President-elect Donald Trump never won the hearts and minds of the people in California, losing to his opponent Hillary Clinton there by 4.2 million popular votes. So it should come as no surprise Golden State leaders are promising to fight him, and the purported sweeping conservative agenda the GOP has prepared, every step of the way. And they’ve hired former President Barack Obama’s Attorney General Eric Holder to help them do it.
The New York Times reports that Democrats in the California state legislature are “girding for four years of potential battles” with Trump and, in a fit of ideological pique, have retained Holder — now a prominent Washington attorney — to help them “safeguard the values of the people of California.” From The Times:
Kevin de León, the Democratic leader of the Senate, said in an interview…he expected California to challenge Washington — and defend itself from policies instituted in Washington — on issues including the environment, immigration and criminal justice. He said California Democrats decided to turn to Mr. Holder as they watched Mr. Trump assemble his cabinet and begin to set the tone for his presidency.

Treason.
There is still the issue of 'Fast and Furious' to be dealt with..
Those who are of Caucasian descent, beware. Especially police
I think it's a great idea! Cut off ALL Federal Funds and let Kalifonica to sink even further!
Stupid. Holder is not a smart man either.
Trump blast this Fool.
What a bunch of jerks, let California sink into the ocean, good place for it.
Trump needs to open up the fast and furious issue on this race baiting POS
De-fund the idiots. They will understand that language.
Yep.
Remember x president Obama is moving there. California can have them.
If as a white person we made the comments they have and taken positions
on riots like they did we would be a racist. You figure.
Think Holder still has a Contempt of Congress charge to face.
Finally a Dept of Justice again, instead of Holder and Lynch Dept of JustUs. He may have his hands full defending himself, let alone California. Won't be much good to them if he's disbarred, which should be a starting point.
