        That’s the point. Its a massive money laundering scheme. They offered to fully fund it and he threw a tantrum bc funding was budgeted out over time—like w everything. He wanted all the $ right away. Media has dropped the ball on calling out the obvious here.

        Thank you! I have been thinking this wall scam is a huge cronyism/laundering plan from the get go. We have seen how gov contracting goes under Trump, plus he may have loans to RU due now, vs. long term pay out.

        BINGO. He wants that $$$ WAY too much. He can just lie to his cult about the stupid thing being built. Eff, he could tell them it IS built. He owes big rubles to scary Russian mob types. This report on ‘why’ billions could be wasted SCREAMS precisely what he’s up to...

        @chrislhayes @Lawrence I hope media doesn’t ignore this. Current word is that they will somehow throw enough billions at him to keep him from ‘shutting down the government.’

        So the Department of Homeland Security didn’t and doesn’t plan to do a cost analysis for the border wall. Kirstjen Nielsen is demonstrating her perpetual incompetence. Targeting and detaining asylum refugee families is consuming the DHS budget with no end in sight.

        That's the plan. After watching the debacles created by companies hired by this administration for Puerto Rico I have no doubt grafting is in place and the wall is not the real objective

        To be fair to the press, without facts they are limited in what they can say.
