Reuters/Kevin LamarquePresident Donald Trump speaks while participating in a tour of US-Mexico border wall prototypes near the Otay Mesa Port of Entry in San Diego, California.

• The Trump administration is preparing to divert $US7.2 billion from the Pentagon’s budget to fund the president’s US-Mexico border wall this year, according to a Washington Post report published Monday.
• The reported figure is five times greater than $US1.4 billion Congress allotted for the project in the 2019 and 2020 federal budget.
• The new plan suggests the administration will increase the amount taken from military construction projects to $US3.7 billion.
• According to the plan, the administration is also preparing to divert $US3.5 billion from the military’s counter-drug operations, which is $US1 billion more than it took in 2019.

He has to check in with the mothership to see what his response should be. Be patient, he'll return.

 

Is this $7.2 billion like the $1 billion Saudi Arabia supposedly payed us or is it from what the Mexicans were supposed to pay???

 

Calm your tits, I had shit to do. I fail to see how both thoughts are incongruent. I don't believe there's a crisis at the border; opioid panickers do. I also didn't vote for a guy to counter the "opioid epidemic" who's now welshing on that, red hats did.
