When Barack Obama announced his intentions to resettle thousands of supposed “refugees” across the U.S., many brash-talking GOP Governors immediately denounced the plans, saying that refugees from dangerous parts of the world would not be welcome in their respective states.
What most didn’t do was actually take any action on the matter.
Tennessee’s legislature, however, is stepping up and making the first move, taking Obama’s leftist administration to court over the resettlement plans.
If it goes forward, this case may force an incredibly significant president to be set by the courts. Until now, foreign affairs are legally understood as the sole responsibility of the federal government. Should Tennessee win this challenge, it would put states in a position of power that they have until now never held in the history of The United States.
It’s also for this reason that the challenges that stand in front of Tennessee may be insurmountable. While they intend to fight the administration using the powers afforded to the state by the Tenth Amendment, this Supreme Court has many times ignored the rights imparted to the states in favor of an increasingly large, increasingly powerful federal government.

How can WE? The whole govt is corrupt and turning a blind eye
Kill them before they can bred .. they are insects waiting to be swatted back to where they came from
They need to get out of the USA now !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Do it
Tennessee needs to push harder at this traitor. He has committed so many crimes against this country and its people he needs to be impeached and tried for treason, murder, aiding and helping the enemy with millions of dollars and a lot of weapons. Don’t understand why this cannot happen other than the fact the whole government is as corrupt as he is.
You go Tennessee or behind you break that bastard
Thank you Joel
no where in the constitution does it mention term limits for congress., only that the senotors serve for a 6 yr term and reps for 2 yr terms. It does not say they have unlimited terms
Clif Hart, you are right!
