Judge Jeanine: Omnibus Bill a ‘Total Betrayal’ of Trump and His Voters

During her Saturday opening statement for Fox News Channel’s “Justice,” Jeanine Pirro reacted to Congress’ $1.3 trillion omnibus spending bill, calling it a “total betrayal” of President Donald Trump and the people who elected him.

“The omnibus bill the Republicans gave President Trump yesterday is a total betrayal of him and those who elected him,” Pirro began her opening statement.

Pirro went on to blame “inept, incompetent” GOP leaders like Speaker of the House Paul Ryan (R-WI) and Senate Majority leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) for the bill. She then asked voters in Kentucky and Wisconsin to vote the two out next election so Trump could carry out his agenda.

“This is not on President Trump,” she said. “This is on the leadership of the Republican Party — the very people this president should be able to count on. In truth, the president is surrounded by inept, incompetent warriors. And this bill is just that — total betrayal by the Senate and House leadership.”

Pirro continued, “The president and the people who voted for him have been betrayed by Speaker Paul Ryan and leader Mitch McConnell. And the people in Kentucky and Wisconsin need to make sure that these guys are defeated in the next election so this president can carry on the agenda that we elected him to do.”

Ann Coulter: Under the Constitution, Trump Doesn’t Need Congress to Build a Border Wall

Saturday on Fox News Channel’s “Justice,” conservative commentator Ann Coulter made the argument that President Donald Trump didn’t need Congress to have a go at building a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border, as he repeatedly promised during the 2016 presidential election campaign.

Coulter, frustrated by Trump’s decision to sign last week’s omnibus spending bill, said construction of such a wall was within his power as president given under the Constitution he was responsible for the country’s national defense.

“On the day after his inauguration, it’s his authority under the Constitution that cannot be taken away from him by any legislature, by any court — I’m quite confident the Supreme Court would uphold this — to defend our borders. I mean, he has — last war that had a declaration of war from Congress in it was World War II. And we engage in a lot of military actions around the world. I think it can be done right on our border for defense. Have the Seabees do it.”

Pirro replied by asking where Trump might get money to build the wall as “national defense.”

“The same place Reagan took the money to invade Grenada,” she said. The same place he took the money bomb Syria. He has money to spend on national defense. This is a much bigger problem of national defense. This our people being attacked with chemical warfare, not allegedly Syrians.
