President Trump is so eager to complete hundreds of miles of border fence ahead of the 2020 presidential election that he has directed aides to fast-track billions of dollars worth of construction contracts, aggressively seize private land and disregard environmental rules, according to current and former officials involved with the project.
Tragic. Excuse me while I go get a hanky to dry my eyes.
There was this little gem in the article as well:
“Defense Secretary Mark T. Esper is expected to approve a White House request to divert $3.6 billion in Pentagon funds to the barrier project in coming weeks”
That’s enough to build a lot of wall.
We can expect a lot of rending of garments and gnashing of teeth over that - and another trip to the Supreme Court.
If Trump can’t take land at fair market value, then all those areas cities take are subject too same rulings and they don’t pay for them are not viable either.
Same goes for this J & J lawsuit, what the idiots forget is it applies to ALL PHARMA drugs and products. People don’t remember or are unaware that Suboxone that the PROP Addiction Shrink Andrew Kolodny supports the use of in his Phoenix House Rehabs has been successfully sued.
