He should ditch the “military version of eminent domain” and order the Pentagon to start building...
[M]any legal scholars say there is a way Trump could act legally. Current law allows the Defense Department to use “un-obligated” money to fund construction projects during war or emergencies. “The Department of Defense has funds in its account that are not specifically designated for anything,” Harvard Law School professor Mark Tushnet told NBC News. “My instinct is to say that if he declares a national emergency and uses this pot of unappropriated money for the wall, he’s on very solid legal ground.” ...

Yes please.
THE DEMOCRATS WILL ONLY AGREE TO BORDER SECURITY THAT CAN BE UNDONE BY A FUTURE DEMOCRAT PRESIDENT SUCH AS DRONES, SENSORS, ETC.
THIS SHOULD BE OBVIOUS TO EVERYONE.. WAKE UP, AMERICA.
The Demonrats' goal is to build a SLAVE STATE THAT DOES NOT RESIST AGAINST ITS CORRUPT GOVERNMENT and beholden to the Democrats and the Democrats are willing to REPLACE AND DISPLACE CAUCASIAN AMERICA if that's what it takes!!!
It’s constitutional and right for Trump to go ahead and build the wall.
Yep, and they also know a wall will work and they will be proven wrong, again.
What a useless GOPe rag NRO had devolved into.
There are many plans that work. President Trump should choose the one with the fewest moving parts - the one where his legal team sees the least leverage for America’s black-robed ruling class to interfere. I’m more than okay with the military building the Wall, and I’d love to see it big, beautiful, and 1,000 miles long by the end of the year. [And finished by the end of next year.] That’s why we have the Army Corps of Engineers and the Navy Seabees.
And if a federal judge disagrees, tell the judge to go to hell. The POTUS is in charge of defending the border, not random judges.
I think America is about as awake as it’s going to get. The problem is that the Uniparty government doesn’t care what “America” thinks and simply won’t do what “America” wants done. They, the entrenched power (and obscene wealth) in D.C., need to be deposed and removed. Just electing a president to go it alone, no matter how capable he is, isn’t going to get it done (though it’d certainly help if he actually had a political party).
You’ve got to do it the hard way.
Yep, one of the better issues to go to the mat for.
If he’s going to back down the tyranny of the judges, this is the perfect issue.
On the mark!
And China, the Vatican, prisons, and Pelosi and Obama’s houses.
I bet that's also how she sounds when she responds to her bloated husband, George.
oops, wrong thread.
In the list of ways the ‘wall’ can be undone you forgot to include cutting torch.
Defund John.
John Fund is obviously a left leaning democrat at heart.
Hungary also sent the bill for the fence to the EU because they did NOTHING to stop the flow of migrants.
