BREAKING: Biden ‘Under Investigation’ By GAO For Halting Billions Of Dollars To Finish Border Wall, Report Says | The Daily Wire
23 Mar 2021 ~~ By Ryan Saaverda


Democrat President Joe Biden is reportedly “under investigation” for halting billions of dollars in payments that were set to go out to companies that were tasked with finishing President Donald Trump’s southern border wall.
“Now the Government Accountability Office is launching a review to determine whether the new president broke the law by freezing the money in violation of budget rules designed to keep Congress in control of the cash flow,” Politico reported. “The probe highlights the challenge presidents have historically faced in fulfilling campaign promises that require money to be spent — or suspended — at odds with Congress’ intent.”
The report comes as Biden’s border crisis has overwhelmed the U.S.-Mexico border, promoting backlash against Biden from Republicans, Democrats, and even the president of Mexico.
Forty Senate Republicans said in a letter to the Government Accountability Office that in “the weeks that followed” Biden suspending construction of the border wall that “operational control of our southern border was comprised and a humanitarian and national security crisis has ensued.”

We are writing to be added as co-requesters of a March 17, 2021 letter, signed by 40 United States Senators, requesting the Government Accountability Office’s investigation and legal opinion on the actions of the Biden Administration to suspend border wall construction and to order a freeze of funds provided by Congress for that purpose, which we believe violated the Impoundment Control Act.​

The news comes as the southern border has become overwhelmed under Biden’s leadership after the president reversed numerous policies put in place by the Trump administration. In at least one sector on the U.S. border, the Biden administration has started to release illegal border crossers into the U.S. without scheduling any kind of a court date for the migrants. Recent reports have indicated that there are more than 15,000 unaccompanied minors in U.S. custody, which is nearly twice as high as the previous record. The Washington Post recently highlighted how the Biden administration was repeatedly warned that a crisis would erupt on the border if they undid Trump’s policies—a warning that came from career officials, not just political appointees.


Comment:
In the meantime it's costing $6 million a day for all the equipment lying unused and hundreds of workers unemployed because of a petulant Chyna Joey Xi and his handlers.
Not only is Joey Xi incompetent to stand trial he wasn’t legitimately elected so he can’t be held accountable for any Executive actions he’s taken.
His lawyers have a golden client.
He could allowed the wall to be built as well as the pipeline but he is spineless sellout and the worst kind of American. Maybe we can fight to get both done as this rotting fool wastes away and before giggles the Ho takes over.
What he and his handlers have perpetrated on Americ is something far, far worse than anything Trump ever did. Democrats in their power hungry spree ruin everything.

I said it, and I'll say till the cows come home, that Biden is a national security risk, and should have never been allowed to be president. I have called these things right so many times.

The only national security risk is in Palm Beach, sitting on his fat ass.

how did that orgasm, thinking of TRUMP, work out 4 ya?

Didn't T**** do the same thing when he abused the laws to take funding from the military and bypass Congress in order to build it, too?

Using discretionary funds is not abusing the 'laws'.

Yes it is.

Clause 7. No Money shall be drawn from the Treasury but in Consequence of Appropriations made by Law; and a regular Statement and Account of the Receipts and Expenditures of all public Money shall be published from time to time.

APPROPRIATIONS
The restriction on drawing money from the Treasury “was intended as a restriction upon the disbursing authority of the Executive department,” and “means simply that no money can be paid out of the Treasury unless it has been appropriated by an act of Congress.”


The Pentagon — not Mexico — will again be paying for the construction of President Donald Trump’s wall on the US’s southern border, to the tune of $7.2 billion in 2020.

According to a Washington Post report, the White House will use last year’s national emergency declaration to pull $3.5 billion from military counter-drug enforcement, up significantly from the $2.5 billion taken from the same program in 2019. An additional $3.2 billion will be taken from Department of Defense construction projects for additional fencing projects. The number is more than five times the amount allocated to barrier construction by Congress for 2020.

No, really?

Hypocrite.

Didn't T**** do the same thing when he abused the laws to take funding from the military and bypass Congress in order to build it, too?

That move was within the POTUS powers of discretion--it was viewed as defense. This money has already been party to contract--the current WH squatter can't unilaterally cancel the contract, penalties.

