EPA will try to stop this, need to clean that place out
and the budget for the landmines?
Funds? As in US taxpayer money?
What happened to Mexico paying for it?
IIRC, the enabling legislation included massive environmental impact waivers that have already held up in court.
OR they can't stop anything if they no longer exist LOL...
Repeal Obamacare
Build the wall
nominate originalists to SCOTUS
Those three seem to be happening. Trump is likely to start well. I pray that he can stay focused and will have a team tough enough to fight congressional bloat. “You know, the Trump Train is still out there. I would not want to be the one who obstructed that priority and have to face them in 2018.” Trump needs an enforcer to bully legislators, and he needs a seducer to court Congress. “Perhaps you and your wife would like to have dinner at the White House, socializing with a few European ambassadors for the evening, with only a few minutes set aside to discuss Trump Administration priorities.”
GRRRRRRREAT news! Thanks for posting.
Building can begin Day 1. Reimbursement from Mexico can happen a couple of days later.
I’m sure it will come from a variety of sources - such as seized cartel money. I’m surprised money was set aside and wasn’t spent. Then there is Mexico. They will be contributing by either fees on things or other ways.
Here we go.
It still would be nice to donated $$$ for a personalized brick for the wall.
I'm OK with fronting the money, they can pay it back with interest.
I would pay to have one say Screw You Obama
“I don’t think it really needs to be a true wall. Just buy the plans from Israel and get started>”
Thank-you for this picture of the wall Israel builds> It is very instructional. I think it would be a good plan for a prepper community or someone living around hostiles.
I hope so. We need it.
The wall alone won’t do it — but it’s part of the solution. We ALSO need a major increase in the Border Patrol and ICE, fencing, other barriers, and electronic monitoring. We need to do whatever it takes to secure our borders as much as humanly possible. That is one of the primary responsibilities of the Federal government.
I think he wants to get it going ASAP...but the Mexican funding is still very much the plan. Kris Kobach (Secretary of State, KS) is on the transition team, and just a few days ago, he was on the news explaining how the US could stop wire transfers to Mexico, and force their hand.
But I love the symbolism of getting things done, right away.
“I’m OK with fronting the money, they can pay it back with interest.”
Exactly. Trump was never going to wait for that money to accumulate to build the wall. I think he must have known already that the money was there. We’re seeing the savvy come out already.
LOL at the leftists being left in the dust.
Spend that money on our Vets
Mexico will be more than happy to pay for the wall. It will also give several million re-patriated nationals something to do.
