Court sides with President Trump in 'sanctuary cities' grant fight

Ruling is from the 2nd Circuit so it doesn't affect California but the handwriting is on the wall for all of the states.

NEW YORK - The Trump administration can withhold millions of dollars in law enforcement grants to force states to cooperate with U.S. immigration enforcement, a federal appeals court in New York ruled Wednesday in a decision that conflicted with three other federal appeals courts.

The decision by the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Manhattan overturned a lower court's decision ordering the administration to release funding to New York City and seven states — New York, Connecticut, New Jersey, Washington, Massachusetts, Virginia and Rhode Island.

    Rats just filed the suit so they could keep the Fed money and thwart Trump. They knew that the law was tied to federal guidelines but wasted the courts time and tax payer money anyway. I can't wait for Trump to cut the grants to zero. It is not much in the big scheme of things but it is the right thing to do and that will piss of rats. Fun watching!

    How do you keep money that hasn't been sent?

    Possession 9/10th of the law or something like that. But the Throbber is no dazzler from a legal perspective so take that advice for what you paid for it.