There are no bills, it's in the constitution.

Article I, section 9, clause 7 of the U.S. Constitution states that "No money shall be drawn from the Treasury, but in Consequence of Appropriations made by Law..." This is what gives Congress the power to make these appropriations.

The money had already been appropriated for the dept. of defense. It was determined that southern border security was homeland security. Biden is redirecting money that has already been allotted.

No, it wasn't, it was appropriated for military building construction .

Trump was the one redirecting DOD $$$, Biden just halted it, temporarily.

Dotard redirected DOD $$$from:

$1.8 billion – are to projects at overseas bases. The largest overseas reductions were $119 million for storage warehouses at Ramstein Air Force Base in Germany and $87 million for storage at Fairford Royal Air Force Base in the United Kingdom.

$1.1 billion in cuts for U.S. bases include $95 million for an engineering center at the U.S. Military Academy in New York state; nearly $88 million for a pier and maintenance facility in Bangor, Maine; and $85 million for a Reaper-drone operations facility at Holloman Air Force Base in New Mexico.

An additional $687 million in projects were cut in U.S. territories, including 10 in Puerto Rico, eight in Guam and three in the Virgin Islands. The Puerto Rico projects include $80 million for a training-equipment site in Camp Santiago, $64 million for an aircraft hangar in San Juan and $61 million for a school replacement in Punta Borinquen.
www.usatoday.com › story › news

You are 100% correct, he did redirect "defense" dollars to other "defense" projects--well within the purview of the POTUS. The border wall IS a "defense" project.

No, it isn't.
That $$$ was directly appropriated by congress for a specific purpose.
Congress passes a bill with specific projects in mind, otherwise there wouldn't be $$$ amounts in the bill.

He had approval from the courts. He didn't need approval from Congress.

Not us that love communist and Russia.

Is that why you people elected a communist to be Mayor of New York City.

Not everyone agrees he should have declared a national emergency to do this.

Look at the border today and tell me it's not a national emergency...caused by the Biden Crime Family halting the wall construction and inviting the mass migration of criminals and possibly Covid-19 infected people into the US. Continuation of Trump's border policies would have prevented all this shit Biden has caused. And the dimwits in his administration don't even want it called a "crisis".

"Is that why you people elected a communist to be Mayor of New York City".
Never heard De Blasio defend Russia.
Never heard De Blasio defend N. Korea.
Never heard De Blasio defend China.
Never heard De Blasio praise Russia.
Never heard De Blasio praise N. Korea.
Never heard De Blasio praise China.

You're dear leader did.

Yeah, our dear leader as you refer to him, was praising their peaceable abstaining from any bad activities while he was president. Can't say the same for Biden, because the world is catching on fire again, and the left has him scared to speak one way or another about anything without raising it's eyebrows about it. Otherwise wise keep your mouth shut Joe, unless we write it down for you.

House approves spending bill with $5.7B for border wall

The House of Representatives Thursday approved a bill that would fund most of the federal government through early February -- and provides $5.7 billion for President Trump's long-promised border wall, increasing the chances of a partial government shutdown later this week.

The House of Representatives Thursday approved a bill that would fund most of the federal government through early February -- and provides $5.7 billion for President Trump's long-promised border wall, increasing the chances of a partial government shutdown later this week.

The Senate measure, which passed by voice vote late Wednesday, provided a total of $1.6 billion for border security but did not include funding for a border wall.

Didn't T**** do the same thing when he abused the laws to take funding from the military and bypass Congress in order to build it, too?

No. The wall is a national security issue. The Dumbocrats tried to stop him in court and failed.

That wall was not a national security issue.

Makes me think back to what Trump got impeached over when he held back from Ukraine the money congress had allocated. Not much similarity in regards to the charge of using the funds for political blackmail, but its good somebody is keeping an eye on the situation. To do things legally the current congress would at least have to rescind the wall money allocated by the previous congress.

Good grief!

Why did Trump pause funding for Ukraine?

Pause is not the same as withheld - Ukraine got the money before the end of the fiscal year.

they only got the cash, cause that pause was illegal.

