Trump Tells DHS To Prepare For Border Wall Construction
Zero Hedge ^ | 01/03/17 | Tyler Durden

Posted on 01/03/2017 11:56:04 AM PST by Enlightened1

A memo from the Department of Homeland Security, which was recently reviewed by Reuters, suggest that the Trump administration plans to hit the ground running on the construction of that U.S.-Mexico border wall when they move into the White House later this month. The memo apparently summarized a meeting held between DHS officials and Trump's transition team on December 5th in which requests were made for an assessment of "all assets available for border wall and barrier construction."

In a wide-ranging request for documents and analysis, President-elect Donald Trump's transition team asked the Department of Homeland Security last month to assess all assets available for border wall and barrier construction.

The requests were made in a Dec. 5 meeting between Trump's transition team and Department of Homeland Security officials, according to an internal agency memo reviewed by Reuters. The document offers a glimpse into the president-elect's strategy for securing the U.S. borders and reversing polices put in place by the Obama administration. The Trump transition team also allegedly took aim at Obama's executive actions, requesting "copies of every executive order and directive sent to immigration agents since Obama took office in 2009."

The transition team also asked for copies of every executive order and directive sent to immigration agents since Obama took office in 2009, according to the memo summarizing the meeting.

Trump has said he intends to undo Obama's executive actions on immigration, including a 2012 order to allow children brought to the U.S. illegally by their parents to remain in the country on temporary authorizations that allow them to attend college and work.

“This will certainly send the Globalist into orbit.”

So THAT’s why they’re all coming to the inauguration.

But the #neverTrumpers told me he’d never planned to build the wall!

1. Good - Trump is intent on keeping his promises, and the wall was among the first. FANTASTIC!

2. “The transition team also asked for copies of every executive order and directive sent to immigration agents since Obama took office in 2009, according to the memo summarizing the meeting.”


Bet that this is not limited to immigration. Trump is going to pick apart everything that Obama did outside of the normal legislative process (and even some within that process), and given that he’s a businessman who’s livelihood depended on getting things done right AND fast, he will do so within very short order. Also, the logical lesson to draw from this is to NOT emulate Obama’s methods, because of the ease of reversal by a later President. Trump will follow the Constitution, and make this country strong and wealthy in the process - so by dint of the structure of laws AND popularity, his achievements will NOT be easily reversed at all. Trump builds to last, the naysayers should’ve known that from the beginning (but, then again, if they’d have actually done their research then they wouldn’t necessarily have been naysayers in the first place).

This is going to be a FUN 8 years!

The Bush family in particular will be saddened.
Their dream of turning the USA into North Mexico is dashed.

Don’t get me wrong, but I care less about the wall, than turning off the magnets that attract the illegals.

The first order of business ought to be removing them from our workforce and welfare rolls. Do just that, and 99% of them will self deport and not come back.

I think one magnet that needs to be turned off is to make it absolutely illegal for them to vote, make it a felony, make anyone who encourages or enables illegal alien voting a felony, make any election officials found to have allowed, enabled or participated in illegal alien voting felons, and throw them all in jail.

remember our Resident openly telling illegal aliens to vote? Throw him in jail for violating the civil rights of citizens.

Trump has said he intends to undo Obama's executive actions on immigration. The Trump transition team allegedly took aim at Obama's executive actions, requesting of DHS "copies of every executive order and directive sent to immigration agents since Obama took office in 2009."

According to the memo summarizing the DHS meeting, the Trump transition team also asked for:

<><> copies of every executive order and directive sent to immigration agents since Obama took office in 2009....

<><> a copy of 2012 order to allow children brought to the U.S. illegally by their parents to remain in the country on temporary authorizations that allow them to attend college and work in the US.

=============================================

Trump needs to take aim at the "delegation" horror story.

BACKSTORY---Obama was photoed signing "immigration memos" on AF One--not "executive orders." Why? B/c an E/O comes w/ legal baggage that the conniving Boobamba wanted to evade. Both "memos" are on the White house website.

Boobamba's "memos" empowered the secretaries of State and Homeland Securityin consultation with the director of the Office of Management and Budget, the director of the National Economic Council, the assistant to the president for homeland security and counterterrorism, the director of the Domestic Policy Council, the director of the Office of Science and Technology Policy, the attorney general, and the secretaries of Agriculture, Commerce, Labor and Education.

Read more at http://www.wnd.com/2014/12/amnesty-shocker-the-secret-behind-obamas-order/#4OPdzIoJFRwXopUU.99

====================================================

The scam works this way: signed Boobamba memos "delegate" to federal agencies orders to come up with plans (that patriots recognize as advancing Boobamba's global conspiracy to overthrow the US govt w/ Third World federales and their cadres jumping the US border).

The federal agencies then "invent" Committees to do this (the better to overthrow the US govt). Then "Administrative Rules," after a comment period, will be published in the "Code of Federal Regulations," which magically turns them into law........ using federal fairy dust.

So Boobamba is shielded from responsibility---he doesn't have to take the hit. Behind closed doors, he tells federal factotums what he wants.....and faster than you can say "the combo plate w/ extra hot sauce".....the overthrow of the US govt commences.

=====================================================

THE "DELEGATION" HORROR STORY--A Federal agency MO since 1946. It's down to a science: (1) publish a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM), (2) make the comment period really short, (3) stonewall any negative comments, and, (4) publish the rule, which (5) NOW has the force of US law. No Congressman was ever involved, and Boobamba doesn't leave his DNA on it. Yet again, why "Delegation" is ominous for liberty---why the writing of administrative law by federal agencies - is un-Constitutional (hat tip to FReeper Regulator.)

==============================================

REALITY CHECK---HERE'S HOW OBAMA GAVE DHS' Jeh Johnson, USCIS' RODRIGUES AND ICE'S SALDANA UNCHECKED POWER OVER US CITIZENS: Obama's amnesty memos signed aboard AF-ONE last Nov. The memos "delegate" to federal agencies, and gave presidential orders to come up with "plans" (that advance the conspiracy to overthrow the US govt).

Saldana and Rodrigues' federal agencies then "invent" Committees to do this. Then "Administrative Rules," after a comment period, are published in the "Code of Federal Regulations," which magically turns them into law........ using federal fairy dust.

So obamba is shielded from responsibility---he doesn't have to take the hit. Behind closed doors, he tells Saldana and Rodrigues what he wants.....and faster than you can say "the combo plate w/ extra hot sauce".....the overthrow of the US govt commences.
