A U.S. judge on Tuesday blocked President Donald Trump's executive order which sought to withhold federal funds from so-called sanctuary cities for immigrants.

The ruling from U.S. District Judge William Orrick III in San Francisco said Trump's order targeted broad categories of federal funding for sanctuary governments, and that plaintiffs challenging the order were likely to succeed in proving it unconstitutional.

Yesssssssss! the judiciary is our last stand for now against Trump, until enough Americans hit the streets to demand the impeachment of Trump.

Ooh boy, salty tweet about California when
 
San Francisco may not be a Pacific island, but it's still on the Pacific coast. Let's just disqualify all states that touch the Pacific Ocean.

It will be something. Like that Stephen Miller guy saying nobody can challenge a President. Like we elect kings in this country. I'm like checks and balances bitch.
 
We're going to have to build a monument in DC to the state AGs and reasonable federal judges that are the only thing keeping our head above water these days.
