Go for it, guys! Keep the discussion loudly on a subject that polls really well for President Trump.
[NYPOST] New York City, along with Seattle, Wash., and Portland, Ore., filed a lawsuit against President Trump Thursday for his administration’s decision to place the three cities on a list of "anarchist jurisdictions" eligible to lose federal funds.The 51-page complaint for declaratory and injunctive relief was filed in Seattle at the US District Court for the Western District of Washington.It calls the labeling of "anarchist jurisdictions" an "oxymoronic designation without precedent in American jurisprudence."
The "actions" of the defendants, which in addition to Trump include Attorney General Bill Barr, Office of Management and Budget Director Russell Vought and Acting Homeland Security Secretary Chad Wolf, "violate bedrock principles of American democracy: separation of powers, federalism, and due process," the suit charges.
The Post first reported in September that New York City, Portland and Seattle were labeled "anarchist jurisdictions" by the Justice Department and targeted to lose federal money for failing to control protesters during recent demonstrations against racism and for defunding police.
The cities argue that the executive branch lacks the authority to add conditions to congressionally appropriated funds without congressional authorization and they challenge the proposed action on five different grounds, including the violation of separation of powers and the 10th Amendment.
Mayor Comrade Bill de Blasio
...cryptocommie mayor of New York and for some reason a Dem candidate for president in 2020. Corrupt and incompetent, his qualifications for office seem to consist of being married to a black woman, with whom he honeymooned in Cuba. He has a preppy-looking son named Dante, whose Divine Comedy involved getting his back hair up when a police car drove past him slowly. New Yorkers voted for him, so they deserve him...announced that the suit would be filed during a City Hall press briefing Thursday morning.
"What we’ve seen from President Trump threatening funding for New York City and other cities ... it’s morally wrong. It’s legally unacceptable," de Blasio railed.
