Nancy Pelosi voices fury at Donald Trump getting $3.6 billion of military building cash diverted to build his Mexican wall as Pentagon prepares to come clean on what projects it is taking it from
Nancy Pelosi slammed the Pentagon's plan to divert $3.6 billion in military construction projects to build Donald Trump's border wall
She said lawmakers will 'fight this unacceptable and deeply dangerous decision in the Courts, in the Congress and in the court of public opinion'
Defense Secretary Mark Esper informed congressional leaders on Tuesday
A full list of the 127 projects affected will be released later this week
The move will fund 175 miles of border wall, which will be a combination of new structures and improvements to already existing barricades
Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer called it a 'slap in the face' to military

“She said lawmakers will ‘fight this unacceptable and deeply dangerous decision in the Courts, in the Congress and in the court of public opinion”
Translation: “I’ve lost but I’ve got to keep up appearances for the base.”
It isn’t Donald Trump’s wall, it is America’s wall. And we need it!
Fine, go ahead and fight it in the courts. And while you’re busy wasting time and taxpayer money, Trump will get the wall built.
Pukelosi is just another political whore.
Eat it, Nancy!
And please go ahead and fight it in the court of public opinion. You will lose. Yooogely.
NOW Schmuckie is concerned about the military?!
Not tired of winning yet.
Dhimmicrats keep saying walls dont work. So cars can drive through a 30 foot tall steel wall? Pregnant women and small children can climb over a 30 foot barrier? Even the subset of men that can pull off climbing it will be slowed down enough to get guards there with the sensors telling them they are there. Even if it only stops 90%, it is better than the 0% we have now
They signed on to having Trump move funds when they agreed to the budget deal. This is all just posturing.
Did that, lost...
...in the Congress...
Did that, lost...
...and in the court of public opinion'
Doing that, losing...

She’ll get over it. Trump should tell her to just “enjoy the suck”.
Congress buys votes by spending tax dollars in their districts on “pork belly” projects. Trump not only funded 175 miles of wall but also forced the Dems to renege on their bribes. LOL
Yeah she’s military. That money would go to the illegals first before the military ever seen it if she had her way
I am retired military and one thing I remember is that every penny allocated for a physical year, which ends the end of this month must be spent or returned. If it is not spent you budget is likely to be lower the next year. So taking money that has not yet been spent and spending it on a contract for the wall ensures the projects it came from will continue to budgeted at this years rate beginning October 1. So nobody is going to be hurt by this, except for the feelings of the likes of dirtbags Pelosi and Schumer.
Or the $25 bil POTUS asked for in the first place. Well...maybe 30 now, price has gone up. Still got the Canucks too.
Elections have consequences. Right Nan?
Guess Trump is going to get us that wall after all!
What’s wrong Nancy....you didn’t get your customary 25%???
Yay POTUS! And as an aside, I just wired some money to another state. Hmm...rates went up. Did you know it’s cheaper to wire money to Mexico, than stateside? Grrr!
Thats right NAN, get that blood pressure up. Something might blow and then you can go slobber on yourself in a nursing home for a while....
