Two Islamic terrorism incidents today. Three this week. Several this year already. Right now, while we are at maximum threat level, the democrats have decided to shut down DHS when we need them most. All so they can prevent ICE from taking foreign child molesters into custody and sending them home.
I certainly hope that when the Spring breakers take all day to get through airport security, the kiddies remember who caused their pain in the ass. Democrats lost the election yet they still think they should be in charge of policy. Dipshiddery on parade.
Both sides have pursued creative approaches to remedy the funding lapse. Ahead of the vote on Thursday, Republicans attempted to pass a short-term measure by unanimous consent to fund DHS while negotiations continue. Democrats blocked it. Democrats then attempted to pass measures to fund TSA, CISA, the Coast Guard and FEMA, which DHS also oversees. Republicans blocked those.
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer outlined Democrats’ position on the Senate floor Thursday, saying “we all know that we do not have agreement on how to deal with ICE.” But he argued “we don’t have to tie that disagreement up and use people at the airports and American citizens as hostages.”
Dems are always caving, so I’m surprised they haven’t.
The option is for people who start threads to discuss them evil Dems is to look into what part of dhs is shut down and what part isn’t. Security services are operating at 100 percent and 100 percent funding.
Really? Tell that to the spring breakers standing in enormous TSA lines. They should be boobie flashing or passed out on a Meh-he-can beach by now. I hope they remember why they’re not.
They are not. Both tsa pre and global entry are operational. There are no long lines
You should probably stop.
It was timed perfectly to when travel slows down and then partially funded for spring breakers and spike in travel. Everything is going according to plan for dems
Pretend you want to stop ice but then keep funding dhs
I see. So, the democrats are trying to use leverage when their leverage doesn’t affect anyone? As I said Stupidity. You agree?
Oh, and thanks for the advice. But, I think I’ll decline. I’m not stopping now. Sorry, not sorry.
Oh, and this:
Travelers are complaining about hours-long delays at airports across the country as the partial government shutdown affecting the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) stretches into its fourth week.
Well, since the DHS budget is larger than every military in the world except for 6 countries, Trump inc should quit paying politics and move the money around to pay people.
