Sounds like bs to me. He had to waive laws to do this. And if he didn't do this what would happen? Would he get in trouble with the super president?
Yeah Congress didn't tie his hands and force him to override laws (which by the acts definition should only be invoked to protect the nation against threats).
He could just add easily declare his hands tied by the 26 laws he is instead breaking. He could say the wall's completion wouldn't do anything to enhance national security (something i recall libs saying when it was trumps wall).
This is a lie, plain and simple.
Waive laws? Lol. He would get impeached because that's breaking the law.
Yes you're recognizing the liberal urge to defend fascist behavior
Not defending it, since I'm not familiar enough with the topic, but he waived protections provided the laws - not the laws themselves, which must be within his power if he's done it.
