Checks and balances

[Aries]

Our checks and balances working beautifully. Another big promise blocked.

"In his ruling, Judge William H. Orrick sided with Santa Clara County, the city of San Francisco and other jurisdictions, who argued that a threat to take away federal funds from cities that do not cooperate with some federal immigration enforcement could be unconstitutional."


"The Counties have demonstrated that they are likely to succeed on the merits of their challenge to Section 9(a) of the Executive Order, that they will suffer irreparable harm absent an injunction, and that the balance of harms and public interest weigh in their favor," Orrick wrote.

"This is an absolutely huge win," James Williams, counsel to Santa Clara County, told CNN. "The threat to withhold funds from state and local governments in this executive order is dead."

"Faced with the law, the Trump administration was force to back down," San Francisco city attorney Dennis Herrera said in a statement. "This is why we have courts -- to halt the overreach of a president and an attorney general who either don't understand the Constitution or choose to ignore it."

It will be overturned. It has no legal basis.

I don't understand why people would want the US to be the only nation on Earth with uncontrolled porous borders. It makes no sense.

Why do people fall for this globalist propaganda?

One judge out of 50 states who also donated $200k to Obama in clear display of political bias. The U.S cannot and will not be handcuffed by a few unelected judges who are playing God, exercising more power than the president, but with nary a vote earned.

Legal challenge, government victory, judge exposed as a biased, anti-American with a microscope over all future decisions.

God Bless America.

The "ninth appeals court" is the most reversed court in history.

So the traitors want to defy the federal government and the laws of this country and don't expect repercussions in their defiance.

Why should the federal government fund traitors who defy federal law?
