NO FUNDING FOR Planned Parenthood. And we WILL get the wall.

LS needs to catch up.

As CINC, Trump will use the Army Corps of Engineers, especially the Greencastle Corps to build the wall using the funds allocated for military construction of ‘National Defense’ structures.

Greencastle, Indiana, VP Mike Pence’s stomping grounds.

The President is declaring a National Defense structure to be built under his authority using funds allocated by Congress for military purposes.

Of course, there will be a lower level liberal judge that will rule to stop construction. My bet is SCOTUS will overrule that decision in record time.

...NO funding for ABORTION - NO ABORTION can be financed by government money!!!

Right. The Hyde Amendment has been around since 1977.

Nothing new here.

People who understand what you’ve said here should make an effort to get this point across to others who have been indoctrinated by the lying commentators in the MSM. I explain it to people at every opportunity.

One of my grammatical weaknesses: I have to chop them up on a regular basis.

I like you tag line.

>>Cash is cash...$500 million in public cash allows PP to use most of their “private” funds for abortions...w/o the public cash their would be far fewer abortions. i.e. homeless tweaker panhandler: “I didn’t use your hand out for drugs, I used the money the other guy gave me!”<<

Exactly right. And the word games on some of the posts about “not funding abortion” is nothing but crude (and obvious) political subterfuge.

Feel free. Someone gave it to me.

This kid Issac Green is really good hes got it down on many issues from Q to the latest spending bill.

>> 2. Once Congress allocates money, their job is oversight. They don’t spend the money and have no say HOW it gets spent.<<

Clarification please. If Congress has no say how the money is spent, what is their job of oversight meant to accomplish?

Thanks, very much. Part of it came from “ For Greater Glory” movie. (Viva Christo Rey”).

Democrats’ so called “assured” Blue wave, 2018 Election Dreams Could End Up as a Blue Wave Nightmare! If they were on track to beat us, the DNC would not be borrowing money!

>>So, Ryan and McConnell came up with a bill that makes a fool out of Schumer and Pelosi, and makes Trump out to be a genius?
Step away from the bong, it’s poisoned your brain.<<

I hope you have this wrong, but your statement is WELL SAID AND VERY FUNNY!

[fortes fortuna juvat]

>>Looking forward to seeing the faces of Schumer and Pelosi when this is carried out. Like ripping the all day sucker out of a brat’s hand.<<

Well said and funny too!

[deport]

I expect they can squeeze a dollar here and there out of the budget to get started.

[Liz]

I assume you never asked that question when the Halfrican p***ed away 8 trillion dollars over his 8 years in office.

How'd he do that?

Obama NEVER had a budget, just omnibus bills (quasi budgets). Not a real budget with accountability, and specific "spending orders."

He gave hundreds of millions to Iran and pallets of gold.....no one knew where he got it.

The 2018 Omnibus Bill has no orders attached. Thanks to Obama, Trump can spend it where and how he wants.

And it won’t be spent on PP, O/Care, EPA and other liberal atrocities.

Be quiet now!

Don’t wake up the Trump haters with your reality.:)

Trump is brilliant and has the ability to make the enemy think they won, and while they are gloating, he comes in for the kill.
I’ve noticed that he doesn’t do anything for no reason.

I’m willing to wait and see what the ultimate end is before rushing in to judge and condemn him when I don’t have a clue to all the facts.

Ran it by a US Senator, did you? Well, that and a fiver might get you a latte in the Swamp.

You can suck on sour grapes all you want while I’m having fun soaking up Donald’s Tweet!
**********************************************************************
Well, while you’re sucking on that tweet, don’t let it blind you to reality by lulling you into fantasy.

Remember the old saying “If wishes were fishes we’d all swim in riches.” and try to live in Realville instead of Fantasyland. LS is simply trying to bring folks back to some semblance of reality on the Omnibus legislation.

[Hostage]

I think it’s important to note the legal and constitutional distinction between ‘budget’ and ‘allocation’.

A budget is mandated in the Constitution to originate in the House, ratified in the Senate and signed into law by the Executive. A ‘budget’ carries with it a mandate that the President spend funds on budget items.

The Omnibus is not a ‘budget’. It is an allocation. As such, the Executive may draw on funds for their legislated purpose. The President may not move the allocations from one purpose to another but may do so within a purpose formatted as an appropriation. For example, the military appropriation for construction of national defense structures can be used to construct a wall along a national border if the such a wall is declared by the President to be necessary to national defense.

Other non-military appropriation in the Omnibus for border structures had allocated funds ($1.6B) for existing fence repair while calling out prohibitions that that money was not to be used for new wall construction.

If Congress had truly wanted to stop the President from constructing any new wall structure, they would have ensured there were clear words that nothing in the Omnibus, not from any allocation whatsoever, could be drawn for new wall construction. The legislators did not expect the President to declare the border wall as a national defense structure and then draw from military appropriations for its construction.

In other words, Pot of Money A is not to be used for any new border wall construction whereas Pot of Money B may be used for any National Defense structures the Executive deems necessary.

And therein lies the card that the President just played.

Of course, the President’s call will be challenged in a democrat selected court, but in appeals which I think will go straight to SCOTUS, the President’s decision will clearly survive based on the language of the Omnibus and the authority of the President.

Now there is one other comeback from the never-do-wells in Congress to play in response to the President’s unexpected actions. Congress could pass an amendment to restrict any and all new construction along the border but there is a problem for them, they’ve just pro forma recessed themselves and the President has announced wall construction begins tomorrow. A court can delay construction, but my sense is the President’s lawyers will be at SCOTUS the next day. Whatever SCOTUS does or doesn’t do, Congress is facing an election and the President’s border wall is solidly popular. We can be assured there will be no amendment from Congress that restricts the President from using the Greencastle, Indiana Army Corps of Engineers to construct the Wall. Hear that Coulter? If not, you need to stop playing boink-a-dink with Moron Maher long enough to say you’re sorry for badmouthing the President. He rolled the Swamp and you missed it.
