Feds suing states - IL goes first
-
The Justice Department sued the state of Illinois and the city of Chicago on Thursday, accusing them of impeding the Trump administration’s immigration policies. The department seeks a court order to bar protections for immigrants that exist at the state and local level.
The lawsuit appears to be the first that the Justice Department has filed after vowing to investigate state and local officials for allegedly interfering with President Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown.
Mayor Johnson of Chicago is going to testify before Congress next week (I think). He's not fast on his feet. He agreed to appear before the lawsuit was filed. I wonder if that will be re-thought...

Our governor has a sense of humor.
