An Oakland-based Judge appointed By Obama Blocks Trump From Building Sections of United States-Mexico Border Wall

Epoch Times: A judge has ruled that the Trump administration must temporarily stop using some Defense Department funds to build additional border fencing.

U.S. District Judge Haywood Gilliam in Northern California said on Friday, May 24, that Trump cannot move the funds without congressional approval.

Gilliam’s 56-page ruling (pdf) blocks the use of $1 billion from the Department of Defense to fund two wall projects to replace some 51 miles of fencing in two areas on the United StatesMexico border.

The ruling does not stop the Trump administration from using funds from other sources to build the wall.

The lawsuit that resulted in Gilliam’s ruling was filed by the American Civil Liberties Union on behalf of the Sierra Club and Southern Border Communities Coalition. Gilliam is an Oakland-based appointee of President Barack Obama.  more here

  1. “…a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism.”
    We have a certain document that explains what to do when this happens.

  2. Before I even looked, I just knew that Haywood Gilliam was a black man. Sorry, a person of color. Maybe half black, like Obozo.

    Someone else can look for me to check if he’s a Harvard grad and if Jussie Smollett’s DNA is on his boxers.
