Midknight Review -- new and revised: When the S.F. judge shot down Trump's sanctuary cities punitive action, what exactly happened? And is there no recourse?

When the S.F. judge shot down Trump's sanctuary cities punitive action, what exactly happened? And is there no recourse?

Look, the government is working off Obama's last "budget." That fiscal year ends with the last day of this coming September.

Understand that Trump's new budget, if it makes "compliance" as to ending "sanctuary" status a requirement for receiving federal funds, beginning October 1,2017, that will work. Right now, under contract law, the states have a contract for receiving federal funds with no penalties against sanctuary status. Why Trump is not waiting for the new budget proposal is beyond me. At any rate, eventually, he will end this lawlessness.

Update: Besides the strategy that is the new budget, October 1, there are grants, money given to entities and state governments, money given apart from any contractual ties. These grants can be taken away at any money and for any reason. In other words, pressure can be put on regional governments to comply and the smaller cities with their limited funds, will not be able to resist the law and order of this Administration.

Let's return the favor, shall we?

CLINTON: You cannot be civil with a political party that wants to destroy what you stand for, what you care about. That’s why I believe if we are fortunate enough to win back the House and/or the senate, that’s when civility can start again. But until then, the only thing that the Republicans seem to recognize and respect is strength. And you heard how the Republican members led by Mitch McConnell, the president really demeaned the confirmation process.

The Stated Nonsense from the Left now includes these Progressive goals:

July 2, 2008, Obama had this to say: "We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."

MICHELLE OBAMA: "Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices; we are going to have to change our conversation; we're going to have to change our traditions, our history; we're going to have to move into a different place as a nation."

“ . . . . . . they have become a generation of activists possessed with that most American of ideas – that people who love their country can change it.” -- Obama the Radical

On September 30, Van Jones told MSNBC "I think everybody should hold onto your seats. October is going to be the turning point when it comes to the progressive fight back."
