Federal judge blocks Trump's order to pull funding from "sanctuary" cities
As Mayor Mitch Landrieu and other U.S. mayors met with Attorney General Jeff Sessions over "sanctuary" cities, a federal judge in California halted an order from President Donald Trump that threatens to withhold federal funds from those cities. U.S. District Judge William Orrick granted a preliminary injunction in two lawsuits against Trump's order to halt funding to cities with so-called "sanctuary" policies that prevent local law enforcement from complying with federal immigration authorities over immigration issues. New Orleans was listed among nine jurisdictions targeted by the Trump administration, despite Landrieu and other officials repeatedly assuring the city's compliance with the feds.? |

Re: Federal judge blocks Trump's order to pull funding from "sanctuary" cities
That gives me a real warm and fuzzy feeling when "judges" are deciding to protect illegal activity.
I was previously under the impression that judges were supposed to uphold the law, not destroy it. |
