>A federal judge on Friday temporarily blocked President Trump from constructing key parts of his border wall with money secured under his declaration of a national emergency.
>District Judge Haywood Gilliam's order prevents the administration from working on two Pentagon-funded wall projects – one in New Mexico and another in Yuma, Arizona.
>Trump administration officials "are enjoined from taking any action to construct a border barrier in the areas defendants have identified as Yuma Sector Project 1 and El Paso Sector Project 1 using funds reprogrammed by DoD," Judge Gilliam ordered, referring to the Department of Defense.
>The California judge's order may prove to be a setback for President Trump, who has described the building of a border wall as one of his top priorities.
>In March, the Republican-controlled Senate voted to terminate Trump's declaration of a national emergency on the border with Mexico — a move he had implemented in order to secure funds for the controversial border wall. A day later, the president vetoed the resolution, calling the congressional move "dangerous" and "reckless."
>"Congress' 'absolute' control over federal expenditures, even when that control may frustrate the desire of the Executive Branch regarding initiatives it views as important, is not a bug in our constitutional system. It is a feature of the system, and an essential one," Judge Gilliam wrote in his 56-page opinion.
The judge wants open borders so he can pay his lawn caretakers on the cheap.

If I was Trump I'd say "Thanks for your opinion on the matter." Then just go ahead and build it.

Magapedes in another thread told me that is an "impeachment trap." Trump is playing 4d chess by ceding all his executive power to the judiciary.

California district judge does not have jurisdiction over New Mexico and Arizona.
Christian Gutierrez
It's worst. Not even a circuit appeals judge, but the 2nd lowest ranking federal judge, district judge.
The lowest ranking judge is called Magistrate Judge.
Luke Walker
This is actually a good case to bring to the Supreme Court so they could permanently ban nationwide injunctions.
Chase Gonzalez
According to the US Justice Department, a federal Judge has jurisdiction over the US federal government in certain instances, regardless where the federal government is. "Federal courts have nationwide jurisdiction over certain types of cases, but the district court also has concurrent jurisdiction over many of those cases"
Pulled it from DOJ's own website doing a quick Google search.

Judges don't have control over military spending.
Separation of powers.
Also, that is a DOJ opinion not Supreme Court precedent.
DOJ opinion is not Supreme Court precedent.
Thomas and Gorsuch have already made negative statements about this.

he donated money to Obama and Obama made him a judge as pay back

It is, mostly because the GOP in the senate cannot be trusted to get behind Trump
Zachary Gomez
Gorsuch will be on your side, until then, the District courts have bizarrely nationwide jurisdiction for a border wall since it's considered to eventually cross state lines at one point.
JUSTICE GORSUCH: We have this troubling rise of this nationwide injunction, cosmic injunction - not limited to relief for the parties at issue or even a class action. And, near as I can tell, that's — that's a really new development where a district court asserts the right to strike down a — a federal statute with regard to anybody anywhere in the world.

