This is what it looks like.
“”Another little win. They’re adding up.””
And they’re making me nervous. I can’t help but feel that there are more shoes to drop and we are NOT going to like it! I thought the Bimbo from Huntington Beach with the lawsuit against Trump was gone for good but it appears Gloria has her fangs in her and is going to drag her all the way to court. I want to see Gloria learn the hard way - that will be a day to celebrate.

This is a step in the right direction, but I hope Judicial Watch is prepared to fight hard to keep it moving.
Personally, I think it will end up in the Supreme Court, since it hinges on the question of whether a state or city or region has the right to reject federal law just because they don’t like it. There are legal ways of challenging it, but SF and the other “sanctuary cities” never followed any legal process and simply ordered their employees not to obey.
Does anyone know anyone on the Judicial Watch team?
In addition to their current filing on a sanctuary city matter, I think there is a good approach that challenges all sanctuary city laws on Constitutional grounds, as denial of “equal protection of the law”.
If a citizen is wanted for apprehension on a federal charge, a “sanctuary city” does not proscribe their authorities from cooperation and assisting the federal authorities in that apprehension. But “sanctuary city” laws establish illegally resident non-citizens as a special class deserving of “protection” in the form of local official’s non-cooperation with federal authorities. In a “sanctuary city” the illegal non-citizen is privileged above any citizen who may be sought by federal authorities.
It’s clearly denial of equal protection of the law.
