”The House Appropriations Committee said the bill would set a path for reducing capacity at detention facilities for immigrants ahead of possible deportation. The panel said it would reduce the number of beds at the detention facilities to about 40,520 by the end of the fiscal year, down from a current count of approximately 49,060.”
Well, there you have it. The Bill is designed to codify catch and release, and fill our country with the poverty stricken, poorly educated, low skilled, disease carrying and criminal populations of Central America!

The Democrat and Republican Leaderships have conspired, for 35 years, to keep the border opened, and today’s Bill continues to allow and encourage illegal border crossings.
And Trump will no doubt sign it. What’s your take on him caving and receiving less than he could have received had he not thrown a temper tantrum and shutdown the government?
The cap on detentions is worse than no wall at all. Signing that bill would be caving plus.
And lets not any longer say “Democrats don’t want open borders”. That’s exactly what they want.
I’m not interested in that kind of nonsense. What is more important is, we have domestic enemies, mostly socialists and communists, who are hard at work to destroy America and the flame of freedom it represents. They have realized they cannot overpower America by force and have resorted to other tactics to destroy us, one tactic is to flood our country with the poverty stricken, poorly educated, low-skilled, disease carrying and criminal populations of other countries.
Make no mistake. There is a very real war taking place on American soil.

There is no surer way to weaken, subdue, demoralize and then conquer a prosperous and freedom loving people than by allowing and encouraging the poverty stricken, poorly educated, low-skilled, criminal and diseased populations of other countries to invade that country, and make the country’s existing citizens tax-slaves to support the economic needs of such invaders.
The bill makes catch and release the law of the land!

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s socialism will promise food on the table, free public housing, health care for all, free college tuition, and other niceties by taxing the so called rich; and if by chance her leadership gains control because of such promises made, the end result, as John Adams stated, “will be revengeful, bloody, and cruel”
Just going to have to elect more border control republicans. Odd, so many want to lower our standard of living by flooding the labor market and under mine the rule of law by allowing so much employment fraud…
The Democrats did make concessions as well. But not on wall funding. They offered less than they were already offering at the $1.6B range in the prior legislation that Trump threatened to veto after the Senate passed it in the last Congress, and that the House passed agin in the current Congress.
Democrat legislators added numerous aid and welfare programs in the 2019 spending bill to support the growing wave of economic migrants, even as they agreed to provide $1,375 billion for construction of a border wall.
The border spending bill for the Department of Homeland Security offers “$192,700,000 for improved medical care, transportation, and consumables to better ensure the health and safety of migrants who are temporarily in U.S. Customs and Protection] custody,” according to a congressional Explanatory Statement of the provisions.
The spending includes funds to aid and feeds economic migrants as they journey across the border towards jobs in U.S. cities, as well as funds to bus the migrants from the border to pro-migration non-profits:
Trump is getting less money for the wall than he could have got before the shutdown. And there’ language in the bill that it will consist of pre 2017 style fencing.
