Sen. Grassley: The president is 'a little bit wrong' on national emergency
“Where he is a little bit wrong (lied - again) and brought on a problem that he didn't have to bring on himself is about half of the money of the...$8 billion, he already has authority to transfer. So then why did he go to national emergency for another $4 billion?
I don't know why. Maybe just he wants to show the American people he's committed to what he stands for. But he brought on court cases that he wouldn't have to have,” said Grassley.

Yes. Former what ?
Answer: "former national security officials." I guess the use of the word former would imply that they were national security officials before doing whatever it is that they do now.
I know this might be shocking, but if a leader wants to do something stupid, one way it might be prevented is for all the people that have the best understanding of why its stupid (or at least a waste), to explain it to the rest of us.
Yeah, yeah, I know that's not the world we live in, and it's not the kind of world we should be fighting to have.
You did say "Former" right?

There has been bipartisan building of walls along the border, but not making it some kind of big political issue that the republitards want to make it.
"Darrr, me say the democrats were for the wall before they were against the wall. "
No they weren't. Sure they've supported ongoing huge increases in "wall" and fences and border security in general, that has coincided with massive decreases in illegal immigration by Mexicans coming in that way.
But just becasue they don't support a 5 billion dollar down payment on an additional 25 billion dollar wall doesn't mean they are hypocrites.
