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.

NICE a judge with some common sense!
I remember a bunch of conservatives saying that a judge would strike Trump down on this after the government was reopened, and the wall wouldn’t get built.
To: Innovative
A judge who doesnt want to stand between congress and the President?
Who is this mythical creature?

Correct decision. This is a political squabble not a constitutional question.

I do agree that the judge seemed to imply that congress had a chance to vote against the presidential declaration of the emergency and failed to win a veto proof majority in both houses of Congress. Congress had the power to end the declaration of emergency and blew it.

Is this Sane Judge in DC or the state Washington?
