The three sources familiar with the planning say the Trump administration is exploring what are known as LOGCAP contracts, or Logistics Civil Augmentation Program, which allow the Pentagon to quickly issue contracts to support logistics of any operation.
The administration could face legal challenges over using LOGCAP contracts to fund immigration enforcement. The sources familiar with the planning said Trump would use the Alien and Sedition Acts and his declaration of a national emergency at the U.S. southern border as justification for accessing the contracts.
Omg, could! They COULD face legal challenges?
WTF. I’ll believe it when I see it. We are fuked as a country. Certain states have the ability to stay sane, but overall the dismantling is going to take a long time to undo if at all.
Certain states have the ability to stay sane,
If Trump is able to normalize using military resources for domestic policy like he is attempting to do here, those states could lose that ability very suddenly
What is departmental spending but a big slush fund for Trump to use for what he wants?
IRS increase? Let’s use them to look for migrants!
Defense can’t pass an audit? Guess there’s money for deportations!
Why even have departments at this point?
Not getting those numbers you promised? Just make some shit up like usual! Nobody’s checking. Seriously.
Yeah, just say mission accomplished and everyone will forget about it.
