Most likely it will wind up in the courts, probably up to the Supreme Court. 4 to 4 with Roberts being the final say.

From my understanding of what Fox News is reporting, about 4 billion of the total 8 billion being claimed will be tied up in the courts. Fox News is
usually correct too 😉

A Strange Presentation
How about Donald's odd "Sing-Song" voice when describing the course of the upcoming court battle ?
That aside, it's going to be interesting to see how those GOP Senators who expressed the opinion that an Emergency Declaration was
unwarranted and an abuse of presidential authority actually vote on the Joint Resolution that will pass the House.
The betting is that they will NOT put their vote where their mouth is.

like any other religion or cult - once you are in, any of your leader's words are true. It creates a wonderful safe haven - whatever people around you
say will not bother you any longer.

Exactly. That's why I'm not religious or political.
Gives you the ability to call a spade a spade w/o selling your soul.

"Congress has the authority to rescind the national emergency declaration of Trump with a vote of both chambers. The legislative branch should do so.
If Congress cannot muster the votes, however, a federal judge is unlikely to do so. Simply put, the courts were not created to protect Congress from
itself. Congress has been heading to hell for decades, and it is a bit late to complain about the destination."

Congress Courting Relief
It's a tossup which way the Supreme court may go regarding the Emergency power, but the odds would favor the
Fuhrer. Congress has nobody to blame other than a previous Congress for writing a badly-worded law. The upcoming Joint-Resolution
can be vetoed by Mr. Orange so its sole value is to force the GOP senators to go on record.
The litigation most likely to deter the Dear Leader will involve efforts to move the appropriated funds from other targets, but DCDT
may even win there. Then, the Eminent Domain battles are likely to go on for many years given the recent past history.
Which doesn't matter, of course.
The MAGATMan objective is simply to wage the war into 2020 and satisfy his cult.

He may be rude and crude but Trump gets things done with America being his top priority and not wondering if the world approves. We now export energy
once again and unemployment is at the lowest levels in our time if not all time.
Maybe cut the guy some slack because he is doing exactly what he said he would. How refreshing. |

For those who think the Prez is doing a great job (Bub, DK, other nut jobs here) at least one former supporter thinks you're wrong. Who you gonna
believe? Ann or the nut jobs? (Hint: Ann is smarter and in the loop. Nut jobs watch Hannity and Fox Fake News and believe what they are
hearing.)
''No, the goal of a national emergency is for Trump to scam the stupidest people in his base for 2 more years," she tweeted early Friday morning. "The
goal is to get Trump's stupidest voters to say "HE'S FIGHTING!" No he's not. If he signs this bill, it's over."

Ann Coulter after Trump's order: ‘The only national emergency is that our president is an idiot’
One of the few times I agreed with Ann coulter.
Woke!
“...ask not what your country can do for you – ask what you can do for your country.” “My fellow citizens of the world: ask not what America
will do for you, but what together we can do for the freedom of man.”

Donald getting Pussy-Whipped
Seeing the Lefties embrace Acid Annie in her Dueling Dickery Dominance over DT is fairly funny.
Schoolyard insults aside, the essence of her criticism is that the Kult-Leader isn't standing firm in the White Fight to "Ban the
Brown Bums from our Towns" Battle.

I think I heard that life on earth will cease to exist in 10 years.... 30 years ago. And you know what, we are still here living a pretty comfortable
life. Too many chicken little's and the sky is falling syndrome.

Hallelujah, Amen and .................. W-T-F ?
Slightly slipping numbers show that even (some of) the Christians in the Cult apparently have limits to their blind faith in the
Divinity of Donald.
Although that's a group he has a pretty firm hold on. Donald as the latter-day JC may seem pretty odd to rational minds, but I'm beyond
counting how many times that I've heard (in various wordings) "HE has been sent by God to SAVE us" or that "HE is a part of
God's PLAN".
As was Adolf ?
As I've said to a few (one of whom doesn't talk to me, anymore) "OK, I get it that God works in mysterious ways, but TRUMP ................ WTF ?"

Dubya Bush was quoted as saying, "I am driven with a mission from God. God would tell me, `George, go and fight these terrorists in Afghanistan'. And
I did. And then God would tell me 'George, go and end the tyranny in Iraq'. And I did."
If God is directing the political cluster flock playing out, lets get it on. Bring everything to a screeching halt and start again. Burn it down
and rebuild it.
Term limits.
