A Wall for Jordan

Timothy Birdnow

The latest federal budget funds border wall construction - in the Middle East. Nothing but crumbs here.

From Breitbart:

The spending bill, which is set to pass the Senate, provides Jordan with more than $7.3 billion to be used to help the country "enhance the ability of the armed forces … to increase or sustain security along its borders.” An additional $500 million is allocated to help "security along [Jordan’s] borders.”

Another nearly $1.2 billion is available until September 2021 to "enhance the border security of nations” such as Jordan, Lebanon, Egypt, and Tunisia.

This is at least the third conservative yearthat American taxpayers have been forced to pay for border security enhancement in foreign countries in the Middle East, as Breitbart News has chronicled.

If it works there why won't it work here?

And why are American taxpayers funding security for these nations?  They should borrow the money from China like we do.
