The city of Seattle sued U.S. President Donald Trump's administration on Wednesday over its executive order seeking to withhold federal funds from "sanctuary cities," arguing it amounted to unconstitutional federal coercion.
Seattle Mayor Ed Murray told reporters the Constitution forbade the federal government from pressuring cities, “yet that is exactly what the president’s order does. Once again, this new administration has decided to bully.”

This is ludicrous.
This is ludicrous.
When the Kenyan king was on the throne, it was the other way around. The Kenyan administration was suing the states. Sessions needs to wake up and get with the program.
9th circuit, right?
Leftists are good with federal coercion, just not when it is done to make them obey the law of the land.

A Real Man of integrity in charge of the Department of Justice would respond with Grand Jury Indictments and Handcuffs for these quisling elected officials for the Multiple FELONIES they Are Admittedly Committing.
Sodomites nonpareil. Genesis 2:24: Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh. KJV. Do not allow the left to hijack the language and the morality; their only goal is hedonism.
Trump continues to MAGA - liberals have now discovered the 10th Ammendment (although it doesn’t apply here).
What about ALL THOSE YEARS where the Feds threatened to withhold money from states that didn’t enforce 55MPH (and they actually put out Fed spies on overpasses, too). What about twisting the arms or state legistaltures to set the drinking age to 21 or lose EVEN MORE federal money? Was that before the 10th Amendment was ratified or something?
Well, we don't have Hillary and that's a biggie. I guess I should brace myself for Gorsuch possibly hitting the skids.
No doubt he is a nice guy, but Sessions doesn’t see to be up to his job in these challenging times. This is war.
I think Sessions is too old and not able to pull his weight. Disappointing.
0-3 as Trump failed to follow through on his Day One promises. Obama’s amnesty is still not rescinded.
Oh what a load of bull. Sorry but we DO have a right to enforce our immigration laws. You cannot try to establish a rogue city and ignore the laws of this country all the while suing us for actually enforcing consequences to you BREAKING THE LAW?
It’s time for a show of force.
Once again the communists block puts President Trump in a hole. Now what? Unless this crap is stopped cold, America will never recover.

Seattle will no doubt win too.
