Mexico seems rather unwilling to pay for Trumps wall of idiocy. So Trump had to get the money from somewhere.

Pentagon to Divert Money From 127 Projects to Pay for Trump’s Border Wall
By Helene Cooper and Emily Cochrane
Sept. 3, 2019

The Pentagon will delay or suspend 127 military construction projects so that $3.6 billion can be diverted to shore up President Trump’s border wall, Defense Department officials said Tuesday.

Pentagon officials on Tuesday began notifying congressional representatives from areas that house the affected projects, and the decision to divert the funding prompted outcry from Democrats over what they viewed as a violation of Congress’s authority to set spending.

The move is part of President Trump’s declaration in February of a national emergency in order to gain access to billions of dollars that Congress refused to give him to build a wall along the border with Mexico. After losing a battle with lawmakers over that funding — a fight that led to a partial government shutdown — the president argued that the flow of drugs, criminals and illegal immigrants from Mexico constitutes a national security threat that justified using the military without specific approval from lawmakers.

Defense Department officials declined to publicly identify the affected projects until lawmakers had been notified, but they said that about half of the $3.6 billion would be taken from planned military construction projects overseas. The remainder would come from planned projects in the United States.

What are you winning? Mexico is not paying for the wall.

And our military will suffer because of it.

Would you rather Trump cut off your food stamps and other free stuff?

Lol! The recipient of generational government free stuff is trying to crack jokes.

Like we haven't already 2x before, dumbass!

I think funding for the wall should come out of those Congresses pockets!

It's OK, a wall will pay for itself within 3 years, everything after that is gravy.

Mmm, gravy. I like gravy.
 
IM2, sweetie, as a temporary measure, in the face of House intransigence, Our Exalted President is fulfilling his campaign promise of building a Wall. Because the invasion from the South has national security ramifications, he exercised Executive discretion in diverting DoD funds from other stuff to the Wall. Questionable, but nothing more questionable that his predecessors have done.

Historically, you might remember that the Interstate Highway System was initially rejected as being outside Congress powers under Article I, so it was re-branded as the "National Interstate and Defense Highways Act," in order not to offend the Constitution. The Wall is just as much national defense as the interstate highway system.

Mexico WILL pay for the Wall in due course, if the House ever gets its collective head out of its ass. An assessment on remittances by Mexican nationals back home will (would) be part of Trump's "comprehensive immigration solution" and will pay for the wall. Other provisions would include taking care of "Dreamers," a provision for permanent status for illegals who have jumped through the appropriate hoops, and so forth.

But the Democrats in Congress DO NOT WANT immigration problems resolved or the Wall (just like they don't really want a $15 minimum wage), because keeping the issue alive for political exploitation is more important to them than good governance.

IKR? Every now and then I find some useful info on USMB such as the OP. But most times I just literally laugh my ass off over the absolutely brain washed twaddle that gets posted here in defense of the Orange Witless Simpleton in the Oval Office.

Yeah, I'll play. Because Mexico is not paying for the wall and they were paying their own soldiers anyway. So they are not paying. There we so many Obama care lies to that more people had health insurance than ever and are fighting Trump every time he tries to end it.

Quit lying for Trump.

We have a wall. Mexico won't ever pay anything and Trump has no plan.

Now you can stop repeating what talk show hosts tell you as well as Trumps lies. Under the last president illegal immigration was at historic lows.

Sweetie, go learn the truth.
