Federal judge allows Trump to withhold grants to California as part of sanctuary city crackdown

A federal judge in Northern California has declined a request from California Attorney General Xavier Becerra to block the Trump administration’s decision to withhold a law enforcement grant to the state as part of its crackdown on states and jurisdictions that protect illegal immigrants.

Becerra asked for a preliminary injunction against the Trump administration's decision, but Judge William Orrick of the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California ruled against taking that step.

“The injury threatened is not irreparable,” Orrick wrote. “The amount of money at stake is small compared to the state’s budget. Payment is delayed, for the moment. The DOJ appears to be using its regular administrative process to decide whether it will follow its initial inclinations.”

The judge said at some point in the future, the case “may help define the contours of the state’s broad constitutional police powers under the Tenth Amendment and the federal government’s ‘broad, undoubted power over the subject of immigration and the status of aliens.’”

The Trump administration has been cracking down on cities and jurisdictions that offer protections for people in the U.S. illegally.

In July, Attorney General Jeff Sessions announced that cities and states would only be eligible to receive specific grants from the Justice Department if they follow specific requirements, including certifying compliance with federal immigration law.

To be eligible for the Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grants, or JAG grants, cities have to adhere to three criteria. They include giving 48-hour notice to the federal government before releasing anyone ICE wants the state to keep detained, and giving Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents access to detention facilities.

State and local officials must also provide personal information and release dates of illegal immigrants detained across the state...

Great news. As a Californian, I support this.

There maybe a glimmer of hope yet.

Liberals commit criminal sexual misconduct, set up a secret committee designed to steal tax dollars to defend / protect the criminals by paying off / silencing their victims...before it goes 'viral', Americans find out about it, and demand it be stopped / the payments end. (Which I do not think has actually happened yet.)

Liberals commit crimes by supporting / paying criminal cities who intentionally aid and abet criminals in violation of US Federal Law, Democrats stand with illegals over Americans to shut the government down in protest of the President enforcing the Constitution / US Law, and illegals / Dems fight cutting off paying criminal cities tax dollars...

SSDD....

Slowly but surely the Constitution and Rule of Law are being enforced again...and illegals are showing their displeasure with Democrats for allowing it to happen while not keeping their promise to pass a real 'DACA' law.

Dude, NOBODY is buying the fascism that you offer.

Do you remember back in 2010 when Arizona passed SB-1070?
But thanks to Obama suing Arizona, we now know that the Executive branch has plenary power when it comes to the enforcement of immigration laws.

In other words, California is screwed. Sorry Dems, California's sanctuary policy is screwed - PatriotRetort.com

On Tuesday, 3/6/2018 the DOJ filed a lawsuit against California immigrant sanctuary cities laws.

Trump Administration Sues California Over Immigration Laws

WASHINGTON — The Trump administration escalated what had been a war of words over California’s immigration agenda, filing a lawsuit late Tuesday that amounted to a pre-emptive strike against the liberal state’s so-called sanctuary laws.

The Justice Department sued California; Gov. Jerry Brown; and the state’s attorney general, Xavier Becerra, over three state laws passed in recent months, saying they made it impossible for federal immigration officials to do their jobs and deport criminals who were born outside the United States. The Justice Department called the laws unconstitutional and asked a judge to block them.

So to recap, Governor/King Gerry Brown and CA Attorney General now officially have their butts planted squarely on the hot plate.

All Politicians who create 'Sanctuary Cities' should be held accountable for all crimes committed by Illegals. Period, end of story.

Don’t they call that harboring? And that’s illegal

They should be arrested and prosecuted. They need to be held accountable.

why aren't they? how do we make that ask?

Asking Jeff Sessions to do his job is like asking a brick to float in a swimming pool. It may happen, but it will be a miracle.

California will tell Trump to suck it

Good. And Trump will tell California to suck it when they want their money.

We give more than we take. We will keep it u can get it from Mississippi or north Dakota.

Really? And when your government crashes, are you going to call North Dakota or Mississippi to bail you out?

They got nothing to offer. Where are they again?

What’s sad is that you have to do this to try and get a state to obey federal law.

it's what started the civil war.

Hey, Kalipornia... "If you mean to have a war, let it begin here."

You've already fired on Fort Sumter (enacting state-wide Sanctuary legislation).

For the opening retaliatory shot... a snap-shot ruling by the Supreme Court, striking down those state laws, and affirming Federal supremacy.

Toats bro. The ONLY way CA would prevail is for a lower court or the Supreme Court finding that our Constitution was ratified improperly. In fact, CA is totally hosed by ITS OWN CONSTITUTION. Read here: Codes Display Text

Article III Section 1: "The State of California is an inseparable part of the United States of America, and the United States Constitution is the supreme law of the land."

That's what you mean by a "snap-shot" ruling, yes? If the Constitution gives the federal government powers to regulate immigration into the United States, CA might as well throw in the towel right now. If I was Gov. Brown, my undershorts would be the same color as my name right about now...

They don't even read their own fucking constitution in CA. Not even the Legislators. Not even the Governor. Not even the Attorney General and he is a friggin' lawyer fer crissakes.

Also for fun and amusement, see also Article I, Section 7.5. Codes Display Text Voted that way by initiative process and still binding law. You know, since the State is insisting that laws its citizens pass by referendum overrule federal statutes or precedent. Interesting double standard, wouldn't you say?

We can't get liberal Presidents and liberals in the DOJ to follow the US Constitution. Why should we expect liberal California judges to abide by theirs?

This question will go before the SCOTUS.

It all comes down to the Supreme Court. We all know the courts are running the show now. Trump desperately needs to get one more Justice on the Court. With a 6-3 advantage, the Communist Globalists will be thwarted. Get the Supreme Court. That's the only way our nation and Constitution can be saved. God Bless Donald Trump.

May Ginsburg die any day now.

She's a disgrace to the country and to the court.

The sooner she dies, the sooner she can be composted and made to really contribute to society.
