Pentagon notifies Congress $1 billion authorized to begin new wall construction
CNN, Mar 25, 2019

The Pentagon notified Congress Monday night that it has authorized the transfer of $1 billion to begin new wall construction along the US-Mexico border, drawing immediate objections from Democratic lawmakers.

A Pentagon budget reprogramming notification sent to Capitol Hill on Monday and obtained by CNN indicates that up to $1 billion will go toward building 57 miles of fencing, improving roads and other measures on the southern border.

The Department of Defense authorized the Army Corp of Engineers to begin planning and construction for the project Monday night. The department will direct the funds toward 18-foot-high fencing along the Yuma and El Paso sections of the border, according to a letter acting Secretary of Defense Patrick Shanahan sent to Secretary of Homeland Security Kirstjen Nielsen.

No collusion, no obstruction; DOJ argues to strike down Obamacare, $1billion transfer for the wall, Army Corps of Engineers mobilized.  Liberal heads exploding exponentially.

All things considered --- a pretty damn good start to the week.
