No lawyer, in their right mind, would represent the broke ass state of California unless they just want to work many hundreds of hours for free.

The state must demonstrate it has suffered a concrete injury, or that an injury is imminent. That injury must be traceable to the defendant. Finally, a plaintiff must demonstrate that if it wins in court, a court can redress that injury. Have fun paying for all of that!

These states are to be shamed and despised: In addition to California, the other states that joined the lawsuit are Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Hawaii, Illinois, Maine, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Oregon and Virginia.

SO WHO IS IN CHARGE OF USA--PRES,STSATES,COURTS--SOUNDS LIKE A REAL CLUSTER--I HOPE NO HAS TO PUSH THE BUTTON--TOO MANY COOKS IN KITCHEN

This explains the lawsuit!

Unamerican 😡

Um. He said Mexico would pay for the wall. Did all you republicans for get that? Stealing allocated fund from the military while he Golfs in Florida? Just saying

Charge him with Graud. Residing the American people to build a personal project

Maybe more time needs to be spent on trying to figure out why Congress cannot do their job. They’ve kicked this can down the road for decades, and I blame them for the results. I thank President Trump for his efforts

When the Governor of Puerto Rico ricardorossello Will Join These States to Accuses the USA President of Stealing the Assistance Funds Assigned to Puerto Rico by Hurricane Irma and Maria. ES HORA DE ACTUAR SEÑOR GOBERNADOR NO SE ACOBARDE.

BLUE STATES. Who cares?

The remaining 34 states need to sue the 16 and defend their President!

Funny. We only have 4 states on the Mexican border. Typical democratic pile on. LOL 😂 bless their hearts 🥰 why would the other 12 give a shit other than obstructing realDonaldTrump and the people’s agenda? MAGA

POTUS . We can’t allow Trump to succeed w/ his mfred nat’l emerg. There is no excuse for you in moving away from the Rule of Law. 70% of the people DON’T want you as our president. The ppl will rise against you. You will not succeed in destroying our democracy. REMEMBER MUNICH.

We are 50 states

if these people win then government will have less power, and if they loose we get the wall. I'm not sure which one I like better BuildTheWall LessGovernment

Maybe try stomping your feet and crying 😢

Theres not even 16 states bordering our south, this smells like cnn fake news.

Like we didn’t see that coming....if they only knew every time they Bush harder to fight against him, the closer they are putting him right back in office.

Awkward? A fundamentally meaningful symbolism imho -

Meh

I seriously don’t understand how our constitutional system works where the president has to be sued for not following the constitution.

Just wasting money. If the Dems focused on getting themselves an electable candidate & a platform people supported, they’d do better than they are now as obstructionist with nothing but hatred to offer.

Supreme Court to decide.

The fact that Becerra has filed a personal lawsuit against POTUS Trump is enough to completely discredit him and show his colors and ignorance. A sitting POTUS CANNOT be sued, much less for declaring a National Emergency. Just more grandstanding...a waste of time and money.

Did you know Socialism is DEAD, TRUMP SAID SO!!! And I BELIEVE HIM!!

Trump’s administration has arrested an insane amount of people involved in human trafficking, sex rings, and pedophilia. If you think the wall is about drugs then or immigrants then you may want to open your eyes...

Democrats wasting a lot more money, should have just gave President Trump the money!

Hmmmm I don’t see Texas or Arizona

All part of the Democrat's neverending War on Public Safety

How many of Obama's 'national emergencies' are still in effect? The media is shameful.

Not HIS border wall.. OUR border wall. AngelMoms

Meh

Unlikely to deter Trump. He has been sued over 3,500 times throughout his career. It appears to be part of how he conducts business & now government. Overreach or don’t pay, great if he’s not sued, walk back conduct or settle for pennies on the dollar if he is sued. That’s Trump.

These states are led by Democratic governors. Where are the states led by Republicans? Why aren’t they filing lawsuits against trump to prevent him from violating the constitutional powers of the Congress? I thought that’s what conservatism was all about?

Another bloody nose for Chump.

Glad Colorado has balls to file lawsuit since the GOP lost theirs.FAKENationalEmergency

On President’s Day, no less. We’re all so embarrassed by realDonaldTrump.

Whoops.

We all know where this is going. Mid-1800s, anyone?

realDonaldTrump

take money from fund set aside for sexual predators in government. You know the secret fund. They can pay their own settlements

Let me guess! Right wing news media opines that the 1/3 governors also met in the basement of Comet Ping Pong and touched base about their pedophile ring before moving on to infrastructure issues and electric grid security. Once and for all. 'Media' means much more than 'news.'

Their money.

didn't see that coming...

For a fascist like TheDirtyDon, there is no such thing as a separation of powers; it’s all his.

You should have kept that same energy when Obama flouted Congress and enacted the illegal DACA program

👊👊👊👊👊👊👊 Boom!

how many of them filed suit against Obama for the emergencies he declared and are still in force?

To which Donald trump and his esteemed legal advisors replied “but I WANT MY WALL WAAAAA GIMME”
