Non emergency


Sadly while we play and try to reach goals, Prez Trump just ended normal democracy in the U.S. The U.S. Constitution set out a plan. Congress appropriates money and the Prez is the leader in charge of spending it on the things Congress has directed.

Congress just funded the government through Sept. 30, 2019. Congress said 1.3 Billion for fencing, not walls on the Southern border. Trump said not enough so he plans to steal money from other sources to get 5 to 8 billion dollars for barriers.

No prior president declared an emergency and stole money appropriated for other uses by Congress, against the wishes of Congress. Prior emergencies imposed sanctions on foreign actors for human rights violations or stopping the flow of blood diamonds. No prior president forced a policy decision over turning a policy decision of Congress.

Trump has now become a king or emperor like Putin or Hitler.

What will America do? Congress will act to rescind the emergency declared. The Prez will veto. Can Congress override? We will see.

Lawsuits will seek nationwide injunctions. Odds favor one or more injunctions. We will see if the U.S. Supreme Court favors or flays Trump. It will be close.

Then the eminent domain cases will flourish. No wall will get built for years.

Meanwhile the illegal crossings decline to levels not seen in decades, thousands are detained, and drugs are smuggled in cars and trucks at ports of entry.

If you do not want a king to rule America remember to vote in November 2020.

Trump has stolen the Congressional power to appropriate money for projects, so we might as well close Congress. Trump has packed the courts with his toadies so close then too. Get rid of the media as they peddle lies and fake news. Leaves just Chairman Trump to tell us what to do and think.
