Declare a National Emergency , declare marital law in all U.S.-Mex borderline counties . Remove all ‘foreign aid’ to El Salvador , Guatemala and Honduras . Penalize Mexico for facilitating trans-Mexico movement of illegal alien invasion groups .

The authority lies there, untouched, unguarded and revealed. All he has to do is to use it before further attempts are made to take it away. Sort of like Thor pulling a sword from a stone. Grab the hilt of that heavy sword, pull it out and be ready to wield it like the finely tempered weapon it really is.
The Hourglass has been turned upside down, and a period of waiting resumes once again.

It also forces the president to renew the declaration every year and authorizes Congress to disapprove of the declaration with a two-thirds vote in both houses. In other words, it mandated more transparency on the president relative to our prior history, but never imposed upon him legally enforceable...

Nancy and the minority rats in the Senate led by Schumer would lose ALL of their power to throw their temper tantrum. There is one reason they want an electronic border.

ALL PEOPLE HAVE TO DO IS CROSS THE BORDER and then claim asylum!

Rats and Rinos DO NOT WANT A PHYSICAL BARRIER! Trump should issue the emergency declaration and start building the physical concrete barrier!

I heard Shapiro and Nepalitano saying that the courts will never allow trump to declare an emergency to fund the wall.

I hope they’re wrong. I don’t know though.

9th circuit will shut him down immediately.

The only question is whether the Supreme Court will do anything about it. If Roberts goes with the liberals...game over.

Forget the National Emergencies Act.

Use the Immigration and Nationality Act.

8 U.S.C. §1182(f):

“Whenever the President finds that the entry of any aliens or of any class of aliens into the United States would be detrimental to the interests of the United States, he may by proclamation, and for such period as he shall deem necessary, suspend the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens as immigrants or nonimmigrants, or impose on the entry of aliens any restrictions he may deem to be appropriate.”

Trump has spent the last two years pretending he lacks the legal authority to stop the flow of illegal immigrants.

Not that it matters.

Even if he used this authority, he would instantly buckle after the first injunction from a Leftist judge.

“...It also forces the president to renew the declaration every year and authorizes Congress to disapprove of the declaration with a two-thirds vote in both houses. In other words, it mandated more transparency on the president relative to our prior history, but never imposed upon him legally enforceable conditions for determining whether the problem rises to the level of a national emergency....”

So, Nancy and Schumer, you guys got two-thirds of both the House and the Senate nailed down.

Man, we’re going to have to add Trump’s image to Mount Rushmore if he goes down this EFFECTIVE route and SAVES THE REPUBLICAN. The ‘RATS will be arguing over “whose idea was it to not give Trump his $3 million.”

The Congress Research group has indicated Trump has the authority and the courts can’t stop him.

Shapiro and Judge Nappy say a lot of things that are proven to be wrong.

Trump is trying to accomplish his goal through the legislative process, rather than appearing to be a Dictator.

They are both quasi lightweights

And have a degree of anti-Trump on their makeups

I think what Trump used that to close off immigration from some Islamic terrorist countries some time back

Of course the media and dems said he was being racist

I certainly hope Trump doesn’t get intimidated by any of those local judges because they have no right to decide what he can or cannot do

Authorize, fund, and construct the wall. Ignore all lower court rulings. Courts are there to interpret the law, not make it.
