House approves $1.6 billion bill for Trump's wall
 
Un...****ing...believable

Quote:
(CNN)The House voted Thursday to approve a spending bill with $1.6 billion to put toward a border wall along the US-Mexico border, part of a high-profile campaign pledge from President Donald Trump.

Despite Trump's pledge to make Mexico pay for the wall, the bill earmarks taxpayer money to construct a carrier along the southwest border. To avoid having those Republicans who oppose the measure vote on it directly House Republican leaders tucked it into a procedural measure that set the debate plan for the so-called "minibus" funding bill for several federal agencies.

The bill passed 235-192 mostly along party lines.

The wall funding was added to a measure that combined funding bills for the Pentagon, energy and water, legislative branch, military construction and Veterans Affairs.

The $658 billion defense spending legislation was $27 billion more than Trump's budget request, and would provide the military additional fighter jets, ships, helicopters and troops that the Pentagon had requested.
While the wall funding was the most contentious piece of the appropriations bill, it was just a small sliver of the spending package the House approved.

The defense spending bill also conforms to the House's budget outline, but it violates the Budget Control Act spending caps commonly known as sequestration. The Senate is not planning to give the military the same level of funding unless the caps are lifted, which would require congressional action.

Senate Democrats are demanding equal increases to domestic and military spending in any funding agreement, a debate that will heat up closer to the October 1 deadline for Congress to fund the government.

The promise of the Wall was probably one of the main things that got him elected, so it's only right it should happen. It's just a shame it's coming from the US taxpayers' purse.

Not that much really when you consider trident acquisition costs for Britain was almost 10 billion, was actually expecting it to cost a hell of a lot more

I'm just glad he's not forcing Mexico to pay for that wall like he said he would...

Not that he would be able to force them anyway :hehe::joker:

One of the Dumbest things from the King of Dumb.

Hopefully he'll be out of the White House before they hand the cash over.

Great to see that his sneaky 2am Reapeal vote on Obamacare last night failed completely when McCain gave it the Thums-Down. TrumpCare is DEAD (like his Presi'dunce'y).

Worst President (if you actually accept him as one!) in American History. One of the Worst people in the History of the World. Totally morally and mentally Bankrupt............soon to be also financially bankrupt.

There's a criminal 'running' (aka. ruining) the USA.

PLEASE explain what was untrue or incorrect ? When you have no answers then you'll probably just resort to :facepalm: again.

Granted some of the post was my personal opinion (which i'm allowed to express) but it's all based on factual evidence, and i used actual words.

The part about the 2am 'TrumpCare' vote is an actual event that is available to view on video (McCain giving his 'NO' vote and thumbs down) and the aftermath and Trump's response is clearly viewable in his deranged tweets.
All you need to do is look for it on Google which takes seconds.

Trump and the republicans are doing everything they can to repeal the healthcare act yet they don't mind wasting that much on a pointless wall?
