Sanctuary cities are against the law in this country; yet, there are countless cities and maybe even one state that don't give a damn what other cities and states think, and which could care even less what the law is... they're going to be sanctuaries, period.
Since we're supposedly a democracy, the federal government has an obligation to ensure that the voting processes, particularly for federal offices, are conducted fairly and squarely and that every vote counts equally. Yet, attempts at voter fraud and vote rigging have abounded for decades, and the 2016 elections seem to have been no exception, with many known instances of multiple registrations, registering of illegal aliens and registrations of cemetery residents. Now, the Trump administration wants to investigate the extent of such activities and according to at least one estimate some 26 states have adamantly stated they will not allow it. In other words, it's none of our business whether or not our elections are clean and legitimate.
Our country has a Constitution which has ruled our governmental processes since 1789. Now, we have a major political party which has decided it doesn't care what the Constitution says, they are going to run things the way they want, including choosing the President without any democratic rights of opposing parties to put up candidates for the office. And, God forbid if another party runs a candidate and that candidate happens to win, they have the right to cancel the election and remove the winner.
In a complete upside-down turn of events, a federal judge has now ruled that you can come into the U.S. as an illegal alien, break the law and get thrown out of the country, and get paid for it... $190,000 as a matter of fact... because someone else complied with the law and blew the whistle.
It appears to me that we are now just one step removed from becoming a Venezuela.
That's MY AMERICAN OPINION, respectfully submitted.
