Pelosi complains but her party voted to build the wall and reprogram military funds for it

Another brick in the wall as Supreme Court upholds Trump reprogramming funds for southern border wall. Democrats whine after they voted for it.

Brick by brick, figuratively, with a serious assist from the Supreme Court ruling that reprogramming $2.5 billion of counter-narcotics monies may be used towards the southern border wall, Donald Trump is fulfilling his promise to get the wall built. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi complained on Twitter, “This evening’s Supreme Court ruling allowing @realDonaldTrump to steal military funds…” Here’s the best part: Democrats voted for all of it. Specifically, the National Defense Authorization Act of 2019, the bill which allowed the $2.5 billion for counter-narcotics barriers to be built, passed with 185 Democrats voting in the affirmative in the House. Every Democrat except for Sen. Bernie Sanders voted for it in the Senate. Similar overwhelming Democratic majorities voted for another $6.1 billion for the wall and another $4.5 billion to address the humanitarian crisis on the border the Trump administration requested. How will Dems in 2020 say they want to tear down the wall they voted for?
