Faller says both countries paying to help
.@Southcom's Adm Faller specifically points out to @POTUS a brigadier general from #Colombia
"President Duque has sent us his best, & paying for it" Faller tells @POTUS "He comes here fully paid by Colombia & her works for me"
Faller also commends #Brazil for sending a major general - "one of the sharpest in the Brazilian armed forces" - to work on counternarcotics
"Again, Brazil is paying for him to come here & work for me" Faller tells @POTUS
"The wall is coming along very well" @POTUS says after remarks at the briefing by @DHS_Wolf
Trump then tells @EsperDoD "that's been really one of your pet projects"
re #borderwall #Pentagon
"That's real wall. That's wall that you don't get through-tough stuff" per @POTUS
"That turned out to be very lucky for us that we had the wall or else we would have been inundated" he adds, referencing #COVID19
"We have the best equipment anyone has, as a military" per @POTUS "We have things under construction that we're going to take a look at one day soon where we have missiles, I hear, that go 17 times faster than any other missile"
"It's something that nobody has anywhere in the world. 17 times faster, so it's a little hard to spot it when it's goes that fast because by the time you spot it, it's gone" says @POTUS
