First priority of the 'national emergency' - order steel from his Russian steel pals.

Not plans.
Not construction contracts.

Spend the money first for steel.

All that taxpayer money in sight.

Then get more money for the little details like actual construction.

1. I'd be shocked if the Deripaska (defective) steel isn't already ordered & loaded up.

drumpf has been planning this for a long time, it's one of his #1 orders from his master - PUtin. He doesn't care if he build a wall, it's just ordering the steel from Russia that is important to Russia and therefore to him.

2. does anyone have links to background material on this deal?

I intend to lobby reporters to start investigating this as a HEIST of taxpayer dollars that will benefit TRUMP himself.

5. Here's a link...we need reporters and Congress investigating....Why should our taxpayers money go

to Russians?

this is a heist of epic proportions in broad daylight...

4. As was reported earlier in the day,

our Media is incapable of reporting on Complex Stories. Remember,it is all about access too and what will be the topic at the Cocktail Bar at Trump Hotel down the street.

6. Makes sense the wall promise wasn't just to his rabid fans...

... but also his Russian backers.

8. I know you're having fun but this is still scuttlebutt, not fact, and too many are lapping it up.

Try Creative Speculation. If it pans out, please let us know.

9. Trumps are building contractors. Who gets the contracts needs to be probed.
