    Did you read it? Because you're sitting there saying biased dosn't make it so. There is cool trick where you can copy and paste parts of a aricle like a name, dates, specific places etc. and get alot of ino info. https://www.nytimes.com/2019/04/25/us/judge-shelley-joseph-indicted.html Oh look at that from the NY times.

    What I don't like is the ranting around here about a single judge and then generalizing about liberals/Democrats/leftwingers etc. Just as sickening are people on the other side generalizing about conservatives. We're poisoning the country with this stuff.

    If a judge violates the law, we should prosecute because lawbreaking judges bring our justice system into disrepute.

    You might take a look:

    I'm not saying the Feds should, just that they could.

    They probably can't withhold the money legally, but they can make life miserable.

    Some forms of coercion are legal, others not. What else is news?

    Obstructing and not assisting are different matters. Obstructing is against the law.

    It's not reality. Beto said it once and killed his political asperations.

    True or not, it's a one-off. In a nation of 320m people.

    AG Barr only prosecutes those who he feels safe to prosecute.

    Excuse you?

    The confederacy didn’t nullify federal law. The union did so when the northern states violated the constitution. As ruled in two separate instances by the SCOTUS.

    The ruling by the 2nd Court of Appeal ensures that the SCOTUS will hear this case dealing with sanctuary cities. Which will rule in favor of the Trump Administration.

    As far as the Federal Government withholding fed funds for failure to comply with Federal laws, that has already been done.

    The Constitution was amended to end slavery, so it is a moot point.

    Which was also unconstitutional. So not really moot.

    That doesn't surprise me one bit. The courts have always or mostly always ruled in favor of federal over state. Federal takes precedence over state laws.

    In the past it has been on topics such as abortion, civil rights, voting rights etc. Now its on immigration. A change of who are for states rights from right to the left side of the political spectrum.

    That’s correct. In order to amend the constitution the northern states and federal government denied the southern states suffrage in the senate. They refused to allow them any representation until they signed the 13th, 14th and 15th amendments.

    An action which is expressly forbidden by the constitution in order to pass a constitutional amendment.
