WASHINGTON — President Trump will order the construction of a Mexican border wall on Wednesday, White House officials said, and is mulling plans to stop Syrian refugees from entering the country and to slash immigration of refugees from “terror prone” nations, perhaps as early as this week.

During an appearance at the Department of Homeland Security on Wednesday, Mr. Trump plans to sign an executive order to direct federal funds to be shifted toward the building of a wall on the southern border that became a signature promise of his campaign. He has argued that doing so is vital to gaining control over the illegal flow of immigrants into the United States.

You go ahead and play your silly “stalling” game, Chuckie. In the mean time, I’m going to build a wall.

I don’t need no stinkin’ cabinet.

I’m so exhausted. Almost to the point of wanting a break.

He has to stop USCIS from taking any more applications from illegal aliens for DACA.
Every day that goes by with no action 140-150 more illegal aliens are being given work papers and permission to stay.
Even if they don’t rescind the papers already given out they have to stop issuing new ones right away.

A three legged wall, sensors/surveillance, troops, physical barriers. Anything less won’t get the job done.

Being able to work ~18 hours/day, every day will tend to put one inside of the OODA Loop of most mere mortals.

RWR passed on the Republic’s baton last November and is smiling somewhere tonight, knowing that DJT is already running the next leg of our survival race with all the heart he can muster.

Based on his campaign it is obvious he doesn’t sleep much.

He is all action, all the time. The libs cannot keep up.

This thing better be so big you can see it from low orbit. I’ll be disappointed if not.

In FY2015 the US government foreign aid to Mexico was over $500 million. We could build a wall with that kind of money.
