The current US Government Shutdown has entered its 25th Day as President Trump threatens to declare a national emergency which will enable him to bypass the Congress in order to obtain funds for his promised border wall.

Amid it all, one expected that the Congress would have threatened POTUS back with impeachment in a mature democracy like the US. But that has not happened, and you may be wondering why.

Just yesterday, a document surfaced on the American cyber space that may have the answer. The document seems to reveal that President Trump is in fact pursuing an agenda backed by an act of Congress but which has suffered from corrupt cover-ups under past presidents Bush and Obama. See the document. What do you think about it? $50 billion? Could this also happen in the US? lalasticlala mynd44 please come oh!

I never heard of Secure Fence Act. I even thought the idea of a border wall is exclusively Trump's. It actually sounds like a lie. But it can also be true.

On October 26, 2006, U.S. President George W. Bush signed the Secure Fence Act of 2006 (Pub.L. 109–367) into law stating, "This bill will help protect the American people. This bill will make our borders more secure. It is an important step toward immigration reform."

The bill was introduced on September 13, 2006, by Congressman Peter T. King, Republican of New York. In the House of Representatives, the Fence Act passed 283–138 on September 14, 2006. On September 29, 2006, the Fence Act passed in the Senate 80–19.

In 2006, at the time it was passed, George W. Bush's White House touted the fence as "an important step toward immigration reform." The White House Office of the Press Secretary stated that the Act "Authorizes the construction of hundreds of miles of additional fencing along our Southern border; Authorizes more vehicle barriers, checkpoints, and lighting to help prevent people from entering our country illegally; Authorizes the Department of Homeland Security to increase the use of advanced technology like cameras, satellites, and unmanned aerial vehicles to reinforce our infrastructure at the border."

Although the 2006 law authorized construction of a fence, Congress initially did not fully appropriate funds for it (see authorization-appropriation process). "Congress put aside $1.4 billion for the fence, but the whole cost, including maintenance, was pegged at $50 billion over 25 years, according to analyses at the time."

A 2017 GAO report noted: "According to CBP, from fiscal year 2007 through 2015, it spent approximately $2.3 billion to deploy border fencing along the southwest border, and CBP will need to spend a substantial amount to sustain these investments over their lifetimes. CBP did not provide a current life-cycle costs estimate to maintain pedestrian and vehicle fencing, however, in 2009 CBP estimated that maintaining fencing would cost more than $1 billion over 20 years."
