‘There Can Be No Retreat’: Dan Bongino Urges President Trump To Fight

Dan Bongino implored President Donald Trump not to back down Saturday in Trump’s quest to do whatever it takes to build the southern border wall. Trump can build the wall by declaring a national emergency to access Department of Defense funds for the mission.

“He shouldn’t back down…This is it. To all the Republicans up in Congress, and the senators up there. This is it. This is the fight. There can be no retreat, there can be no backing down,” Bongino said.

President Donald Trump has no reason to hesitate in declaring a national emergency to build the southern border Wall. The national emergency is real and it’s hitting us hard.

Formally declaring a national emergency is not a big deal, especially if you look at all the foreign-focused situations that prompted President Trump’s predecessors to use the emergency option — including Barack Obama, who declared 13 national emergencies, 11 of which are still active. Did the mainstream media call Obama a dictator for using this strategy?

President Trump has declared three national emergencies himself. Surely the systemic destruction of the United States through open-borders crime and drug proliferation warrants a fourth push on the “emergency” button. If you look at all the dimensions of this issue — the drugs, the human trafficking, the cartel violence, the suspected terrorists routinely apprehended — the Border Crisis merits several national emergencies, at least.

Here are the 31 national emergencies that are in effect right now. Are these situations making you panic at all times? Are these problems bigger than the existential threat of losing our borders? You decide.

Our oldest still-running national emergency comes from the Iran hostage crisis. Does the existence of the Ayatollah constitute a national emergency? Yes. Should Barack Obama have sent the Iranians $1.7 billion in cash pallets? No, that should have been another national emergency right there.

2. 1994: Proliferation of Weapons of Mass Destruction 

Bill Clinton regulated WMD’s.

3. 1995: Prohibiting Transactions With Terrorists Who Threaten To Disrupt the Middle East Peace Process

This bans any dealing with Hamas and Hezbollah, but again it does not seem like the spirit of this national emergency has been upheld very well by some of our recent leaders. The Obama White House stifled anti-Hezbollah efforts to make it easier to finalize their disastrous Iran deal.

4. 1995: Blocking Assets and Prohibiting Transactions with Respect to the Development of Iranian Petroleum Resources

Some regulations on the oil business.

Something to do with exports.

10. 2001: Declaration of National Emergency by Reason of Certain Terrorist Attacks

9/11 was a national emergency. How Bush and Cheney responded to 9/11 left us in perpetual national emergency.

11. 2001: Blocking Property and Prohibiting Transactions with Persons Who Commit, Threaten To Commit, or Support Terrorism

This national emergency is a no-brainer. But it didn’t stop Barack Obama from making transactions with persons who commit, threaten to commit, or support terrorism.

12. 2003: Blocking Property of Persons Undermining Democratic Processes or Institutions in Zimbabwe

This is not more important to the United States than the security of our own border.

13. 2003: Protecting the Development Fund for Iraq and Certain Other Property in Which Iraq Has An Interest

Bashar al-Assad has been a longtime target of the national security establishment in Washington, which does not seem to care quite as much about the national security threat on our southern border.

15. 2006: Blocking Property of Certain Persons Undermining Democratic Processes or Institutions in Belarus

Belarus is a country in Europe.

16. 2006: Blocking Property of Certain Persons Contributing to the Conflict in the Democratic Republic of the Congo

Too bad this Bush-era national emergency is not called “Blocking Access of Certain Persons Contributing to the Conflict in Texas and Arizona.”

17. 2007: Blocking Property of Persons Undermining the Sovereignty of Lebanon or its Democratic Processes and Institutions

Lebanon is a country with borders, much like the United States.

Hillary Clinton took out Muammar Gaddafi and now there is an active slave trade in Libya.

21: 2011: Blocking Property of Transnational Criminal Organizations

Does this apply to the Clinton Foundation?

22. 2012: Blocking Property of Persons Threatening the Peace, Security or Stability of Yemen

Yemen is not known for its peace, security or stability, and neither is the United States in the age of open-borders mass migration.

23. 2014: Blocking Property of Certain Persons Contributing to the Situation in Ukraine

Ukraine and the United States of America are different countries located in different parts of the world.

24. 2014: Blocking Property of Certain Persons with Respect to South Sudan
