Security at the southern U.S. border is “deteriorating by the day,” Russell Vought, acting White House budget director said, blaming Democrats for refusing to approve Trump’s repeated requests for wall funding.
Russell Vought, acting White House budget director, said Monday security at the southern U.S. border is"deteriorating by the day," and he's blaming Democrats for refusing to approve President Donald Trump's repeated requests for wall funding.
That amount would be on top of the funds Trump will redirect from other programs as part of his national emergency, said Vought, who's minding the Office of Management and Budget after previous OMB head Mick Mulvaney left the agency to become the president's acting chief of staff. "Congress refused to fund his wall and he was forced to admit defeat and reopen the government. The same thing will repeat itself if he tries this again," they said in a joint statement Sunday.
