So what’s the end game? I refuse to believe it’s actually Open Borders. That’s just a step to a permanent Democratic majority. Is it socialized medicine? Really? Is it redistribution? Really?

Buffalo_Gal Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 If the President is commander in chief and responsible for the US to be safe from foreign invaders, how in the world could a border wall be "illegal?" Supreme Court denies request to halt construction of the border wallA number of groups, including the ACLU and Sierra Club, had asked the high court to get involved The Supreme Court by a 5-4 vote has denied a request to halt construction of President Trump’s border wall over environmental concerns. </snip> A federal appeals court had ruled against the administration last month, but the justices, for now, have given another temporary victory to the administration. "The fight continues,” said Dror Ladin, a staff attorney with the ACLU’s National Security Project. “Every lower court to consider the question has ruled President Trump's border wall illegal, and the Supreme Court’s temporary order does not decide the case. We’ll be back before the Supreme Court soon to put a stop to Trump’s xenophobic border wall once and for all.” The four liberal justices dissented from Friday’s order. </snip> 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meaning that Trumpy trampled the Constitution to reappropriate the vast majority of those monies. (Construction in the immediate vicinity of a military installation is authorized by law.)

New wall is going up at a rate of 10 miles a week. ...and while 300 are almost completed, another 300 are under construction. The remaining mileage is still in planning.

ALF Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 Steve Bannon, three others charged with fraud in border wall fundraising campaign Federal prosecutors on Thursday charged Steve Bannon, President Donald Trump's former campaign adviser, and three others with defrauding donors of hundreds of thousands of dollars in a border wall fundraising campaign. Bannon has been arrested, according to a spokesman for the US attorney's office.
