President Donald Trump lashed out again at the American judiciary for blocking a piece of his agenda.

Except on Wednesday, he got his court wrong.

In a morning tweet, he blamed the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals for blocking his order to withhold funding from so-called sanctuary cities. He called the ruling "ridiculous" and signaled that his administration will appeal by saying "see you in the Supreme Court."

The problem: Tuesday's ruling did not come from the 9th Circuit. It was made in federal district court in San Francisco.

Earlier this year, the 9th Circuit did block Trump's executive order restricting travel from several predominantly Muslim countries.

White House chief of staff Reince Priebus also targeted the appeals court in comments to reporters Tuesday, according to The Hill.

Politico, which first pointed out Trump's error, noted that the 9th Circuit would hear the case next if the Trump administration appeals.

9th whatever. It's not that big of a mistake.

It is when he talks about dismantling the 9th for "all of their rulings" and so far there's only been ONE.

It still makes me snicker a little when I see his quote from the immigration ruling back in February, when he said "see you in court" after he'd just lost in court....

The analogies of someone yelling "let's take this outside" after getting beat down 'outside in an alley were hysterical...

At least this time he remembered to all "supreme" in his comment....IF it makes it that far.

Actually I think a better analogy would be that he got his ass kicked inside and then yelled "Let's take this outside!"

For years court watchers have been saying we need a second Supreme Court just to correct the 9th circuit. BTW, our own 8th Circuit Court of Appeals is now seriously competing for the crown of dumbest court in the land.
