District Judge Trevor McFadden denies House Democrats lawsuit against Trump for Border Wall.
NO STANDING. Discusses challenging statutory vs constitutional violations, says “Congress has several political arrows in its quiver to counter perceived threats to its sphere of power.”
McFadden says “ Thus it has not alleged Administration’s actions have nullified its legislative power. And it is therefore the political tools the Constitution provides, rather than the federal courts, to which the House must turn to combat the Administration’s planned spending.”
U.S. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES, Plaintiff,
v. Case No. 1:19-cv-00969 (TNM)
STEVEN T. MNUCHIN, in his official capacity as Secretary of the Department of the Treasury et al.

THIS opinion will be used by many other district-circuit judges to STOP Democrats. BIG WIN for MAGA and Trump. Judge McFadden underlined Dems power to investigate when he cited McGrain v Daughterty, 1927 precedent but this lawsuit is only regarding statutory.
NO STANDING.
