Second Federal Judge blocks Trump Birthright Citizenship Restriction efforts..Update….

This judge IS pissed that political moves ARE being made with NO regard to the Establlished Law or Legal precedents …

Which IS EXACTLY what the Project 2025 minions are doing under Trump/Musk’s umbrella ….

 

A second federal judge blocked President Trump’s executive order that would restrict birthright citizenship, harshly condemning the administration for attempting to do so at a Thursday hearing.

The rule of law is, according to him, something to navigate around or simply ignore, whether that be for political or personal gain,” U.S. District Judge John Coughenour said as he announced his ruling.

“Nevertheless, in this courtroom and under my watch, the rule of law is a bright beacon which I intend to follow,” continued Coughenour, an appointee of former President Reagan.

Coughenour agreed to grant a nationwide preliminary injunction blocking Trump’s order as requested by four Democratic state attorneys general and a group of private plaintiffs.

He issued his order after hearing less than 20 minutes of arguments, pointing to his previous work in what was formerly the Soviet Union.

“I said this two weeks ago, and I’ll say it again today: There are moments in the world’s history when people look back and ask, ‘Where were the lawyers, where were the judges?’ In these moments, the rule of law becomes especially vulnerable. I refuse to let that beacon go dark today,” the judge said….

The Department of Justice (DOJ) has appealed a federal judge’s order indefinitely blocking President Trump’s executive order that would restrict birthright citizenship.

The appeal will be heard by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit. It’s the first Justice Department appeal of a lawsuit challenging major Trump administration actions….
