“We’re filing suit to stop the administration from moving forward with this patently illegal attempt to steal taxpayer money for a border wall that Congress, security experts, and Americans have said is unnecessary,' ACLU's deputy legal director said.

Isn’t it just a bit insane to be against border security when we have 12-20 million illegal aliens in our country already with thousands more entering each year? When then, is a national emergency a national emergency?

None of them asked the people of these states if they want wall.

ACLU Joins 16 States Suing Trump Over Wall

What about the ones that want the wall?

The border wall already exists in 700 of the 2000 miles of the southern border, but a wall is needed in some of the gaps where there are no natural barriers. It's not Rocket Science !!!

The case can easily be made that these people are doing the job of our congress. Congressional repubs simply refuse to push back on the incredible damage trump is doing to our country. senatemajldr needs to prove his title as leader...

Thanks Mr. President! 🇺🇸

Trump want to use the American taxpayers money for his own personal piggy bank. Get this deplorable monster out of the White House.

More lies from the democratically funded and ran aclu. Americans want the wall we want to be safe just like every damn politician who hides in their compounds behind walls. Yet they say walls don’t work? Then why do they have them?!?

Here comes twenty-twenty Investigations galore If it's Trump, must be illegal If it's illegals, must be ignored … … … … … … … …

It is not theft for a president to use money that is already deligated for discretionary projects to an emergency.

Tell that to my Mom who was burglarized $3Ok in jewelry including her wedding ring in Harlingen, TX in RGV by an illegal alien. Alien was deported but wonder if she snuck back via Hidalgo Cty.

Blahahahahahah can't wait for my SCOTUS to take care of THIS! Trump will prevail.

nbc fake news I believe the ACLU’s job is to defend citizens who have be done in their lives. I do not see that that buildinding a defense system for for the protection of lives from those foiegn and domestic has dam thing with your office.

Either we have 3 separate branches of government or we have a dictator ruling by fiat. We can't have both. Congress said no, it's no. He's clearly the greatest threat this nation has faced since the founding of this nation. Hitler & Stalin didn't have the nuclear codes.

Bad idea, waste of time and taxpayer's money. That's like suing door manufacturers, fence, lock makers & barrier makers coz' they'd like to protect you. It's hypocritical to not want to build that wall/barrier when everybody has it in their own homes. Peace. realDonaldTrump

BuildTheWall TRUMP2020

What constitutes a national emergency? Wouldn't there have to be proof that there is a national emergency? Does he really understand the meaning of those words?

Id love to sue every past government from my lifetime for waste too, give me a fucking break. More important matters than 5 billion dollars going on

Trump might as well straighten out his arm at a 45 degree angle with all fingers forward and yell Heil Trump !!!

Of course they would.

So Theresa May is doing a terrible job of Brexit, and ruining the U.K. Now the POTUS has declared a FakeTrumpEmergency and is ruining the USA. Meanwhile, Putin is watching from Russia like...

It's not taxpayers money and its constitutional right for him to do that nothing was said when odummy did it, matter fact trump.going off on odummies 2011 emergency

Thanks ACLU !

No Standing!

The ACLU Has Sued The Trump Administration For Keeping Migrants Seeking Asylum In MexicoThe first asylum-seeking Central American families — five families made up of four women, one couple, and 10 children — were sent back to Mexico from the US on Wednesday. Lmao good luck. Suing for a place they have no claim to. Maybe the United States can sue illegal immigrants for entering the country illegally! Bahaha StepAhead SueYouForSuing Letting them stay in the US while their cases were pending was a courtesy, not a requirement of seeking asylum. There are cities in the US that are as dangerous as anywhere in Mexico. They have a right to APPLY for asylum sure but they do not have the right to remain in the US.
