So a little liberal judge in California can declare what a national emergency is for the entire United States?
Judge blocks Trump from using billions in military funds for border wall
A federal judge on Friday issued a ruling blocking the Trump administration from tapping billions of dollars in military funds to construct a wall on the United States's southern border.
U.S. District Judge Haywood Gilliam issued the permanent injunction in a California federal court, after initially ruling last month to temporarily halt the administration's use of military funds for the border wall.
It's such a terrible national emergencey that the CiC can trip off to England for a family holiday, Japan, Korea, Mar A Lago...yikes...who's protecting the American People in this National Emergency?!!!!
Mind you, Trump did admit that it wasn't really an emergency at all...
The key quote came when the Q&A portion started. Trump was challenged by NBC’s Peter Alexander on why he couldn’t bend Congress to his will — as he
previously said a president should be able to do — rather than take unilateral action.
“I didn’t need to do this,” Trump said. “But I’d rather do it much faster.”
Trump then blamed 2020 politics for Democrats not supporting wall and repeated: "I just want to do it faster.”
If it’s truly an emergency, how can you say you didn’t need to declare an emergency? Trump basically admitted that this was a choice for him — a matter of expediency, quite literally — and not something required by events on the ground.
