Clearest sign that @realDonaldTrump’s #FakeTrumpEmergency is not legitimate? The President himself says he didn’t need to declare a national emergency – it’s just a faster way to force taxpayers to foot the bill after Congress wouldn’t let him have his way. pic.twitter.com/igvnNk128J

Question for the President from US Constitution, Art. I sec. 9:

“No Money shall be drawn from the Treasury, but in Consequence of Appropriations made by Law.”

This is lunacy. Theresa May is insisting to the EU that her deal can still pass – as long as the backstop changes. If we are generous and assume this is not incompetency but rather strategic time wasting. Anyone who enables her, in any form, is complicit.https://t.co/a57h0VzYKj
