One major part of the President’s recent shutdown showdown announcement was a dispute over funding to continue construction of the border wall. And the word “continue” is important here because portions of the project are already underway, in addition to the previous submissions of wall design samples. Much of that work took place in Southern California and now the city of San Diego has a message for all of the construction contractors who have taken part in the effort. Don’t bother applying for any more city contracts because you’re going to be on their blacklist. (Free Beacon)

Quote
As President Donald Trump renews his battle with Congress to fund his multi-billion-dollar border wall with Mexico, Democratic lawmakers and liberal groups in California have stepped up their campaigns to blacklist businesses involved in building the border wall.

San Diego is the latest city poised to join the list of California municipalities demonstrating their opposition to Trump’s promised border wall by punishing businesses involved in working or even bidding on the wall prototypes or other border-wall projects.

The majority Democratic San Diego City Council, in a 3 to 1 vote last week, directed city officials to draft an ordinance requiring contractors competing for city projects to disclose any past and present work, as well as planned bids, on parts of Trump’s planned border wall.

Love to see that one go to court.  The city (I would hope) would lose bigly.

I could be wrong but I thought it was Orange county excluding the city!

Pull out gun, shoot self.
This is why we have trucks and buses.
San Diego probably has no one that can operate a monkey wrench. (The Marines are busy)

Wow this is childish.  Did it ever occur to San Diegans that conservatives spend a lot of money in their city?  If we aren't welcome, then maybe it's time to look elsewhere.

California should rename itself as the Stupid State.

Just like all other urban areas in this state San Diego has been overrun with illegals whom Sacramento has invited to vote.

There are few people on this planet whom I will celebrate when they are finally 'called home'. Jerry Brown is one.

Virtually ALL large cities across the entire country, vote democrat. Without illegals to the degree in California.

San Diego is like the 8th largest city in America.

One fact sets San Diego apart. Great Weather.

And any American opposing illegal immigration, need only look back to the great amnesty of 1986.

Ah yes..... job discrimination (and other kinds) against anyone who doesn't "think" in lock-step with the idiot left.  In a perfect world.... the GOP (while still in majority control power) ....would now pass legislation prohibiting any such discrimination (or blacklisting) against people or contractors for merely working on a project the leftist morons don't like or approve of.   Alas... we are nowhere near in a perfect world.

Easy solution. Give it to a contractor that does little or no business in SD, or Cali in general.

And that was supposed to be for 1.5 million illegals. Less the great multiplier, chain migration of course.

Can anyone imagine what an amnesty involving 15-20 million will look like?

Well.... when I say "the left".... that also includes the globalist RINO schmucks, as well.  lol 

As far as I'm concerned, they all have America's worst interests at heart.... whether by intention or by cluelessness or even by disastrous "good intentions".   They are all a danger to America as founded and ergo, to our future freedom.

Usually a company bidding for construction work, will be asked to submit their recent projects.

Size, type, technologies, locations, etc.

Given what's happening in San Diego, I think the Federal government can take into consideration the PERSONNEL and MANAGEMENT of this New Company to know that it's just a way of getting around the idiocy the city has created.

Up until very recently San Diego was relatively normal. Things have changed very quickly around here.

The GOP nominally represents consrrvatism, which believes in federalism and state/local rights.  I wouldn't want the feds interfering in local affairs.
