    Well.
    I never said we have no problem.

    February crossing apprehensions? It was less than an average month in 1984. Or 2004. Or 2014.

    Problem, yes.
    Emergency?
    No.

    Trump's manufactured emergency.
    Fortifying his nads and little more.

    So, so much political mediated hyperbole.

    I know these people and this is a common occurrence. Just one family, imagine how many others deal with the same.

    Wetbacks is in reference to an action, the act of those crossing the river (in actuality or metaphorically) illegally to gain entry into our country. It does not refer to a specific race, and in fact can and has included many races. It's in reference to a criminal or any involved in such criminal activity. So not sure how it should be considered a racial slur. Not that it isn't considered such as it is by obviously you and multitudes of the PC crowd/media/leftists. But like most espoused by same, just another error.

    Canadians in this country illegally are commonly called "ice backs" and whether you know or not there are a lot of those.

    Mmm...yeah...I see national healthcare in our future under the same clause.

    Separation if powers, it was nice knowing you.
    Possibly, however, this money has already been appropriated by Congress—albeit for certain other things. But really, it’s small potatoes budget-wise—6 billion is a piddling amount. Whereas if a future president attempted to force single-payer and push folks away from private healthcare, that President would not so conveniently find the sums of money already appropriated from which to raid. So, while possible to declare a national healthcare emergency, I see no parallel to the instant situation. Because 90 trillion dollars.

    So, basically, I'm calling bullshît. In 1976, Congress specifically ceded a certain amount of their authority to the President in the National Emergencies Act. Every President has used it, and the sky has not fallen. SCOTUS even examined the Act, and strengthened the President's hand in the matter by trimming away a portion of Congress' ability to override the President in such matters. So, given that, the Court grants even greater deference to the Executive due to the fact that this is not a clean slate piece of legislation.

    The Separation of Powers is doing just fine. The sky is not falling. And you can still save hundreds of dollars on car insurance by switching to Geico . . .


    unless, of course, you go with USAA and save even MORE.

    Please cite where he can use extra constitutional means to do so.
    Hyperbole much? Not to mention outright falsehood, counsellor. Acting under the authority granted him by the National Emergencies Act of 1976 does NOT constitute the use of "extra-constitutional means". Congress has ceded a part of its authority and the Supreme Court has already examined that Act and not found it to be unconstitutional.
