Alert the American haters!...Pentagon transferring (Another) $3.8 billion to border wall

[ChrisL]

keep on dreaming.....

The wall is a figment of Trump's tiny mind and it will disappear with Trump.

....and you keep on dreaming too.

It will rust-out and fall down on it's own.

That’s about it

We don’t have to tear it down. Just defund it
Divert funds for maintenance and Border Patrol to more important purposes

Within a short while, the wall will be useless

The Pentagon is moving $3.8 billion from various weapons programs such as the F-35 fighter jet to pay for President Trump’s southern border wall, according to a notice sent to Congress on Thursday (13 Feb 2020)...

Congress twice voted to overturn Trump's emergency declaration, which allowed him to reprogram defense funds for the wall, but were unable to override his vetoes.

The money being reprogrammed Thursday is being taken under a different executive authority that allows counter-drug funds to be used on the wall.

The notice says that $2.2 billion from the Pentagon’s base fiscal 2020 budget and $1.6 billion from a war fund known as the Overseas Contingency Operations (OCO) account will be transferred to the Pentagon’s counter-drug fund, which will then be used on the wall.

(Excerpt) Read more at thehill.com ...

-----------

Billions more likely coming from separate accounts in DoD (Military Construction).

Just today's transfer, is more money than the President received from Congress for the wall in 2017, 2018 and 2019 combined. And it is only a part of what will be hitting the street this year.

We are off to the races with a massive Border Wall building program.

“...account will be transferred to the Pentagon’s counter-drug fund...”

Sounds perfectly appropriate to me considering the wall will do more to “counter” drugs entering this country than just about anything else they could spend it on.

Is that going to pay for the part that blew down? The costs are getting out of hand and especially the labor sucked out for Military workers.

Well, now they know that when a large storm is comin . They don't bout up the fence until the storm is passed and the concrete has a decent chance to stabilize....sorry. everything is NEW. and a learning experience not to be repeated....and what labor sucked out.....or you just blah blahing again?

Face the facts. So you say the fence is a piece of shit, I get it. Learning experience? You accept sub-standard? Fuck you and your blah blah BS.

Talkin’ World War III Blues
WRITTEN BY: BOB DYLAN

Some time ago a crazy dream came to me

I dreamt I was walkin’ into World War Three

I went to the doctor the very next day

To see what kinda words he could say

He said it was a bad dream

I wouldn’t worry ’bout it none, though

They were my own dreams and they’re only in my head



I said, “Hold it, Doc, a World War passed through my brain”

He said, “Nurse, get your pad, this boy’s insane”

He grabbed my arm, I said, “Ouch!”

As I landed on the psychiatric couch

He said, “Tell me about it”



Well, the whole thing started at 3 o’clock fast

It was all over by quarter past

I was down in the sewer with some little lover

When I peeked out from a manhole cover

Wondering who turned the lights on



Well, I got up and walked around

And up and down the lonesome town

I stood a-wondering which way to go

I lit a cigarette on a parking meter and walked on down the road

It was a normal day



Well, I rung the fallout shelter bell

And I leaned my head and I gave a yell

“Give me a string bean, I’m a hungry man”

A shotgun fired and away I ran

I don’t blame them too much though, I know I look funny



Down at the corner by a hot-dog stand

I seen a man

I said, “Howdy friend, I guess there’s just us two”

He screamed a bit and away he flew

Thought I was a Communist



Well, I spied a girl and before she could leave

“Let’s go and play Adam and Eve”

I took her by the hand and my heart it was thumpin’

When she said, “Hey man, you crazy or sumpin’

You see what happened last time they started”



Well, I seen a Cadillac window uptown

And there was nobody aroun’

I got into the driver’s seat

And I drove down 42nd Street

In my Cadillac. Good car to drive after a war



Well, I remember seein’ some ad

So I turned on my Conelrad

But I didn’t pay my Con Ed bill

So the radio didn’t work so well

Turned on my record player—

It was Rock-a-day Johnny singin’, “Tell Your Ma, Tell Your Pa

Our Love’s A-gonna Grow Ooh-wah, Ooh-wah”



I was feelin’ kinda lonesome and blue

I needed somebody to talk to

So I called up the operator of time

Just to hear a voice of some kind

“When you hear the beep it will be three o’clock”

She said that for over an hour

And I hung up



Well, the doctor interrupted me just about then

Sayin’, “Hey I’ve been havin’ the same old dreams

But mine was a little different you see

I dreamt that the only person left after the war was me

I didn’t see you around”



Well, now time passed and now it seems

Everybody’s having them dreams

Everybody sees themselves

Walkin’ around with no one else

Half of the people can be part right all of the time

Some of the people can be all right part of the time

But all of the people can’t be all right all of the time

I think Abraham Lincoln said that

“I’ll let you be in my dreams if I can be in yours”

I said that

 

[rightwinger]

Doesn’t really matter, we will tear down the wall as soon as Trump is gone

You forget Dems were for it before they were against it. Lol

The wall is a monument to hate

It will be gone shortly after Trump is

How much, if new fence, will that pay for? Currently it's $20 Million per mile. If it keeps falling down or erosion takes care of tunneling naturally, then how much more will that cost to repair... It needs to last, right?

"Bush's fence averaged $4 million a mile; Trump's wall costs five times that—$20 million a mile. The overall cost of $11 billion is approaching the price of a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier."

A great big wall to keep the foreign invaders out of our country. Higher wages for American workers, less crime, less illegal drugs coming into the country. A win-win situation.
