Shouldn’t they use the money already in place (1.3b or so) first and shift money when there’s not enough?
Impeach him. Charge: Spending money outside of authorized appropriations. Then get the miltitary to come up an testify that they were only authorized to spend money in the budget. I think hearings with little kids getting no schools on military bases, no new heatlh care facilities, etc. for this wall ought to make Republicans a little nervous.
The gods saw that Americans don’t read the Constitution any more and so they sent us Trump.
If Obama…
So this also serves the purpose of establishing that Trump can ignore appropriations.
The DOJ insists that any reallocated funds will not negatively affect military readiness.
Is that DOJ or DOD? If it’s the DOJ do they have any standing or understanding?

Another short fingered vulgarian.
Sometimes you have to step back and take it all in to see where we are. Our military is taking money meant for our strategic defenses to pay for Trump’s idiotic wall. It’s Strangelove on its head: the military no longer able to withstand the rampant insanity of the civilian leadership.
ETA: Not exactly OT: Here’s our stable genius president opining on important matters of the day in an entirely rational manner…
An eight year olds portrayal of what a president sounds like .
Well…he ignores everything else from the House.
DOD. (TPM made a mistake. @kate_riga )
Anyhow, stepping back a little: If an administration were telling us out of the blue that less money would be spent paying for more nuclear missiles and more useless military action abroad, we might think that was a good thing …
“The DOJ insists that any reallocated funds will not negatively affect military readiness.”
So, DOD didn’t need that money. I have to wonder what other appropriations they don’t need.
What Fat Nixon fails to acknowledge is that HE didn’t win in Boston, or its environs. Nonetheless this is a not so subtle dig at Cora.
So when s surveillance plane goes down because of deferred maintenance, we’ll know who’s to blame.
Obama, natch.
Start Impeachment.
He’s taking credit for the Red Sox winning? Seriously? At 4:30 this morning? Really?
He is off his meds at a minimum. That we are so enured to this is dangerous. This type of stuff really scares me.
