In a stunning blow to law and order, a federal judge in liberal San Francisco has blocked efforts by President Trump’s administration to withhold crucial federal funding from more than a dozen sanctuary jurisdictions that openly defy federal immigration law. These cities—including Seattle, Portland, and Santa Fe—have chosen to protect illegal immigrants by refusing to cooperate with ICE, undermining national security and thumbing their noses at the rule of law. Judge William Orrick, an Obama-era appointee, sided with progressive strongholds that claim federal immigration enforcement somehow damages community trust, even as criminal aliens remain shielded from justice. The ruling halts President Trump’s commonsense executive order aimed at holding rogue cities accountable, allowing them to keep their taxpayer dollars while refusing to uphold the very laws that keep Americans safe.
