Isn't declaring a national emergency the same as declaring martial law?

Exactly. Checks and balances went out the window.

 

Colonel Oliver North got asked to run a private army after one president found himself up against the wishes of Congress. I wonder who the "Oliver North of Trump's Wall" will be.
Maybe the brother of an education secretary who lives in Dubai?

Hello Erik, what ya been up to lately?

 

In 2021 the Dem president will announce a SoE stating that the GOP has become a Russian front organization in America.

 

Basically democrats are working against the problem which is dramatic and real. Why have they done a 180 on border security?

 

Evidently you are not aware the Congress makes the law and have given Presidents the statutory authority to secure the borders.

 

Does the Constitution say anything about “the democrats” or does it talk about Congress?

 

In my state,

Are you scared?

 

I guess some people are afraid that an illegal alien is going to cross the border to fondle milky white breasts.

 

That is like statutory rape, imo.

 

Aaah, I see your TDS won't allow a comparison.

 

Sure give ~ $4B to the world’s leading sponsor of terror. What could go wrong ??? That money was not Iran’s.

 

In his rambling irrational speech today our clueless leader admitted on more than one occasion that this was not necessary or an emergency just his way of usurping constitutional rights granted to congress to fund his IDIOTS WALL.

 

Oh yeah the economy is horrible under Trump. That's the ticket.

 

The design is what the border patrol wants to be able to see through it. It simple to add screening if necessary.

So you have 4 examples spanning 8 years for barriers inferior to what is proposed ??

 

That is a good and well founded point. They commit crimes at 3 time the rate of citizens.

"The first report (GAO-05-337R) found that criminal aliens (both legal and illegal) make up 27 percent of all federal prisoners. Yet according to the Center for Immigration Studies, non-citizens are only about nine percent of the nation’s adult population. Thus, judging by the numbers in federal prisons alone, non-citizens commit federal crimes at three times the rate of citizens.

The findings in the second report (GAO-05-646R) are even more disturbing. This report looked at the criminal histories of 55,322 aliens that “entered the country illegally and were still illegally in the country at the time of their incarceration in federal or state prison or local jail during fiscal year 2003.” Those 55,322 illegal aliens had been arrested 459,614 times, an average of 8.3 arrests per illegal alien, and had committed almost 700,000 criminal offenses, an average of roughly 12.7 offenses per illegal alien."

 

Which had been confiscated. This was not Iran’s money nor was it Obama’s to illegally give to Iran.

 

None of it is true. Where do you get this BS from.

 

It’s certainly great for billionaires.

 

No cite?

 

Translation: people have more money than me not fair.

 

LOL You asked "Got any examples of that actually happening" and then were given 5 from just one town in Arizona and they were just the ones caught. Or are you going to say that they were all caught? And what difference does the design of a barrier make when you're throwing drugs over the barrier - perhaps the latest design is going to have a guided laser system to intercept any objects flying over the barrier

 

There was ~ $2B in cash and ~ $6B in cash conversion into US dollars. It’s actually much more than $4B.

 

No, it was very plain in its language. Trump’s economy is great for billionaires.

 

You are actually making the case for a wall - a very tall one.
