This is good if true. This just covers the emergency declaration. Trump still needs a funding source — military or whatever — of $x billion per year.
I am not sure what the max annual spend rate is for this project, e.,g. what is the most they could build and spend each year on an unconstrained basis? You start with an unconstrained view and then throttle it back based on funds available each year. Basic project management stuff.
If Trump goes this route he needs to blitz it and get as much done as possible before the judges start bogging it down.
Ditto! $20B or stay home!
Invasion IS an emergency.
(Illegal immigration and immigration of our enemies is INVASION!)
What I’d like to see is the military being deployed to stop the invasion, and being given “invasion” rules of engagement.
if its not true ..cnn would have proven just how they are ...liars
Trump has probably had his lawyers on
this for quite some time, knowing that
Nancy’s stubbornness would block any
wall finding. Playing them to show what
he has said all along. They’re
obstructionists. They don’t care about
the furloughed workers, or America’s
sovereignty and security. The CNN
leak my have been planned to put
more pressure on the house to do
their job before Trump pulls the
trigger for a national emergency.
The way I get to what is the right thing to do:
There already is 1 or more caravans that came to our borders, and I guess they all got in... or most... which was not legal.
There are 7+ thousand heading toward our United States southern border tonight.. which is not legal.
The dems won’t cooperate in stopping this...they won’t vote for the wall or anything... they want them all to come in. We don’t know who they are and they are not welcome this way.
The reasons behind NOT getting the illegal immigration fixed, is purely political..
So do whatever and however the President has available to get the wall DONE ASAP. !
I dont trust cnn fake news as a sole source for anything.
The idea, however, is a tremendous one and I hope Trump is preparing to do it asap.
I also hope he is preparing to adjourn congress until the shutdown is over.
He so damn well can do it.

Hope it’s true.
How to steal a nation:
Allow illegals to be counted in the Census.
Open borders.
Increase representation in Congress and that adds Electoral votes.
Another bluff, unlikely to work unless the desire is to be given the middle finger by Pelosi.
FEMA has 58 billion for national emergencies
Just an idea:
Move the sections of the wall near San Deago somewhere else since Pelosi says they re immoral.
Why not the original $25 billion. You could get that by siphoning off a year’s worth of defense pork.
This idea sets a terrible precedent.
If this works, you can bet your bottom dollar the next time there is a Democratic President and the Republicans control one of the chambers of Congress, or both, we’ll be getting the “Climate Change National Emergency” measure with a half-trillion dollars of spending attached. Not to mention the “Health Care National Emergency” with a trillion-dollar single-payer scheme attached, followed immediately by the “Undocumented Immigrant National Emergency” multi-billion dollar amnesty/citizenship program.
This essentially end-runs around the Constitution to establish a borderline dictatorship.
In addition, if Trump does go this route, what will happen is the Democrats will fight with every legal delaying trick in the book. Not a dime will be spent on actual construction for months as it winds its way through the courts, and it’s incredibly unlikely significant portions of the wall will be finished by 2020 or 2024, at which point the Democrat President will declare the Emergency over, stop the construction and you’ll have a half-finished, graffitti-covered thing, forever linked to the Trump Presidency and the Republican party hanging over the South and the Border as the greatest white-elephant project in the nation’s history.
Make Congress pass a law.
Follow the Constitution.
How to steal the nation.
Allow illegals to be counted in the Census.
Open the borders.
Offer Sanctuary and benefits to illegals.
Increase your representation in Congress and that adds Electoral votes.
Yes, one party is colluding with foreign nations to impact our elections.
