Note the first sentence: “The Trump administration has started the arduous process of cancelling $3.6 billion in military construction projects to fund its plans to build a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border.” False premise once again. Please explain how it is arduous, and which projects are being cancelled?

For context, DoD spent 12 Billion dollars per month in Iraq.

3.6 Billion dollars for a national security border wall project doesn’t even register as a drop in the bucket.
