“Of course today was dominated by many stories, one of which was the bipartisan budget bill for border security. And the big number is—that the president was not happy with—was $1.375 billion to build a border barrier. He could do whatever he wanted with it,” Kilmeade began. “The question was, ‘Would the president add something with that? Would he declare a national emergency?’ I just got off the phone with Mick Mulvaney, chief of staff, and the answer is a resounding ‘Yes.’ Now for the first time, you will hear how much it is and where the money is coming from.”
“It’s going to be about $8 billion. He had the $1.3 [billion], then $600 million will come from the Treasury, the Treasury forfeiture front. $2.5 billion out of [Department of Defense]. They consulted with Mick Mulvaney and the White House over the last few months on what they could actually do and they are going to use some money they feel they can spare on the drug interdiction account,” he continued. “Then they came across with $3.5 billion for the military, the military construction budget.”
Confirmed an hour ago by ABC White House reporter Jonathan Karl…

And at my advanced age my sense of optimism and been greatly diminished to the point of non-existence when it comes to the Restoration of our Republic.
At 65 I pretty much agree with you.
As a poster on another thread astutely pointed out. The vote margins yesterday represent an impeachment majority in both the house and senate. Trump is effectively a defacto puppet of whoever has bought our congress...
Sorry to hear you’re not interested in joining us for the long haul. I’m 65 and will fight to the end of my life against the enemy. If you care to sadly watch from the sidelines, that’s too bad.
Trump may be alone now, but there’s something called a force multiplier in efforts such as this. Wars have been won before.
Besides voting, again, for the President what would you suggest this 72 year old Vet do? Please! Other than posting on BB’s, what specific “fighting” are you doing, other than throwing barbs at fellow conservatives?
As it is obviously important to you, go ahead and have the “last word” in a pretty inane exchange.
Well not sure he is a puppet, but he has certainly been hamstrung. The sad fact is the long knives that are coming at him from the GOP.
Both my sinators voted for this travesty.
Both.
Never knew they were beholdin’ to child sex traffickers personally but I’ve been wrong about other people in the past too so...score one for my being too trusting.
sometime soon he should name the GOP senators and House members he doesn’t support so party opponents can primary them.
Listen and weep:

“The sad fact is the long knives that are coming at him from the GOP.”
The GOP are just the knife holding robotic arms of the real perps. Need to find out who they are.
I’m sorry, forgive me. I had no idea you were incapable of licking envelopes and dialing phones. I do this for my local candidates - and also volunteer at events like County Fairs. But I guess that’s too demanding for a 72-year old vet.
My apologies.
