National Emergency law overrides this, nice try. They will win as long as they fight this

[DoughtyOne]

Thanks. That’s probably a sound point.

The funds had been previously appropriated to the DOD, and not yet spent, when Trump had the DOD divert those funds to the border wall. They were not DOD funds covered by the appropriations bill that restricted the use of THOSE funds from being spent on the border wall. - If my memory serves me correct.

Or maybe just line them up at the wall.

Every time I read this kind of crap, I hope that these asshole judges and politicians get a visit from an MS13 gang.

[LibertyWoman]

[DoughtyOne]

Thank you...

I checked with the boys, and they allowed as how they’ve got enough extra piano wire for “Resistance Davey” here...

[SoFloFreeper]

the judge is wrong. Presidents for years have used their discretion, signing statements, and authority to choose where to prioritize law enforcement.

if others have done it, this one can do it.

i look for low level district thug to be over turned.

I think you are wrong. This judge has no authority to determing what is and what isn’t a national emergency — that is the sole responsibility of the President. Second, the Congress established the rules/law regarding the President’s authority to do things under a national emergency and Trump followed those to a T. Those proceedured included the ability of the Congress to vote on what the president was doing, including moving money from one pot to another and to try to override any veto the President had. They have used that proceedure twice and were vetoed. These a-holes in congress pass laws and then when they are used against them, they cry like little babies and seek their biased democrat judges to help them out.

When is Judge Nap going to MSNBC.

Not sure about Nap but Shep Smith just quit Fox News.

I expect him to show up on CNN or MSNBC next week.

I thought it was the President who had the authority to deem what was and what wasn't an emergency. Not some jerkoff political hack judge. Maybe I was misinformed.

[fhayek]

It seems to me that any legislation that forbades this or forbades that takes a back seat to a national emergency. I mean, if a law says that the military cannot be stationed at, say the southern border, BUT an invading force masses on the other side, the law that forbades it is countervailing to the national interest. Right?

Coulter....book of the week club
Top changes 52 times / year.

[hal ogen]

Don’t these “judges” realize that they are undermining “judges” If political nitwits rule such as this, no one with even one functioning brain cell will have any respect for “judges”.

[fhayek]

In 2019, the legislature has become a court, and the court has become a legislature.

Trump, as an executive needs to assert more than ever. The future of the country is at stake.

[Delta 21]

This wasnt an Executive Order.

It was an Emergency Declaration by the President.

Judges dont have standing.

Coulter AND rintintin! LOL!
