Obviously different departments have funds allotted to them but didn’t the SC recently declare that he couldn’t transfer money from Defense to pay for the border wall? Maybe it was a lower court. And I imagine the stimulus passed by congress had money for testing and all. The ironic thing is the pandemic really is an emergency, where the border wall is not yet he used term Emergency to shift money to the border wall. I guess it’s an emergency to rescue his campaign.
