The United States Supreme Court ruled on Friday that President Donald Trump can use $2.5 billion in military funding to build the border wall along the U.S. southern border. USA Today reports that the Supreme Court's "order temporarily settles just one of several skirmishes between the Trump administration and House Democrats, 'blue' states led by California, and environmental groups over border wall funds." Trump responded to the news in a tweet, writing, "Wow! Big VICTORY on the Wall. The United States Supreme Court overturns lower court injunction, allows Southern Border Wall to proceed. Big WIN for Border Security and the Rule of Law!" "The 30-foot steel bollard fencing will replace barriers that the Trump administration says are dilapidated and ineffective," Bloomberg continued. "Some of those existing barriers are designed only to prevent vehicles from crossing and don't stop pedestrians." Axios added that the president "wants roughly $8 billion to build a wall on U.S.-Mexico border, $3.6 billion of which he plans to access with emergency powers." The five conservative Supreme Court Justices ruled in favor of the Trump administration while the four liberal justices would not have allowed construction to start. "The $2.5 billion had been shifted from various programs including personnel and recruiting, Minuteman III and air launch cruise missiles, E-3 aircraft upgrades and the Afghan security forces training fund," CNN reported. "The Pentagon said it was able to move that money due to uncovered cost savings as part of a process known as 'reprogramming.' The money was moved into a Defense Department counter-drug account that is authorized to spend money on the construction of border barriers." Poster Comment: OrangeMan bad. OrangeMan very very bad!

Sure took a long time to get to an obvious decision. It's just wrong for one remote loon out of 179 appeals-court judges to stop a national-policy decision.
I think it would be better to only ignore the cases where some activists run to a Hawaiian judge or other Ninth Circus judge to get a nationwide injunction against Some Thing Orange Hitler Wants To Do. Start by ignoring the lone nut district judge. You have to take appeals courts a little more seriously. I don't think lone judges should ever be allowed nationwide injunctions in a political dispute between the two parties. It should always be, at minimum, a 3-judge panel or larger. I didn't like it when we had a few lone judges that were talking about striking down 0bamacare. If you're going to do that, you should have a couple of other judges in your circuit who are will to agree and join your opinion. I just don't like the idea of lone judges ordering the entire country around. It seems unsound.

Until we get the courts back to a Constitutional basis, I think the Executive Branch should start stonewalling them, saying "go ahead, try to enforce your ruling".
