President Donald Trump is expected to direct funds towards construction of his border wall with Mexico, but is the construction feasible? Nathan Rousseau Smith (@fantasticmrnate) investigates.Buzz60
President Trump has promised to build his “great wall,” but it will take a lot of help to make it a reality.
Trump said he will lay out his plans Wednesday to build a border wall along the nation’s southwest border with Mexico, a campaign pledge that became so popular with his supporters that they regularly chanted “Build that wall” at rallies.
Now that he’s in the White House, Trump can make some moves on his own and possibly start construction, but finishing the wall will require a big assist from Congress.
Trump tweets ‘we will build the wall’
Here’s a look at some of the basics behind the border wall.

WHERE DOES IT STAND NOW?

The U.S. “border wall” is really a collection of walls, fences and other barriers that currently cover 652 miles of the 1,954-mile border with Mexico, according to the Government Accountability Office.
The wall is strongest along parts of the border that have large populations on both sides, such as San Diego and Tijuana. Each city runs right up to the border, so Department of Homeland Security officials have built up double and triple layers of fencing for 14 miles starting in the Pacific Ocean and heading east.
In other, more desolate parts of the border, there are only single fences or a variety of barriers, including iron vehicle barriers that people can easily walk past. Most areas have no fencing, but some are nearly impossible to cross, from the widest sections of the Rio Grande to deep canyons and treacherous mountains.

HOW MUCH WOULD IT COST TO FINISH?

Predictions have varied widely, but it will be expensive.
Trump took his own stab at the figure in February, telling MSNBC he could finish the wall for $8 billion. But most other estimates are far higher.
In 2015, Border Patrol officials said during a Senate hearing that the current 652 miles of wall had cost $2.3 billion. But that does not include increased costs for building across more difficult terrain or building the wall higher, as Trump has said he would do.
The Bernstein Research group conducted a study in July and estimated the total costs to be between $15 and $25 billion.

Our government is currently entwined in some of the most scandalous and criminal activity to ever be seen by Americans in our entire history, and it is disturbing to the max. The Trump Administration is facing a monster the likes of which we can only imagine, and they continue to fight daily to get to the bottom of it all to even begin fixing this country. Years and years of crimes and backdoor actions have built up to form a barrier that is hard to get all the way through in a short time, but there are many out there who are doing all they can independently to help Trump get through it all. Judge Jeanine Pirro is one such person, and she has no qualms about saying it loud and proud.According to Western Journal :Judge Jeanine had some specific words for the FBI and the Department of Justice when it comes to ridding the department of corruption — and she made sure they were understood. The judge claimed that there had been a “whole host of individuals” that were starkly...

Billy Graham’s Daughter Makes First Statement Since Her Father’s Death — She Has Warning for America

Image
The beloved evangelist Billy Graham passed away last Wednesday. One of his daughters believes that the United States is in trouble. This is huge. Evangelist Anne Graham Lotz, 69, believes that America is in a mess and that the Christian church needs a spiritual awakening. “I believe my father’s death is heaven’s shot across the bow. It’s time for the church to wake up. It’s time for the world to wake up because you’re not promised tomorrow. You need to decide now where you’re going to spend eternity.” According to our source, IJR, Lotz said that organized religion has hurt the society. The church has stopped teaching believers how to pray and how to read and study Scripture. “That’s why this nation is in a mess. We’ve lost our focus. We’ve lost our message,” Graham’s daughter asserted. “People go to church, but they’re not getting what they’re going for.” Lotz lamented over the division currently plaguing the country. In today’s climate, anger and pola...
