Trump to Sign Spending Deal and Declare a national Emergency at the Southern Border
President Trump is expected to sign a border security deal funding the government and immediately after that he will declare a national emergency and allocate $8 billion toward building a barrier on our southern border.
“Right after he puts the pen to paper [on the budget deal],” Bill reported on Wednesday’s No Spin News, “he's going to declare a state of emergency on the southern border… giving him the authority of taking funds from Homeland Security and other places to build whatever he wants to build. So it's going to be simultaneous.“
“Sounds like a decent strategy to me keep the government open, because closing the government hurts the economy.” Bill continued. “ It'll be good for four or five days on the Hate Trump networks, the conservatives, I think will like it, pro-Trump people will like it, then will be court challenges. The America we live in.”

Huge loss for Governor Cuomo, who helped structure the deal. “A small group of politicians put their own narrow political interests above their community — which poll after poll showed overwhelmingly supported bringing Amazon to Long Island City — the state’s economic future and the best interests of the people of this state,” Cuomo said in a statement.
