Only a fraction of the tribute paid to Iran.
The whole omnibus spending habit should be made illegal. They do it on purpose. It's a scam. They should all be in prison for it (congress).
He's just one of those Deplorables that Hillary! ranted about...
The omnibus budgets are a back door way for the executive branch to control the purse, which is the duty of congress. It should be challenged in court, which also gets it’s budget funds the same way so I wouldn’t count on it.
CBC 2015 report regarding North American Union
CBC, that US and Canadian border agents can work within each other’s countries.
Will they do so within the context of a unified command? The details are yet unclear but when governmental agents work by treaty in each other’s country, it’s certainly a step toward a bureaucratic union.
The increased overlap between Mexico and the US is being driven by a reduction in immigration controls that is intended to allow more legal cross-border travel.
In Canada, where resistance to a merger with the US is even higher than in Mexico, bureaucratic unity drives the program. And it seems obviously to be a program. A series of treaties and joint accords are gradually binding the governments of the three countries into an ever-tighter embrace.
Here’s more:
Public Safety Minister Steven Blaney and Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson have signed a customs pre-clearance agreement for rail, land and sea travel that was years in the making. The arrangement would allow customs agents to work in each other’s countries, which means they could screen passengers away from the border and ease the choke points.
… Maryscott Greenwood of the Canadian American Business Council said the agreement will use modern technology to speed up things at the border. “It’s dramatic, it’s historic, it’s a big day in Canada-U.S. relations,” she said. The statement says the agreement applies to all modes of transport, which could include passenger vehicles. It also says customs agents will be allowed to carry firearms in each other’s countries.
We can see from Greenwood’s comments that this isn’t merely a border agreement designed to enhance efficiency. She is casting it in historical terms, especially given that agents will be “allowed to carry firearms in each other’s country.”
This notable event in Canada becomes even more noticeable when one realizes that a similar arrangement has just been announced in Mexico.
From the Albuquerque Journal: “Mexico set to allow armed U.S. customs officials within its borders.”
Here’s more:
A Mexican initiative to allow U.S. customs officials to carry weapons in the country could clear the way for customs inspections inside Mexico’s assembly plants, alleviating congestion at border crossings.
New Mexico’s border industries, as well as Mexico’s maquila assembly plants, have been pressing for years for a program that would allow customs inspectors to clear goods before they reach a port of entry.
One major obstacle has been Mexico’s ban prohibiting U.S. law enforcement from carrying their guns in Mexico. Mexico President Enrique Peña Nieto last month asked the country’s Congress to lift the long-standing taboo.
In a proposal sent to Mexico’s Senate, Peña Nieto underscored that Mexico’s economy depends in a large part on the competitiveness of its border and proposed allowing foreign governments’ customs inspectors to work alongside the country’s own.
I DON’T know where this money is coming from...I wished I knew, it has to be coming out of some kind of pay off or fund or something...
This POS will give money for a wall on the other border of Mexico, but won’t build a wall on America/Mexico border to keep killing, raping, drug running illegal immigrants out of our Country...
Unbelievable...
Of course the North American Union integrating Canada, the USA and Mexico along with a corresponding Monetary Union common currency is all a crazy conspiracy theory...

Description
It is generally argued that the set of underlying forces behind North America’s economic integration will evolve over time. The North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) clearly sped up two key interactions: trade and investment (Reyes-Heroles 2004: 395). One of the effects of such greaterinvolvement of market actors (especially the¿ nancial and banking sectors) in each other’s countries is that NAFTA has led to a broader range of cross-border activities and transactions than before it was adopted (Lucio 1999: 194).

Imagine your household getting one paycheck each year regardless of need for single line expenditures? Take from the funds used to pay for cars because your cars are paid for now. Take the funds from your kids college fund because they are no longer in college. Take from the facility budget because you purchased the building outright four years ago.
You get the picture. I doubt a single government agency still presents a budget to fund other than what they spent last year plus 20%!!!! They then get the same amount plus 10%, and claim their budget was reduced 10% and never tip the lie they are working.
Let’s hope the wall Obama is funding with our tax money is modular and can be easily relocated in sections?
Who authorized this?
where is the money coming from?
when will this nightmare end?
Thanks for the ping.
What a complete loser on his last days in office.
On top of everything else.
So where does the money come from?
He’s using his own money of course...
‘scuse me while I pick myself up, I just fell out of my chair laughing...
