John Salisbury’s outline continued:
4. However there are some other factors that are in play here. One of them is that the President has declared a Human Rights Emergency AND has notified Congress that he’s invoking the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985. 5. This opens up new options.
6. By making these two declarations President Trump has just communicated that he has the authority to NOT spend any funds he doesn’t deem necessary and will return them to the US Treasury. So, funds for Planned Parenthood? He can simply not allocate the funds.
7. Also, these declarations make some funds fungible. For instance if he determines that building a Wall on the Southern Border is a defense against Human Trafficking? He can move funds from anywhere else in the Defense Dept Allocation & simply build the Wall.
8. Congress is powerless to stop cash reallocations on an omnibus bill AND cannot stop the DOD from taking measures under a declared Emergency. 9. Despite their language in the Omnibus Bill about the Border Wall, it is trumped by the State of Emergency that Trump declared.
8) So in summary - This will go to the Courts. Congress will sue the President over the Border Wall. But here’s how it will play out - Congress and the President are co-equal branches with different functions. Congress allocates. The President spends.
9) The President has National Security as his Primary Responsibility and it’s his job to use whatever funds and declarations he needs to for that job. No Court in this Nation (except corrupt on the take Judges) would EVER rule against a President for exercising that authority.
10) In the end the Supreme Court (yes, that’s where it will end) will fully VALIDATE the President’s Constitutional Authority & the Wall will be built. /end #MAGA #QAnon #TQFam #8Chan #TheGreatAwakening #TheStormIsHere @POTUS #InternetBillOfRights #FreeTheInternet
forget THAT donnie.
“he United States will give Mexico $48.66 million dollars to be used directly for peace and security within the country, according to PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP. The goal of this foreign assistance is to weaken transnational criminal organizations, reform legal institutions and create a modernized border greater for greater prosperity and security for both countries.”
Boots for our boots, jets for our pilots, ETC ETC ETC. I am so mad it’s ungodly. Well, I take that back, it is a righteous anger because this is simply UNJUST. Send our guys to war without working equipment.
sounds like the same demons talking to zero are talking to donnie.
To this simple-minded guy it seems as though the wall would be a national defense measure.
I hope he does
Army Corp of Engineers and Cee Bees need practice
Trump’s playing chess, put away your checkers.
Build that damn wall!!!! 8>)
Yes, what did President Trump say he likes to do? Read contracts and figure out how to take advantage of them!
Bwahahahahahaha!
That amount pales in comparison to what we pay to support illegals in this country. President Trump is the best President to the military in decades. He may even outshine President Reagan when all is said & done.
He alluded to that in his press conference. It was just a passing remark, but he tied immigration to national defense and as a CBP employee that caught my attention.
If you look at their report cards, then based on just their first years in office he already has.
I believe they did, see my posts #7 & #13.
Yes that is correct. I was of course speaking over his term(s). Because that is the only way you can compare the two honestly. 8>)
Also the President can declare the Drug crisis and the illegal crisis “A Clear and Present Danger to the United States” Federalize the National Guard and p[lace them on the border to secure it.
The Congress and Judiciary have no authority to stop him as he is Commander in Chief of the U.S. Military and that authority is absolute.
if that is correct, then it would why Ryan and McConnel gave the dems everything they wanted in order to get this passed.
And PDJT’s reaction to signing it was consistent with the plan.
Ahhh.. thought that might be the case, especially after recalling that Ryan and McConnell met with POTUS in the days leading up to the votes.
To point 4;
7058(d) of the bill is 145 million, not all of it.
7058(d) is quoted in the post in the link below. That is the only section of the bill referenced in the letter to congress.

a lower court injunction could temporarily halt construction. But the issue of national security will move it immediately to SCOTUS (Sessions already has written the motion, I have no doubt, as immigration is his wheelhouse)
