One of a number of ways POTUS can build the WALL
‘U.S. Code Title 10. ARMED FORCES Subtitle A. General Military Law Part I. ORGANIZATION AND GENERAL MILITARY POWERS Chapter 15. MILITARY SUPPORT FOR CIVILIAN LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES Section 284. Support for counterdrug activities and activities to counter transnational organized crime…’

A lot of posts about it.
BUT found this interesting, since the House Joint Resolution 28 lasts just 21 days / three weeks… February 15, 2019
AND HJRes 31 are the people that will negotiate over the next 21 days (this is a big hint)
‘HOUSE JOINT RESOLUTION, 31, MAKING FURTHER CONTINUING APPROPRIATIONS FOR THE DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY FOR FISCAL YEAR 2019, AND FOR OTHER PURPOSES.’ other purposes WTF?
‘SENATORS SHELBY, CAPITO, BLUNT, LEAHY, DURBIN AND TESTER’. were selected by the Senate…
No names yet for the House…
’10 U.S. Code § 284…
(h) Congressional Notification.—
(1)In general.—Not less than 15 days before providing support for an activity under subsection (a), the Secretary of Defense shall submit to the appropriate committees of Congress a written and electronic notice of the following:
(i)Definitions.—In this section:
(1) The term “appropriate committees of Congress” means—
(A) the Committee on Armed Services, the Committee on Appropriations, and the Committee on Foreign Affairs of the House of Representatives; and
(B) the Committee on Armed Services, the Committee on Appropriations, and the Committee on Foreign Relations of the Senate.’
So did Congress receive notification on Friday Jan 25, 2019 on 10 U.S. Code § 284, that resulted is the so called temporaty agreement?
I do not know but an astute CNN reporter Jim Acosta had some interesting observations right after the Rose Garden POTUS speech
