    Default Trump stealing money from the military budget

    The Trump administration is carrying out plans to raid $3.6 billion in military construction projects to build the border wall, further inflaming lawmakers who have accused President Donald Trump of illegally overriding Congress’ spending decisions.

    Defense Secretary Mark Esper informed congressional leaders on Tuesday of the cash grab from a total of 127 military projects. Roughly half the money will come from funds previously dedicated to upgrading military bases abroad and the other half in the United States.

    “It is a slap in the face to the members of the Armed Forces who serve our country that President Trump is willing to cannibalize already allocated military funding to boost his own ego and for a wall he promised Mexico would pay to build,” Schumer said in a statement.

    Military families are living in deplorable conditions with termites coming out of the light fixtures and lead in the water because Trump does not give a crap for anyone who is not him and his retarded ego. The sock-cucker hates the military and their families.

    GOP Senators Who Backed Trump's Emergency Declaration Lose Military Funding


    Who could have seen this coming when the president chose to divert defense money to build his border wall?


    Republicans who supported an emergency declaration on the U.S.-Mexico border are discovering the cost of standing with President Donald Trump: millions of dollars in federal funds diverted away from planned military construction projects in their states.

    Trump declared the emergency earlier this year to secure funds for a border wall after failing to persuade Congress to allocate money for its construction ― the same wall he initially promised Mexico would pay for. Only 12 Republican senators objected to the move in a Senate floor vote in March, with most of the GOP conference sticking with the president.



    Sen. Martha McSally (R-Ariz.), one of those who voted in support of the declaration, announced early Wednesday that the Trump administration was diverting $30 million in funds from an Army base in her state to construction of the wall ― even though she previously received assurances from an acting secretary of defense that her state would be spared.

    He can divert the funds as he sees fit. It's the law, so get over it.

    Dumb ass...….Enlighten us, just how does the Commander in Chief of all military forces steal the money that he has been legally allotted to spend as he (being the Commander) sees fit? Just what part of Commander in Chief has been amended from the Constitution? He could have a big PARTY in South America and use our TAX MONEY to hire whores....oops, already been done.

    FYI: The first duty as POTUS and Commander in Chief is to protect and to secure. Tell us...how is using ear marked funds to secure the nation at its southern border STEALING from a national security budget? Remember Feb. 2019? As Commander in Chief, Mr. Trump has every right to declare a national emergency at our southern Border. See: Section 301 of the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1631).

    Yeah...….

    Its working....the border is being secured and its driving you leftists bat shit crazy. ILLEGAL crossings at the border are down over the past few months, thanks to the fact MORE and MORE of TRUMP'S WALL is being constructed in spite of you open border ONE WORLD ORDER communists. That's the difference between a socialist state and a communist state. A socialist state has strong borders....a communist state demands OPEN BORDERS for the workers of the world.....just like Carl Marx mandated.

    It isn't his personal piggy bank so that the fool without a mandate can suck up to his base. And where is that check from Mexico?

    Yes.....it is his PERSONAL PIGGY BANK as COMMANDER IN CHIEF of the ARMED FORCES OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. Read the damn constitution. The money has already been approved in a budget drafted by Congress and singed by Mr. Trump. If you have a problem with Mr. Trump's military Strategies....fire his ass at the ballot box. Truth defeats PROPAGANDA....every time.

    Check from Mexico? Show us where Mr. Trump said Mexico would write a personal check to pay for the wall. THE US TAXPAYERS have already saved enough money by not having to feed, house, and provide health care for hundreds of thousands of ILLEGAL aliens. Hell, illegal crossings (down drastically due to the Wall Construction) and the SAVINGS to the US TAXPAYER just over the past 2 months is more than enough to build a wall at our southern and northern borders. THAT CAT has already been SKINNED....many times over. Who paid for the Mexican Army to guard our southern border to prevent the influx of south American CARAVANS from entering the US? Hint....it was not the US TAX PAYER.

    Its HIS BUDGET to rape. Fire his ass....if you don't like to be secure from Drug Cartels and Criminal GANGS......if you don't like to work for a living.....if you don't enjoy the extra money in your pocket due to tax cuts......if you don't enjoy Black unemployment being at its lowest....EVER in US History, and you don't think black lives matter......fire his ass if you don't like a Booming Economy.


    Truth: Prepare yourself....bend over and expect more such rapping events over the next 5 years. I suggest that you purchase KY lube by the gallon jugs.
