Clinton-appointed federal judge rules Trump lacks the authority to declare an emergency??
As our nation's attention is gripped by House Democrats finalizing their articles of impeachment, something happened two days ago that slipped under everyone's radar:
With over 25 million illegal aliens in the U.S., President Trump vowed to cut that number, by building a wall on our southern border. He tried to get congress to appropriate funds to do that. Congress refused, so after another half-million aliens illegally entered the U.S. via our undefended southern border last year, the president declared an emergency, and ordered funds for non-essential Pentagon construction projects to be diverted to build the wall congress refused to fund.
Predictably, Democrat/socialist activists sued. The city of El Paso volunteered to be the grievously-damaged plaintiff, suing the president. They argued that Trump lacked the authority to declare an emergency based on the massive wave of illegal immigrants across the border.
The Dem law firms encouraged El Paso to file suit because they knew the judge hearing the case would be a Clinton-appointee, David Briones. And sure enough, two days ago Briones ruled that the Pentagon funds could not be used for wall construction, and issued a permanent injunction against the use of the funds.
America has become ungovernable not because our Constitution or laws are wrong but because we no longer have enough men willing to comply with them.

Democrat Nancy Pelosi was ecstatic, crowing
"Once again, the courts have resoundingly ruled against the President's attempt to negate our system of separation of powers, which is the genius of our Constitution, by assaulting Congress's exclusive constitutional power of the purse. Despite what the President may think, Article II does not mean that he can do whatever he wants."
Nancy apparently has never actually read the Constitution. Specifically, Article 4, Section 4:
The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion;
And this ignorant, lying, pro-illegal bitch is the leader of the Democrat party??? WTF??!
