Gentleman I'm not Red but a student of air warfare. In my humble opinion security of our borders is a national security priority and that should be one of the top priorities of the Federal Budget so I'm ok with the administration moving funds from DOD. The KC 46 program is a disaster, the USS Ford is a disaster, the Army, Navy and Airforce keep wasting money on designing new uniforms and field gear. I saw the USAF spend $50,000 dollars on flowers for base housing in Alaska. The list can go on and on.
If I was the boss I'd be moving money too.To Error Is Human To Forgive Is Not SAC PolicyComment

m1ashooter: remember that when you endorse the move, you are doing two things at once:
1. favoring a specific funding priority (wall over fighter jets & ships in this case)
2. favoring a practice whereby the President ignores Congressional appropriations (budgets passed into law) to service his own priorities.
You can't have the one in this case without agreeing to the other. Most Constitutional Conservatives would see the long term danger of #2 as not being worth the short term payoff of #1. So any cheering, in my opinion is misplaced. To repeat, and not for the last time, our system of government is based upon officials using their powers in good faith with respect to the rules, and self-restraint.Comment

I'm not cheering. I'm stating I support moving priorities. Yes the President sends a budget and congress passes that budget we also know how congress pads that budget with bullxxxx line items like the bridge to etc. From what I read there are procedures in place to allow for a transfer of funds.https://www.politico.com/news/2020/0...er-wall-114891

H. Transfer of Funds to Other Departments and Agencies: Limitation. Title 10, United States Code, section 2215 provides that funds available for military functions of the Department of Defense may not be made available to any other department or agency of the Federal Government pursuant to a provision of law enacted after November 29, 1989, unless, not less than 30 days before such funds are made available to such other department or agency, the Secretary of Defense submits to the House National Security and Senate Armed Services Committees and the Committees on Appropriations of the Senate and House of Representatives a certification that making those funds available to such other department or agency is in the national security interest of the United States.To Error Is Human To Forgive Is Not SAC PolicyComment

So you're comfortable with National Security as a catch-all for policy choices? What happens when actions normally reserved for emergencies become commonplace? I'm speaking of this topic, but also the national economic emergency that requires cutting salary increases for Federal employees below what Congress appropriated. Emergency decrees as you know are favorite device in dictatorships. That Trump goes to them with increasing frequency does nothing to quell the criticism that within his breast beats a dictator's heart.Last edited by togor; 02-14-2020, 08:20.Comment

"...Are they calling it..." Should be called the London Bridge Line. As in "They all fall down." Typical quality work by unelected civil servants.
"...keep wasting money on designing new uniforms..." As with all peace time militarys, there are hordes and hordes of Light Colonels and Colonels without enough to do to keep them busy.
"...funds available for military functions..." That'd be the issue. The Donald taking funds from the military to build his silly wall. That fell down.Spelling and grammar count!Comment

You do like to talk,.Is there any issue you don't add your two cents to, ....I can't see any national military emergency happening at this time. Our military is the strongest in the world right now. Time to address the building of the wall. The country is not poor, it has lots of money to reasonably cover all it's functions.......The sky is not falling...So you're comfortable with National Security as a catch-all for policy choices?
