Newsom Threatens to Block California Tax Payments to Federal Government

California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) threatened Friday that his state would stop tax payments to the federal government, after news reports suggested President Donald Trump was thinking of cutting funds to the state.
quote:
As Breitbart News noted earlier in the day, reports emerged suggesting that the Trump White House was considering cutting federal funding to California due to its challenges to, and defiance of, federal policy.
quote:
It is not clear what constitutional authority Newsom has to withhold federal taxes on behalf of individuals, businesses, and other entities within the state. Trump’s authority to withhold funding is far clearer.
A tax revolt by California would recall the “nullification” doctrine popular in some Southern states before the Civil War. It could also trigger a tax revolt by Californians against their own state taxes, which are very high.

Good old Gavin Newsome might want to go check out the voting patterns of his actual taxpayers before he gets so bold. Even in California he might find they are less sympathetic to him than he might assume

Am I the only one that kind of wants to see a fight between a state and the federal government about tax revenue and fedgov payments?

Yep. It is a complete myth that California is a net producer for the USA. California is completely dependent on being an international port of entry into the USA and will completely fall apart without USA funding, which is why Newsom is lashing out.
The opposite is absolutely NOT true and the reality is that the USA can simply take over those ports and remove California from the equation completely. This would remove Calfifornia from what amounts to over 70% of the state's GDP.
