Silly, since neither the DOJ nor FBI has been able to locate these billions as of yet.

Not sure allocating drug money is Congress's job.

Obama diverted BILLIONS of bank fines to the DNC and other pet projects with ZERO accountability!

Can congress give Rep. Vern Buchanan a hardy “NO SALE” quickly so we can send this story to the trash heap? That isn’t what I want, but it’s going to happen, nevertheless.

Seeing as that a good portion of the illegal drugs are coming across our Southern border it sounds like a good idea to me.

An effective border wall would do more to reduce the inflow of drugs from Mexico than anything else that money could do. It would be a legitimate use of the money except that i am sure there is some wording that limits its use to largely ineffective means.
