USA. It was modeled on a then existing British law.

This was the Boston decision.

The Seattle judge failed to give "full faith and etc." to the Boston decision. This is going to go to the Supreme Court who will settle the argument.
