connecticut governor daniel malloy will not comply, going after sanctuary states in this case. you say the president is within his rights denying that state federal funds. >> of course. it is a federal issue that was laid out clearly in the constitution, the immigration issues are federal issues. these people are behaving the way southern states did in 1861 when abraham lincoln was inaugurated. they have started a second civil war and it will not be fought with guns, i hope. it will be fought in the court but they are lawbreakers and should be ashamed of themselves. federal law prevails and they cannot interpose themselves like southern states tried to do in the civil rights era between federal law and their citizens. that is not allowed, that is not the constitution. neil:malloy in connecticut, a message to state police, puts them -- don't do this. that is weird. >> let's be clear, the federal government does certain things in the constitution, it is embedded in the law. civil rights is one of those things. civil rights mandates on states protecting the border is another one o
