Absolutely from the drug and gun running.

We'll save a few bucks by not giving them our weapons, too. And probably save American lives.

We are being bled dry by illegal aliens claiming child tax credits, some for dependents that may not exist or are in Mexico.
One year I remember reading the IRS sent out $42 billion worth of checks to illegal aliens, some 200 to the same address in Atlanta.

I would love to see businesses, start w the federal government, paying employer taxes on every single worker, regardless of their immigration status. Start with the VA.. they are getting cheap, foreign “doctors”.. without paying employer citizen taxes.. not sure about union slavery and immigrants though.

If an illegal alien makes enough money to send $1,000.00 to family in Mexico and still have some to buy a pickup , groceries, etc., show me his W2! Illegals don’t need no steenking W2.

Is anyone at the IRS awake. /ret
The just answer would be a 100% tax on anything going to Mexico, w/o W2!

"But the government cannot spend money without congressional authorization..."

Really?! Did anybody bother to tell Obama that? Oh, I forgot -- he's a Constitutional scholar, so I'm sure he knows it already...

MILLIONS can be had by simply putting a 10% surcharge on every dollar sent to foreign homelands-effectively having Mexicans and illegals pay for the wall.

How about ALL OF THE ABOVE: Seize drug money from illegals, seize property, cut off tax breaks, cut off remittances... do it all.

article is BS. Congress already approve the spending, years ago.

The issue, is Trump wants Mexico to pay us back.

For example, a company builds a product - they use their money to do so, but when they sell it, the receive $$$ thus the customer “paid” for the product.

Why the hell is everyone confusing this? Just because the general budget buys the bricks does NOT mean Mexico won’t pay for the wall, just as in the above example.

Wasn’t money appropriated under W? It was just never spent.

Wouldn’t that be enough to get started?

My impression from IRS officials response to this travesty is that they had orders from on high to not look at this too closely.

I think that will change with a Trump administration.

Many sources of revenue in which the wall can be built.

**Last week, retired IRS officials Rob Warren offered the idea of cracking down on a loophole that sends billions of dollars to illegal immigrants working in the United States.**

BTTT!

Tax Loophole = “earned” income credit.

Would this work?...

For all the drugs confiscated, fly them back to where they originated, (or to somewhere that they are legal) and auction them off.

Put the money toward the wall.
