Where in the Constitution does it say that 1800+ unelected judges have more authority than the President? And why does this crap never happen to a Democrat?

U.S. District Judge Michael J. McShane also said the federal government can’t impose immigration-related conditions on the grant awards.

Every government grant or contract has stipulations. Want to do business with the government and you better break out boxes of pens to fill in all the boxes ensuring that all of the I's are dotted and the T's are crossed.

Looks like it, doesn’t it.

It seems it’s up to the whims of a federal judge now.

The ironic difference between Arizona and Oregon is that in fact the Arizona law enforcement was seeking to ENFORCE Federal law, not to undermine it!

>Yeah sanctuary cities are ILLEGAL.

As is robbing the taxpayers for ‘grants’ to the State(s).

Unfort., nobody is talking about correcting that anytime in the near future.

Course, I don’t see Pres. Trump doing his JOB in this instance by sending in the DOJ & Fed. marshalls to arrest & prosecute all the govt employees for breaking the Law

So now the states can have their own immigration laws. Until we get a Democrat president. Then the shoe’ll be on the other foot like it was with Obama and the State of Arizona’s governor. Remember that one with the face-off on the tarmac? In that one federal law trumped state law. No judge interfered. These b$%tards get to butter their bread on both sides.

Well, it’ll be a FEW more *weeks* before Congress gets off its @$$, I mean vacation. THEN, the (R)N(C) can begin impeachment proceeding to get ‘im yanked for judicial over-reach.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAha. Sorry, I tried to hold it in as best I could.

Shifty eyed moonbat.

Just start arresting these governors, mayors, and city council members who pass these illegal sanctuary proclamations.

I suppose I have been mistaken in my assumption that federal grants are distributed soley at the discretion of the federal government?

The federal government includes the Congress and this judge says the law Congress wrote doesn't allow the Executive to withhold the money.

I hadn’t realized the Obama judges were so big on states’ rights.

Yeah looks like he was confirmed by the Senate:

Nominated by Barack Obama on January 4, 2013, to a seat vacated by Michael Robert Hogan. Confirmed by the Senate on May 20, 2013,

Not that it would have made any difference if he hadn't been. The next nominee would have been just as bad. Remember the Republican-controlled Senate never really denied the Kenyanesian Usurper anything he asked for. Afeered they'd be labeled as raciss.

Just bury the grant money in a pile of red tape and slow the money transfer for years.

Refraining from giving away money is not robbery.

It is taking a pass on giving out funds to a city that has gone rogue.

Where do you think a lot of that money will go?

It will go to pay for services to illegals.

Now it might not go there directly, but other funds will go there, and those funds will be replaced by the grant money.

It’s the same game California plays all the time. They demand higher taxes to pay for roads, then transfer the original highway funds to other pet projects.

I am amazed that the p.o.s. would actually release a document that mentions primacy of the individual under the highest law of the land, our Constitution.

I now wonder how deep his commitment is to that fact?

“Another day, another 9th Circuit Court of Appeals ruling headed for the dustbin of history.”

Another gift from the OBUMSTER,a GAY guy whose close friends (4 of them) died of AIDS,and yet has ‘adopted’a nephew to raise alng with his present ‘partner’...all should be lost in dustbin of history.
