3. "It's a great state to launch from!"

2. I'm impressed.

That is something I would not have expected.

[sheshe2]

5. I applaud them...

Not just for resisting, the snark was priceless!

[furtheradu]

4. 23 States say "HECK NO!" already!

LOVE IT!

[sheshe2]

9. BOOM!

Happy 4th of July America!

[furtheradu]

20. Hot Dayumm! TEXAS sez "HECK NO!"

WhodaTHOT? !?

6. They're stepping on their own states' rights!

[sheshe2]

7. Me thinks they are stepping in their own bullshit.

They need some hip waders!

[mcar]

8. Hoist with their own petard.

23. Exactly. Plenty of those on the right loudly proclaim fealty to classic federalism.

While the observant can easily see through their stance a lot of the time, this is a clearly cut test of such. There's no way anyone who decries the overreach of "Big Government" can agree to this request without sacrificing any claim to their previous positions.

[sheshe2]

29. misanthrope?

Good to see you.

[misanthrope]

37. Thanks

I haven't posted here in quite a while. These aren't normal times, though.

[sheshe2]

39. Yup, not normal at all.

[mcar]

30. They sure boxed themselves in

[BumRushDaShow]

10. K&R and let's hope this gets so much blowback

that they rescind the request.

[sheshe2]

12. It is up next on MSNBC!!!!!!

[BumRushDaShow]

13. I had turned the TV when I saw your post

and saw stuff about Iraq. But NOW it is coming up!

[sheshe2]

14. Cool...

Want to here what they have to say!

[wryter2000]

15. You rock, Mississippi. n/t

16. Credit where it's due. nt

17. This San Franciscan stands with my Mississippi Brothers and Sisters!

Let's Tear Down That Wall and stand together more often!

22. Thank you!

[George II]

24. Wow. That's beautiful. Has any state yet agreed to send him what he asked for? Looks like....

....more than half have already refused.

[sheshe2]

25. Some are sending only public data...some not at all.

I posted a list elsewhere...though probably out dated now. MSN just had RI and if you can believe it Arkansas saying. NO NO NO!

[George II]

26. Missouri, the home state of the guy who sent the letter has also refused to comply! See:

[sheshe2]

27. I posted elsewhere...

Texas told Donnie to take a hike, TEXAS! I saw that about Missouri as well. Cool!

[TomSlick]

32. Request for news

I heard Asa "express skepticism" but not clearly reject the request. Can you point me at newer news?

I'm concerned that the data in the Arkansas voter registration would be available under Arkansas' FOIA - which is one of the broadest in the country.

[sheshe2]

35. Just saw it on MSN, briefly.

[TomSlick]

36. Thanks

If the story is true, I will be equally surprised and pleased.

I would expect SoS Mark Martin to give Trump's hit squad whatever they wanted.

[ailsagirl]

28. So far, officials are essentially telling drumpf to drop dead

This is great!!

[BigmanPigman]

31. Preferably wearing a pair of cement shoes (I am joking).

[Hieronymus]

33. What will Trump do to insult the AG of all the states who refuse to comply?

[rurallib]

34. have Russians hack their computers?

put out nasty stories on the National Enquirer?

[Demtexan]

38. A republican co-worker is all upset over his private info being released.

I laughed at him.
