DOJ warns White House that national emergency will likely be blocked: report
By Michael Burke - 02/14/19 06:53 PM EST

The Department of Justice (DOJ) has warned the White House that the courts are likely to block a national emergency declaration to build a wall along the southern border, according to ABC News.

The White House, however, remains confident that it can win on appeal and ultimately have such a declaration approved by the courts, ABC News reported.

The White House and DOJ did not immediately return requests for comment from The Hill.

Keep in mind that every President from Carter till now has declared a national emergency and I know of none that have been blocked by the courts.  I find that extremely alarming!

Though I am not surprised, Collins opened her mouth in objection.  IF those GOP in the damn Senate would back this President we wouldn't have this crap going on!!!

This will go all the way to SCOTUS and you can bet that Roberts will rule against this President.  Now we will see exactly where Gorsuch and Kavanaugh stand.
