Because the bill has already been passed.

The funds were never appropriated.

If I’m wrong here, please correct me.

Trump meets the Mexican President next week and the kenyan has promised to “weigh in” if Trump stops DACA. So it makes sense for Trump to wait on shutting down DACA until after the meeting with Nieto, IMO.

We also need a border access road to allow movement of agents along the border to respond to entry threats. It is the key to controlling the border.

> He has to stop USCIS from taking any more applications from illegal aliens for DACA.

YES! There is no reason to continue taking applications.

IIRC Congress already authorized the wall several years ago...
as to funds, how did Obama send millions to the Palestinians days before the end of his term and how did he send billions to Iran without anybody knowing about it until he was caught if there is no slush fund for the president to use?

Help spread the internet rumor:

President Trump is paying for the Wall with funds from the EBT card accounts. See, he said the Mexicans would pay for it.

Multiple times-in writing and verbally, e.g. he shot down Chuck Todd on national television when he pressed him on this subject.

We have become used to politicians not doing what they said they would do. This is almost surreal

Would a field of anti-personnel mines between the wall and another layer of fencing be overkill?

Redirect money from planned parenthood and sanctuary cities until we get Mexico to pay us back. That might get some bricks in the wall. Not sure how much wall that would build but the sequeal factor seems fun

NO SIR! I am not tired whatsoever. To be true I don’t think I’ve been this excited and anxious since I was 7 years old!
