Here’s why:

Authorization for Use of Military Force (AUMF), Pub. L. 107-40

The applicable text:

Section 1 – Short Title

This joint resolution may be cited as the ‘Authorization for Use of Military Force’.

Section 2 – Authorization For Use of United States Armed Forces

(a) IN GENERAL- That the President is authorized to use all necessary and appropriate force against those nations, organizations, or persons he determines planned, authorized, committed, or aided the terrorist attacks that occurred on September 11, 2001, or harbored such organizations or persons, in order to prevent any future acts of international terrorism against the United States by such nations, organizations or persons.

This authorization has NEVER been rescinded.

Business Insider has reported that the AUMF has been used to allow military action in Afghanistan, the Philippines, Georgia, Yemen, Djibouti, Kenya, Ethiopia, Eritrea, Iraq, and Somalia.

Source: Woody, Christopher. “Congress may repeal the post-9/11 act the US military used to justify the fight against ISIS”. Business Insider.

Building a wall or barrier is textbook combat engineer countermobility operation.

The courts won’t be able to interfere with national defense military operations - unless a judge wants to be charged with treason.

Go TRUMP - MAGA
Go Melania aka Lady MAGA
