A federal judge in Washington on Monday denied a request by House Democrats to block President Donald Trump from transferring funds from appropriated accounts to construct his wall.
Judge Trevor McFadden said the House lacks standing to bring the challenge and also he does not believe the court should step into the fight between the President and Congress.
"The Court declines to take sides in this fight between the House and the President," McFadden wrote.

So does this mean that Congress can still stop the wall, or did the judge say they could not?
To: Innovative
this is a mistake. We should not recognize judicial rulings in a national emergency situations. I have said that when the decision goes the other way and i say it again when it goes our way.
The congress is the check and balance in emergency declarations and the ED Act gives no role to the judiciary.
You cannot give 200 or so judges the power to stop the response to an emergency.
it is dangerous and rife for abuse of power by a non-elected official.

Obviously a serious mixup on the part of the judge shopping committee.

How is this a mistake? The judge ruled there is no standing, as Congress has other methods of their own to 'remedy' the situation. Also, he said this isn't an issue the courts should be involved in! What part of his ruling do you disagree with?
and also he does not believe the court should step into the fight between the President and Congress.
To: Svartalfiar
it is good ruling as I said. The problem is that it got onto the judiciary in the first place. Trump has deferred to judges too many times on immigration issues. Immigration has become national defense issue.

I was thinking the same thing. This is not Trump’s wall. It’s a wall for all Americans, to protect us from those seeking to illegally enter our country.

With a circuit court of appeals, a fully impaneled circuit court of appeals, and SCOTUS. Will there be an interim injunction, pending these appeals?
