Texas Comes Through
Judge David Briones of the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Texas, ruled that Trump’s declaration of an emergency on the southern border is unlawful
Briones, who was appointed to the court by President Bill Clinton, ruled that Trump overstepped his authority to divert more funds to border security than what was appropriated by Congress.
He also ruled that El Paso has standing to sue the president and members of his Cabinet because the county “suffered reputational and economic injuries” as a result of the administration’s rhetoric on the situation at the border and the construction plans that the proclamation entailed.
This is good stuff.
On a less important Texas court decision today, Infowars loses again. Alex Jones is on his third set of lawyers in the Texas cases and he still hasn’t won even one single motion on any of the cases. This decision came down today from the Third Court of Appeals. I think Lil’ Bubba is enjoying pitching a no-hitter against that slimy sumbitch.
Bravo, Judge Briones and Lil’ Bubba!!
1Good call Judge Briones.
In honor of Trump’s Impenetrable Border Wall, please enjoy this video (scroll down the article a bit) of an 8 year old girl climbing over an exact replica border wall. In 40 seconds.

Excellent work Lil’ Bubba, too.
2Yes, many cheers for Lil’ Bubba. It’s almost as if we know him personally and just can’t help ourselves.
3I hope AJ loses everything he’s got by the time it’s over.

– US court backs request for Trump’s financial records
In a blow to President Donald Trump’s efforts to block oversight of his business dealings, a U.S. court on Friday backed a House of Representatives request for the Republican’s financial records including tax documents.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The chairman of one of the Democratic-led U.S. House of Representatives committees leading the impeachment probe of President Donald Trump said on Friday the committee would continue and “accelerate” its efforts.

5Without emergency powers, the Administration cannot bypass environmental laws, like NEPA.
Nevertheless, they are. I hope El Paso is able to get an injunction stopping permanent damage like shown here: https://earther.gizmodo.com/trumps-border-wall-could-destroy-an-icon-of-the-america-1838703997
6Its a sign! Just like the star in the sky that led the Magi! I say triple yippee-yahoo for this! My day is made!
7Have you seen those bumper stickers that say “My daughter made the honor roll”? You need one that says “My son is kicking the stuffing out of Alex Jones.”
8Meanwhile Pence’s Indiana judges are having shhoot outs in front of White castle.

“INDIANAPOLIS – Three Indiana judges face disciplinary charges from the Indiana Commission on Judicial Qualifications in connection with a fight outside an Indianapolis White Castle restaurant in May that led to two of the judges getting shot.”
Now this is an example of the judges pence would appoint if given the chance.
9Lil Bubba is awesome, you must be so proud of him!
10I have a quibble with your comment “On a less important Texas court decision today…”
11The decision may not solve the issue in Syria or anything of that sort, but it’s truly important. AJ has done a great deal of harm, and Little Bubba and his team are making part of America better! We need to show people of that sort they can be held accountable for their actions.
