Breaking Late: Obama Judge Blocks Trump Admin From Withholding Funds From More Than 30 ‘Sanctuary Cities’
Gateway Pundit ^ | August 22, 2025 | Cristina Laila

A federal judge out of San Francisco on Friday blocked President Trump from pulling federal funds from ‘sanctuary cities.’

US District Judge William Orrick, and Obama appointee, blocked Trump from withholding funds from Chicago, Boston, Los Angeles and more than 30 other sanctuary cities.

The Associated Press reported:

A judge ruled late Friday the Trump administration cannot deny funding to Boston, Chicago, Denver, Los Angeles and 30 other cities and counties because of policies that limit cooperation with federal immigration efforts.

U.S. District Judge William Orrick in San Francisco extended a preliminary injunction blocking the administration from cutting off or conditioning the use of federal funds for so-called “sanctuary” jurisdictions. His earlier order protected more than a dozen other cities and counties, including San Francisco, Portland and Seattle.

..... Snip.....

“Here we go again,” Judge Orrick wrote in his 6-page order blasting Trump for his second round of executive orders aimed at ending the subsidization of open borders.

In 2017, Judge Orrick permanently blocked a similar executive order from Trump’s effort to defund sanctuary cities.

The judge said withholding funds from sanctuary jurisdictions is unconstitutional. He said it violates the Fifth and Tenth Amendments and also violates due process.

The New Supreme Court - the Northern District of California.

I’m surprised the Northern District of California hasn’t found the time to dissolve the old Supreme Court.

It should. These UNELECTED Dipsh*t Judges have taken over the executive and the legislative branches elected by the people of the United States. This government belongs to us, not a bunch of far-left, UNELECTED DNC goons in black robes and tiny brains.

All those who are shocked to hear this little judge set up this legal blockade please raise your hands.

Same with the one who rules they have to dismantle Alligator Alcatraz, dismantle generators and plumbing and protect wildlife.

On the last thread about little judges a person pointed out the SCOTUS can’t get rid of a judge, just post their wimpy “ruling” and watch the little judge defy it.

Said CONGRESS can remove judge.

Waiting for the aggressive and heroic Congress to act. /S

If they wait too long the people will abandon the system and start to act on their own.

The basic theory of the alleged “sanctuary cities” is overcome by the fact that the leaders and citizens of the places are DEFYING THE LAW AND BREAKING THE LAW.

At the very beginning, allowing ONE DAY of “sanctuary cities” and states was wrong. It allowed defiance of the law.

So if they can defy the law then can I defy the law, too?
Or others here? My sanctuary area is a bubble ten feet around me where I can enjoy life and disobey any law I wish.

I believe that these rogue Judges will soon be diagnosed with a relatively new clinical condition.

It shall be named after one of the most irritating, irrelevant, and chronically wrong Judges.

The new diagnosis category:

Boasbergers Syndrome.

After a brief involuntary 5150 at the local hospital, the “Judge” will be transferred to begin the mandatory treatment for Boasbergers Syndrome.

The mandatory treatment is four years of undergraduate study at Hillsdale College.

Any failed classes will have to be repeated. As such, if completion of the undergraduate studies takes longer than 4 years, it will be time well spent.

Vance is fsr ore active and openly conservative than any VP I’ve ever seen or read about. I’ve seen a number of them.

I only give an honest opinion. Fine with me if he’s president.
He talks too much and he’s young. Many will see him as a religious fanatic. Didn’t say that’s true, but he’s no Trump and he needs more experience.
Unfortunately, the American people don’t vote based on policies. They vote on personalities and general notions about the man, even if inaccurate.
My point is we can’t, of course, depend on continuous conservative rule. Too many in our country are too stupid.