TLDR: Trump admin cucks again to the judicial branch that has no legitimate authority on such matters.
I know, but they have to make it official with precedent. Hopefully this gets appealed all the way to the Supreme Court and they finally end this practice.
Austin Watson
If you read his legal opinion, he blocked Trump's wall because an activist environmentalist group named Sierra Club said the Border Wall would interfere with night time fishing alongside the border due to Border Patrol using Floodlights.
Obama Judge from California placed an illegal injunction on Trump building a wall in New Mexico because the Seirra Club argued to the judge that building a wall will interfere with their night time fishing along the border.
>Turning to Plaintiffs’ aesthetic and recreational interests, Plaintiffs provide declarations from several members, detailing how Defendants’ proposed use of funds reprogrammed under Section 8005 and then used under Section 284 for border barrier construction will harm their ability to recreate in and otherwise enjoy public land along the border. See Dkt. No. 30 (“Del Val Decl.”) ¶¶ 7–9 (alleging harm from border barrier construction and the accompanying lighting in the Yuma Sector Project 1 to declarant’s “ability to fish” and general enjoyment of natural environment);
Reminder that New Mexico is not even in the 9th Circuit but the 10th Circuit yet this California District Judge is ruling outside his district and applying his ruling to New Mexico, an entirely different state.
He also placed an illegal injunction over Trump due to Sierra Club who don't even have legal standing because they claim Trump's border wall will interfere with their fishing hobby near the border.
So yeah, this illegal injunction by this Obama judge happened because the judge granted illegal standing to some random Seirra Club with their argument that the border wall will interfere with fishing near the border and get this, the area affected isn't even in California or the same district the judge presides over but a completely different state and circuit.
>Judges don't have control over military spending. Unless Trump tells them to piss up a rope they do. That's the point of these frivolous injunctions, if the Supreme Court throws it out they'll just file more, if it's upheld it it's all good.
Ryder Ross
See Obama District Judge blocked Trump's wall due to the Border Wall possibly harming FISHING, BIRD WATCHING, AND HIKING activities alongside the border.
He dared to unconstitutionally block a national emergency over fucking fishing and hiking.
Gavin Powell
There's no way this will hold up, and it appears it was not intended to. The only purpose is to delay construction long enough to run out the clock on Trump's term so the next president can cancel the project.
>Plaintiffs have shown that Defendants’proposed construction will lead to a substantial change in the environment, the nature of which will harm their members’aesthetic and recreational interests.
Obama judge granted illegal standing to Seirra Club and actually issued a nationwide injunction because Trump's wall would harm their recreational interests.
Caleb Murphy
It will get appealed, which will kick it to the 9th District Court of Appeals, then possibly an en banc, and then the SCOTUS. The left will draw-out this case for as long as they can. Do you, or does anyone, have a guess how long this could take?
Ryder Thompson
That is why the leftist news media refuses to publish more details of this Obama Judge's ruling.
They only bother to quote this from his legal opinion:
>"Congress' 'absolute' control over federal expenditures, even when that control may frustrate the desire of the Executive Branch regarding initiatives it views as important, is not a bug in our constitutional system. It is a feature of the system, and an essential one," Judge Gilliam wrote in his 56-page opinion.
The Leftist News Media doesn't dare to quote the Obama Judge granting an injunction against Trump due to Sierra Club alleging Trump's wall will hurt their recreational hobbies like fishing and hiking and bird watching.
Imagine thinking you have the power to stop a national emergency over some fucking fish.
Obama Judges should all be impeached and imprisoned.
Ian Garcia
>Meanwhile construction continues with money still in hand This is literally pointless banter, by the time the supreme court rules on this Trump might run out of the money he already got but the wall still gets built daily. They aren't gonna stop the entire project just because it stalled in one measly section.
The Supreme Court has granted some of Trump's emergency appeals that skip the appeals court entirely.
The 2020 Census Lawsuits were successfully appealed by Trump and the Supreme Court granted cert even though some of those lawsuits didn't get a chance to be appealed to circuit courts.
Trump did mention he wanted to emergency appeal this ruling too.
Problem is Trump made no specifics. Does he want emergency appeal to the 9th Circuit or ask the Supreme Court to decide this nationwide injunction shit once and for all.
Remember Circuit Court of Appeals is usually 3 judge panels.
Trump successfully added 3 Trump judges to the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals although there is no guarantee Trump judges will get to hear this case since judge panels are done by randomized drawing.

John James
See Obama judge blocked Trump's wall with a badly written legal opinion over fishing, hiking, and bird watching and because the Border Wall would harm aesthetics and recreational activities.
Basically, this judge thinks he can block a national emergency due to his subjective opinion that the wall will be an eyesore and harm someone's fishing hobby along the border.
Nathan Perez
Great news, hopefully this will be decided quickly then. Thanks, user.
Blake Morris
>This is how the average American will look like in 2030
Samuel Russell
I think you're slightly misunderstanding the argument, the injunction is being granted because the judge believes that not granting it will cause irreparable harm even if the plaintiff's case succeeds which he believes is greater than the harm caused by the injunction. Without getting technical, if the judge thinks the plaintiff's case has any merit at all he can grant an injunction for that reason. The case hasn't actually been adjudicated yet.
Mason Sullivan
This can't be. Jow Forums just told me 2 days ago that Trump's wall was PASSED and the military could do ANYTHING and Breitbart and other sites confirmed this with front-page headlines stating the same thing....
We can't keep winning! My property values depend on it an so I will believe! MAGA
Trump would have had 2 more 9th Circuit Judges by now but MARCO RUBIO AND TIM SCOTT blocked 3 Trump Judge Picks last year at the very last second.
But look at this chart. Yeah, the 9th Circuit is still Leftist as hell but Trump already has 6 Trump Judges on the 9th Circuit.
Trump would already had 8 Trump Judges but Rubio and Tim Scott blocked these judge picks even though THEY FUCKING LIVE IN FLORIDA AND SOUTH CAROLINA not CALIFORNIA.
disbarment when? treason when? rope when? answer: never... rofl stomp these activist judges and i guarantee trump approvals would spike over 20% overnight.
Ryder Jones
Illegal Standing is Illegal.
Seirra Club should have went before a New Mexico Judge or an Arizona Judge not a California Judge.

Let this be a lesson to you right wing faggot losers. We in California CONTROL the ENTIRE COUNTRY. You will BEND the knee, you stupid fucking white slaves.

>Unless Trump tells them to piss up a rope wasn't that the whole point of declaring a national emergency? what was the point of it if it didn't actually give him power to do anything?

Angel Jackson
If all the Clinton judges on the 9th Circuit start retiring, Trump could turn the 9th Circuit conservative with only 7 Obama Judges being the only leftists left.
17 Trump Judges, 5 Bush Judges, and 7 Obama Judges.
This is what the 9th Circuit will look like once the Clinton judges start retiring and Trump replaces them.
Still too many Obama judges but well, you take what you can get.
