    Judge smacks down Trump administration’s effort to pressure sanctuary cities
    A big blow to the Justice Department's immigration crackdown.

    A judge has ruled that a law used by the Department of Justice to cut funding to sanctuary cities and states is unconstitutional, dealing a blow to the Trump administration’s efforts to force California to cooperate with its immigration crackdown.

    According the Associated Press, the judge in the case, William Orrick also ordered the administration to give California the $28 million it had previously withheld.

    The AP also noted that Judge Orrick in his ruling on Friday agreed with California’s argument that being compelled to cooperate with U.S. immigration officials made it harder for local law enforcement to serve their communities was a compelling reason to strike down the law.
     
  2. Heh. Another ruling by a Nineth Circus Court?

    Beautiful. Guess where it will eventually end up when it is appealed?

    Can you spell, Alito, Gorsuch, Roberts, Thomas and KAVANAUGH boys and giirls?

    Judge halts Trump's insurance mandate for immigrants


    A federal judge in Oregon blocked President Donald Trump's bid to deny immigrants visas unless they buy health insurance within 30 days of entering the country or otherwise show they can cover their medical costs.

    U.S. District Court Judge Michael Simon issued an order on Tuesday to stop the State Department from enforcing a policy that officials unveiled in late October under a mandate from President Donald Trump, and which could drastically curtail the ability of people to legally migrate to the United States.

    Simon noted that the requirement that immigrants buy unsubsidized insurance — meaning they couldn't get financial assistance through Obamacare — barred poor people from entering the country, which he said clearly infringed on the law.

    "The proclamation is anticipated to affect approximately 60 percent of all immigrant visa applicants," the judge wrote. "The president offers no national security or foreign relations justification for this sweeping change in immigration law."

    They should take that Judge Orrick and throw his ass in jail. I know that this is old. But, this is not how this country is suppose to work.

    This is a great example of why it was so important for Trump to have been elected. He has nominated so many judges. There are too many liberal activist judges trying to pass law from the bench. That is not why the judges are there.

    But it's 'Murica. We the taxpayer have always opened up our arms to the poor, the weak, the wretched in spirit, and provided them with free shit from our pocketbooks, while they provide nothing in return by not paying taxes and having 7 children in a few years' time. Somehow...

    Not that it would be the 1st time that cons fail to uphold the constitution.