GAO: Trump’s hold on Ukraine aid violated budget law
1974 budget law limits presidential authority to prohibit congressionally approved spending
GAO: Trump’s hold on Ukraine aid violated budget law - Roll Call

understand the difference here:

cash approved & allocated by CONGRESS, cannot be paused, halted or diverted to programs etc... by the prez.

whatever $$$ was allocated by CONGRESS to go for that wall ... has to go for that wall.

an EO is additional funding taken from programs etc NOT earmarked for that wall.

same goes for the money allocated by CONGRESS for ukraine.

Hmmm, so how did Biden get away with his threat of withholding million's of dollar's, otherwise if the prosecutor wasn't fired in Ukraine ??

If it worked for Biden, then why wouldn't it work again, except this time it would have been something good for American interest, and this would be by investigating exactly why Biden threatened the withholding of funds, otherwise if the Ukrainian official's didn't do something about the prosecutor ????

Biden ‘Under Investigation’ By GAO For Halting Billions Of Dollars To Finish Border Wall, Report Says
BREAKING: Biden ‘Under Investigation’ By GAO For Halting Billions Of Dollars To Finish Border Wall, Report Says | The Daily Wire
23 Mar 2021 ~~ By Ryan Saaverda


Democrat President Joe Biden is reportedly “under investigation” for halting billions of dollars in payments that were set to go out to companies that were tasked with finishing President Donald Trump’s southern border wall.
“Now the Government Accountability Office is launching a review to determine whether the new president broke the law by freezing the money in violation of budget rules designed to keep Congress in control of the cash flow,” Politico reported. “The probe highlights the challenge presidents have historically faced in fulfilling campaign promises that require money to be spent — or suspended — at odds with Congress’ intent.”
The report comes as Biden’s border crisis has overwhelmed the U.S.-Mexico border, promoting backlash against Biden from Republicans, Democrats, and even the president of Mexico.
Forty Senate Republicans said in a letter to the Government Accountability Office that in “the weeks that followed” Biden suspending construction of the border wall that “operational control of our southern border was comprised and a humanitarian and national security crisis has ensued.”

The lawmakers wrote:

We are writing to be added as co-requesters of a March 17, 2021 letter, signed by 40 United States Senators, requesting the Government Accountability Office’s investigation and legal opinion on the actions of the Biden Administration to suspend border wall construction and to order a freeze of funds provided by Congress for that purpose, which we believe violated the Impoundment Control Act.​

The news comes as the southern border has become overwhelmed under Biden’s leadership after the president reversed numerous policies put in place by the Trump administration. In at least one sector on the U.S. border, the Biden administration has started to release illegal border crossers into the U.S. without scheduling any kind of a court date for the migrants. Recent reports have indicated that there are more than 15,000 unaccompanied minors in U.S. custody, which is nearly twice as high as the previous record. The Washington Post recently highlighted how the Biden administration was repeatedly warned that a crisis would erupt on the border if they undid Trump’s policies—a warning that came from career officials, not just political appointees.


Comment:
In the meantime it's costing $6 million a day for all the equipment lying unused and hundreds of workers unemployed because of a petulant Chyna Joey Xi and his handlers.
Not only is Joey Xi incompetent to stand trial he wasn’t legitimately elected so he can’t be held accountable for any Executive actions he’s taken.
His lawyers have a golden client.
He could allowed the wall to be built as well as the pipeline but he is spineless sellout and the worst kind of American. Maybe we can fight to get both done as this rotting fool wastes away and before giggles the Ho takes over.
What he and his handlers have perpetrated on Americ is something far, far worse than anything Trump ever did. Democrats in their power hungry spree ruin everything.

I said it, and I'll say till the cows come home, that Biden is a national security risk, and should have never been allowed to be president. I have called these things right so many times.

The only national security risk is in Palm Beach, sitting on his fat ass.

how did that orgasm, thinking of TRUMP, work out 4 ya?
TRUMP =AMERICA
idiots like you, are the risk to AMERICA

We didn't attempt an insurrection.
The Trump cult did.
Now they will pay, along with the lying, orange, security threat/disaster.

your right, you retards didnt attempt, you succeeded....after all, it was your idols that paid antifa and black flies matter criminals their wages last summer. then they paid to cart them to the next city to victimize.

Whatever Q NUT.
