United States President Donald Trump took to Twitter on Saturday to slam District Court Judge Haywood Gilliam for blocking the funding for the wall on the country's border with Mexico and his administration will appeal the decision.
"Another activist Obama appointed judge has just ruled against us on a section of the Southern Wall that is already under construction. This is a ruling against Border Security and in favor of crime, drugs and human trafficking. We are asking for an expedited appeal!" Trump wrote.
Earlier, Gilliam issued a preliminary injunction blocking the transfer of $1 billion in funds from various Defense Department projects for the construction of the wall on the Mexican border.
