特朗普建墙的钱,有了

小亮亮 环球时报GlobalTimes 2019-08-13

心愿达成?


当地时间周五,美国最高法院作出判决,允许特朗普政府从国防部经费中拨款25亿美元,用于在加州、亚利桑那州和新墨西哥州修建边境墙。



The Supreme Court sided with the Trump administration on Friday in lifting a freeze backed by a lower court that had halted plans to use $2.5 billion in Pentagon funds for border wall construction.


当地时间周五,美国最高法院同意特朗普政府从国防部经费中拨款25亿美元用于修建边境墙。这笔资金曾被一个下级法院冻结。

特朗普得知这一判决后,第一时间发推回应:



Wow! Big VICTORY on the Wall. The United States Supreme Court overturns lower court injunction, allows Southern Border Wall to proceed. Big WIN for Border Security and the Rule of Law!


“哇!修墙计划大获成功!美国最高法院推翻了下级法院的裁决,让南部边境墙项目得以继续。这是边境安全和法治取得重大胜利!”

The $2.5 billion had been shifted from various programs including personnel and recruiting, Minuteman III and air launch cruise missiles, E-3 aircraft upgrades and the Afghan security forces training fund. The money was moved into a Defense Department counter-drug account that is authorized to spend money on the construction of border barriers.


据悉,这25亿美元是从国防部不同项目的经费中抽调出来的。包括人员招募,民兵3洲际导弹和空中发射的巡航导弹,E-3预警机的升级,和阿富汗安全部队培训等项目。这笔钱已经被转入国防部的一个反毒品账户中,用于边境屏障建设。

判决结果出炉后,反对为隔离墙提供资金的美国公民自由联盟(ACLU)发誓继续战斗。


"Border communities, the environment, and our Constitution's separation of powers will be permanently harmed should Trump get away with pillaging military funds for a xenophobic border wall Congress denied," said Dror Ladin, a staff attorney with the ACLU's National Security Project. 


“如果特朗普得以这样明目张胆地掠夺军费开支,不经国会同意就修建一个‘仇外’的边境墙,我们的边境社区,环境和宪法规定的三权分立精神都会受到永久损害。”美国公民自治联盟国家安全项目的律师Dror Ladin说。

修筑美墨边境墙是特朗普在2016年大选期间所作的重要承诺之一。围绕边境墙资金的争斗引发了美国历史上最长时间的政府关门


美国政府真关门了

美国政府关门18天,“局座”召忠:还停在秦始皇时代?

美国政府关门进入第29天,前总统小布什都当起了“外卖员”!

At stake is billions of dollars in funding that would allow Trump to make progress on a major 2016 campaign promise heading into his race for a second term.


这数十亿的美金,将决定特朗普是否能兑现2016年的竞选承诺,也将影响到他的连任。


Trump declared a national emergency after losing a funding fight with the Democrat-led House that resulted in a 35-day government shutdown. Congress agreed to spend nearly $1.4 billion on barriers in Texas' Rio Grande Valley, the busiest corridor for illegal crossings, an amount well below the $5.7 billion the president had sought.


边境墙资金引发了特朗普和民主党领导的众议院的拉锯战,导致美国政府关门35天。最终,国会同意拨款近14亿美元,在德克萨斯州里奥格兰德河谷修建屏障,这里是最繁忙的非法越境通道,但是拨款远远低于总统要求的57亿美元。


Trump grudgingly accepted the money but declared the emergency in order to tap up to $8.1 billion for wall construction. That amount includes $3.6 billion from military construction funds, $2.5 billion from Defense Department counterdrug activities and $600 million from the Treasury Department's asset forfeiture fund.


特朗普勉强接受了这笔钱,但宣布了“国家紧急状态”,以求获得建墙的81亿美元。这笔款项包括来自军事建设基金的36亿美元,国防部反毒品活动的25亿美元和来自财政部资产没收基金的6亿美元。

有钱建墙了,一些特朗普的支持者很开心地表示:



我真的高兴得手舞足蹈。我们终于有一个把美国利益放在首位的总统了。我保证,明年什么事儿也不干,就给你拉选票连任。


但是,也有网友挖出了特朗普当时竞选的承诺。他好像不是这么说的?!


特朗普:墨西哥将付修墙的费用。


突发:美国最高法院宣布,修筑边境墙费用将由美国纳税人,而不是墨西哥买单……
