Supreme Court Gives Trump Bad News: Refuses To Hear His Challenge To California’s ‘Sanctuary State’ Laws

In a 7-2 vote , the Supreme Court gave President Donald Trump some bad news on Monday when it refused to hear his administration ’ s challenge to the legality of California ’ s “ sanctuary state ” laws .

thepoliticalinsider--2020-06-15--New Video Shows Damage Done To Minneapolis Sheraton After Being Turned Into Leftist ‘Sanctuary’

According to a report from the Minnesota Reformer , over 200 homeless people took over a Sheraton hotel located just blocks from where George Floyd died and turned it into a “ commune ” during the recent riots .
They ’ ve since been kicked out by the hotel proprietors , and new video has been released showing the devastated condition they left the hotel in .
It ’ s hard to imagine that Americans would wreak this degree of destruction within their own country .
Watch the following video : Earlier this month , left-leaning Vice wrote an article @ @ @ @ @ @ @ nature of the event—practically glorifying it .
The piece indicates that “ volunteers negotiated the takeover of the hotel with the support of the hotel ’ s owners on May 29.
” Vice goes on to say that the “ shared living space ” was being run like a commune and that residents were running their own meetings where they “ collectively determined their needs and wants ” and communicated them with volunteers .
One volunteer tweeted on June 2 : “ The sanctuary is controlled by the community .
Residents are running @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and what they want with the support of the coordinators/volunteers .
It ’ s harm reduction .
It ’ s mutual aid .
It ’ s community control.
” The hotel owners have since reclaimed their property , and the video showing the condition the “ sanctuary ” was left in shows a very different picture than what the unicorn-and-rainbow leftists tried to paint in recent weeks .
The hotel is essentially in ruins .
It looks more like a hotel in war-torn Baghdad than anything you ’ d ever expect to see @ @ @ @ @ @ @ leftists really consider a “ sanctuary ” ?
Is this the vision they have for all of America ?
Imagine if Trump ’ s supporters did something like this in cities across America .
The mainstream media would be having a collective meltdown .
Instead , the media rarely even reports stories like this one .
On the rare occasion they do , it ’ s generally downplayed like an isolated event , and they go out of their way to distance the Democratic Party from the leftists who do this type of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ better : Vote accordingly .

On Sunday , Republican Tim Scott appeared on CBS ’ s “ Face the Nation , ” where the South Carolina senator explained that there are three major police reforms he would like to see that he believes Congress can reach bipartisan agreement on .
Sen. Tim Scott Lays Out Three Major Police Reforms He Believes the Country Needs “ Well , there are three major parts of it : we have to have all the information .
Today , only 40 percent of law enforcement departments are actually providing information to the DOJ , ” Scott explained to host @ @ @ @ @ @ @ percent as related to serious bodily injury and death.
” “ When the officer uses force , we need to have all the information , ” Scott said .
“ I ’ ve been working on this , Margaret , for five years.
” “ A second thing we have to do is look at training and tactics , ” he continued .
“ If we do that , we can certainly deescalate the situation and make sure that the officer and the suspect go home.
” For part three , Scott said @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it is officer misconduct .
If we can drill into officer misconduct , we do it on the local level , House has been talking about doing it on the state level , the president ’ s executive order talks about doing it on a national level.
” Brennan also asked Scott what he thought of ending “ qualified immunity , ” which protects police officers from civil suits , an idea Democrats have pushed for .
“ Well , there are two ways that you can deal with that , ” Scott @ @ @ @ @ @ @ – and the president sent the signal that qualified immunity is off the table .
They see that as a poison pill on our side – we could use a decertification of [ the ] officer , except the law enforcement unions say that ’ s a poison pill.

On Sunday, Republican Tim Scott appeared on CBS’s “Face the Nation,” where the South Carolina senator explained that there are three major police reforms he would like to see that he believes Congress can reach bipartisan agreement on.
Sen. Tim Scott Lays Out Three Major Police Reforms He Believes the Country Needs
“Well, there are three major parts of it: we have to have all the information. Today, only 40 percent of law enforcement departments are actually providing information to the DOJ,” Scott explained to host Margaret Brennan. “We need 100 percent as related to serious bodily injury and death.”
“When the officer uses force, we need to have all the information,” Scott said. “I’ve been working on this, Margaret, for five years.”

“A second thing we have to do is look at training and tactics,” he continued. “If we do that, we can certainly deescalate the situation and make sure that the officer and the suspect go home.”
For part three, Scott said, “And the third part of it is officer misconduct. If we can drill into officer misconduct, we do it on the local level, House has been talking about doing it on the state level, the president’s executive order talks about doing it on a national level.”

Sen. Scott on ‘Qualified Immunity’
Brennan also asked Scott what he thought of ending “qualified immunity,” which protects police officers from civil suits, an idea Democrats have pushed for.
“Well, there are two ways that you can deal with that,” Scott responded. “From the Republican perspective – and the president sent the signal that qualified immunity is off the table. They see that as a poison pill on our side – we could use a decertification of [the] officer, except the law enforcement unions say that’s a poison pill.”
“We’re going to have to find a path that helps us reduce misconduct within the officers but, at the same time we know any poison pill in legislation means we get nothing done,” Scott said. “That sends a wrong signal, perhaps the worst signal, right now in America.”
Scott added, “I think we’re going to have legislation that can be negotiated that gets us to the place where something becomes law that actually makes a difference. That’s got to be the goal.”

Over the weekend Ukrainian government officials announced they have intercepted a $6 million bribe attempt intended to stop a state criminal investigation into the president of energy giant Burisma.
The firm is steeped in controversy because Hunter Biden, the son of de facto Democrat presidential nominee Joe Biden, once had a seat on the company’s board even though he had no experience whatsoever in the energy field.
He joined the Burisma board in 2014, when his father was still vice president and the main figure in U.S. relations with Ukraine. He left the position in 2018.
As the U.S. election cycle heats up over the summer and the national nominating conventions take place, scrutiny over the Biden (both father and son) relationship to Burisma may become an issue used by the Trump campaign to negatively affect the way voters see the former vice president.
This is especially true because there is video of Biden bragging of how he got the prosecutor who was leading the probe into his son’s firm fired; the then-vice president said they could possibly lose a billion dollars in U.S. funding.
Former Ukrainian prosecutor-general Viktor Shokin has claimed he was pushed out by Joe Biden’s threat of delaying the $1 billion loan to the country, to prevent him from investigating Hunter Biden’s role at Burisma.
The obvious quid quo pro stands in stark contrast to the unsuccessful charges brought against President Donald Trump in the impeachment trial in the Senate earlier this year. At the outset of that trial, President Trump was acquitted on all charges and exonerated on the issue.
The Ukrainian national anti-corruption prosecutor Nazar Kholodnitsky and the head of the national anti-corruption bureau, Artem Sytnik, said the bribe was intended to encourage their offices to halt a probe of Mykola Zlochevsky, the head of Burisma and a former minister of ecology.
Zlochevsky was accused of using his government position for personal gain. Post Soviet states have a recent history of corruption at most levels of government. Russia has also been plagued with criminal oligarchs since the downfall of the Soviet Union in 1991.
To have an American presidential candidate, not to mention a former vice president, mixed up in this kind of foreign corruption would be problematic for U.S.-Ukrainian relations under a possible Biden administration, as Biden would be open for compromise if details of his dealings, or those of his son, on sensitive matters regarding Burisma ever saw the light of day.
Three individuals, including a high-ranking tax service official, have been detained in connection with the attempted bribe, officials said Saturday.
