On ABC’s “This Week” this Sunday, Attorney General, Jeff Sessions remarked that through the improperly paid tax credits to “mostly Mexicans”, the border wall could be funded.
The following is a partial transcript:
STEPHANOPOULOS: You sound quite confident right there.
Do you have any evidence that Mexico is going to pay for it?
SESSIONS: Well, we’re going to get paid for it one way or the other. I know there’s $4 billion a year in excess payments, according to the Department of the Treasury’s own inspector general several years ago that are going to payments to people — tax credits that they shouldn’t get.
Now, these are mostly Mexicans.
And those kind of things add up — $4 billion a year for 10 years is $40 billion. There are a lot of ways we can find money to help pay for this. But in the long run…
STEPHANOPOULOS: How are you going to…
SESSIONS: — they’ve lost those…
STEPHANOPOULOS: — account for that money?
SESSIONS: What’s that?
STEPHANOPOULOS: How are you going to account for…
SESSIONS: Well, we just…
STEPHANOPOULOS: — that money?
SESSIONS: The Department of Treasury, several years ago, under the Obama administration, said that if you change the regulations and enforced it properly, you would save up to $4 billion a year.
There are other things that we can do at the border to create revenue that would pay for the wall. There’s no doubt about that.
STEPHANOPOULOS: But in your discussions with your counterparts in Mexico, they have given no indication at all that the Mexican government is prepared to pay a single cent for this wall (INAUDIBLE)?
SESSIONS: Well, I don’t expect the Mexican government to appropriate money for it. But there are ways that we can deal with our trade situation to create the revenue for it. No doubt about it.
Thank you so much for posting that info about OANN! We have DirecTV and had no idea that we got OANN.
President Trump to meet with Breitbart, OANN, etc Monday!!!
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
This is one of the moves I’ve been waiting patiently for President Trump to take. Bypassing the lying, anti-American mainstream news media by favoring the second tier news media organizations that strive to report the unbiased facts Americans desperately need to hear is long overdue.
From San Diego to Brownsville.
I don’t care who pays for it, and I don’t care what President Trump promised on the campaign trail about who’d pay for it. I just want the wall built. Now.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Yes, right away, as in NOW! I recently read that all the Leftists have their panties twisted because the wall will have an adverse effect on birds and bats! Apparently they’ve lost their ability to fly!
Could probably fund a wall across the Canadian border, too.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Yes, and although most Americans and Canadians will gasp at the thought, I believe it will eventually need to be done because Canadian politics and culture is getting more and more leftist kooky everyday.
George looks stupid asking the same question in ten different ways and getting the same answer ten times.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Georgie has looked like a horses ass ever since his debut in public life.
How do they make those? I would love to make one where a photo of Hillary is on the left and “arrest her now” is on the right LOL!
LOL. Good one! Thanks for the laugh!
They also claim kids that even live in Mexico for the child tax credit.
EITC should be abolished.
And phantom kids that live in Mexico too.

Go F yourself Georgie, you Clintoon hack
How is Stephy still on TV?? So annoying & he’s literally shrinking.
You’re welcome.
It’s great to finally have access to this excellent conservative news channel. Directv started carrying OANN on April 5 and it’s conveniently located just above CSPAN.
I just wish biggredd1 would respond with the details of President Trump’s appearances tomorrow.
That link simply doesn’t work—and I don’t dare want to miss any of my President’s interviews.
Breitbart is a different story—at least, that site is readily available with articles and audio podcasts.
Please see my post #34.
I propose the idea of seizing all assets when a deported is caught back in... there’d be a lot of ‘99 hondas and ‘15 Cameros on the market if that went through...
Yes, it is! I just found it a couple of weeks ago. It is tops in my book.

We can do better. Money transfers to Ukraine for example, bank to bank are hit with a 10 percent fee.
Just think Stephanopolus got his start by being Bill’s butt boy
