It doesn't matter how small of a portion of whatever budget $5.7b is. Taxpayers should not be forced to pay for a project that is a) outdated technology b) not requested by anyone in DHS/border patrol c) not wanted by a majority of US citizens.
I assume that if the administration really thought they could declare a state of emergency and pay for the wall out of whatever fund they want they would have done so already. This will be challenged immediately in court so the point will be moot. They know they can't do it so they had to resort to fear-mongering and 'alternative' facts.
Even Fox news called out Sarah Sanders yesterday for her straight up lying about how many 'terrorists' were arrested at the border. She claimed the number was 4,000 when it is really 6 arrests at the border resulting in people ending up on the terror watch list. The rest were arrested at airports. Then you have Kelly Anne Conway claiming it was an 'unfortunate misstatement'. No, that is a lie.
