Yet another "First 100 Days" success story... Trump’s Sanctuary Cities Order Blocked by Federal Judge by Kartikay Mehrotra April 25, 2017, 1:07 PM PDT San Francisco, Santa Clara County win court injunctions President argued ‘immeasurable harm to the American people’ A San Francisco judge barred enforcement of President Donald Trump’s executive order withholding funds from so-called sanctuary cities that fail to comply with federal immigration demands by shielding undocumented immigrants. San Francisco and its Silicon Valley neighbor, Santa Clara County, on Tuesday both won preliminary injunctions blocking the Jan. 25 edict by Trump who declared sanctuary jurisdictions cause “immeasurable harm to the American people and to the very fabric of our republic." The city and county argued the president’s order violated the Constitution and threatened to deprive them of funding for local programs. The federal government may ask the U.S. Court of Appeals in San Francisco to overturn the ruling. bloomberg.com

I want a little trade war. Not a big trade war - just a little one. The closer things are made to the place they are used the better for the environment. Does it really make sense to make ding dang toys in China and ship them across the world so we can save a nickle on pick up sticks? Same with building materials - make your houses out of what you have at hand - make houses out of bricks where that makes sense and make them out of wood where that makes sense. Yah! That is a slam on worldly global trade. I see the gazillions of storage units filled to the bursting so that people have enough room in their homes so they can go out and buy more shit they don't need. Oh boohoo that stuff will cost a little more! We should ALL want that if we really care about the environment.
