Veteran Who Started GoFundMe To Build The Wall Says A Big Announcement Is Coming Next Week

[strollingbones]

seems the 1986 immigration reform act was who?

 

[candycorn]

$18 million and the Dims are making loud noises that he can’t use that money to build the border wall.


The problem is donating the money to the federal government. It will go into the General Fund unless a special fund is established for this.


It should be remembered that the Washington Monument was built with private funds.


And, what if the money is used to build barriers on private land with the owner’s permission?

Is he going to rescind his 'if we don't meet our goal, we're going to refund all the money' pledge?

He's modified it to say that if you want a refund, you'll get one (no word on who keeps the interest).... but according to him "alot of people" said donate it to charity. Yeah...okay.
He continues on that you'll have the choice of the refund or donating it to a charity "we" agree on. No word on who "we" are.

I think the "major announcement" will not be anything to do with the disposition of the money...it will be something on the administrative end; one thing is for sure. The net takeaway is more time on television for him. He loves seeing himself on TV and telling you he is going to be on there.

The beauty of this is, if it goes to a general government, Trump can use it as he pleases. He can have a big party for veterans, help any number of charities of people in need, address immigration/border problems etc.

Trump should invite this man to the WhiteHouse and milk it politically. This is a fight for the soul of America, photo ops, shameless plugs and and the help the President can receive, he should receive.

If not, the next president will be a Commie Sympathizer, and the West doesn't need this.

But where do you get that from? Trump can't use that money as he pleases... it has to be appropriated by Congress if it goes in to the general funds, the Treasury.

Wrong!
It would be considered non-allocated funds and would be available to the Chief Executive as he sees fit.

Do a bit of searching for how government finances work before you make comments like that.

$18 million only build's 2/3's of a mile of wall...

the wall costs $25 million a mile... at the low end of estimates....

Though $18 million could not build a single full mile of wall, I would not turn it down.... every little bit helps!

It doesn't have to be the fullblown wall. It can be just about any form of effective barrier of which there are dozens of forms that would be effective.

Most illegals are not sneaking across the border. The wall would only be a monument to stupidity and fear of brown people.

Report: Visa Overstays More Common Than Illegal Border Entries; Mexicans The Most Likely to Overstay
Visa overstays outnumber illegal border crossings; trend likely to continue

You Snowflakes will post just about anything to show your opposition to defending this country from the current invasion of ILLEGAL ALIENS!

A bill has been introduced in congress to handle how the money is to be used, but I can't see it being acted upon with Democrats about to take over the House.

H.R.7207 - 115th Congress (2017-2018): To allow the Secretary of the Treasury to accept public donations to fund the construction of a barrier on the border between the United States and Mexico and for other purposes.

Introduced in House (11/30/2018)
This bill authorizes the Department of the Treasury to accept gifts of money for constructing or maintaining a wall on the U.S. and Mexico border. Treasury shall establish a trust fund and website for that purpose.

This is perfect for the GOP if the Democrats won't act on it. Politicians will scream, "even when Americans themselves show their support for the wall, to such an extent that they donate their own hard earned money, they won't work on behalf of the People" They can even take a dig, "this is the first time we have seen some in government reject money from Americans..."

This will be a hard fought two years. If Trump and the GOP want to be in power another six, they have to call it all out. The global socialist and some in Western governments who are doing their bidding, cannot be allowed to harm the America, and destroy the 250 years of capitalism and individual liberty.

If the Democrat congress DARES STEAL this money/gift, there will be hell to pay for the Dems.

In order to "steal" the funds, the House would have to pass a bill and send it to the Senate. Dead on arrival!

I love the stupid. Thanks dummies

Oh. There will be no wall....we....um.....barrier....uh....fence built with this money. Dupes.

President Trump should’ve shown the nation how serious he was for the wall by donating a massive amount to the fund.

You`re talking the same kind of shit as the Pittsburgh synagogue shooter. He too was a mentally ill racist chicken shit that actually believes the stupid shit coming out of the president`s lying mouth. People that want to mow our lawns and cook tacos are not invaders. Yes, they committed a misdemeanor by entering illegally. BFD.

THAT is what the Democrats have been saying and have stood for ALL ALONG!

The president was the one fighting it all along, until the past month!

Still doesn't change the fact that a wall or fence or or lovely steel slats, costs 25 million dollars, PER MILE built.

And it would be GOFUNDME FRAUD if the president used the gofundme funds for a party in the oval office instead of using it towards a wall, don't ya think? He has been known as a fraudster in his private life, with all of his scams like Trump University and his so call Trump foundation Charity and his Tax evasion schemes..... so it would not surprise me if he defrauded the American people with the wall money they donated to help, while you guys cheer him on....

Well if money that was raised by citizens for a specific reason, doesn't get used for that reason. Well the democrats who use it for something different could suffer at election time.

OH FOR GOODNESS SAKE!

The democrats ARE NOT going to use it for something else... why would they? All along the Democrats have supported and funded border security...

It's the idiot in the oval office that insisted he only cared about and wanted and would have Mexico pay for ... a BIG BEAUTIFUL solid CONCRETE WALL across the ENTIRE southern border! duh

If the wall doesn't get built, the democrats will pay for it. California is a shithole and liberals want the rest of the United States to look the same.
