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?

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.

JWK

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.

So you have no take on the man you support as President agreeing to these terms? No opinion at all?

He seems pretty excited about this bill!

Exactly. No administration should have the power to detain as many people as they want. There must be agreed upon limits.

Border Security Bill Provides Aid, Buses, Legal Shields to Migrants

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:

Oh my GOD!!!

Money to make our treatment of detainees more humane?

The HORROR!!!

“Not one penny for the wall …”

Both sides caved.

It had to be.

That was nancy and she was hands off on the negotiation process along with ALL the house leadership team. and she will abide by what compromise was brokered and pass the bill.

Mitch did the same and the president signs off.

compromise. its pretty easy once the major players with bases to please are on the sidelines.

I imagine thats the thing that pisses of Trump supporters the most.

[Guvnah]

@NebraskaFootball

Whataboutism?

Nope.

Both sides caved from the absolute stances they took during the shutdown.

[CanadianJudo]

if anything the people at breitbart want to make the treatment more inhumane.

@Cratic3947

Just going to have to elect more border control republicans.

Funny we just had an election and had the opposite result

[CanadianJudo]

deportation is a messsy legal process the reason why GITMO is still open is because no one wanted the people being detained.

That is whataboutism. The same thing you are constantly railing against others for around here. And in the future please quote my whole post, or not at all. I do not appreciate the snipping in a means that changes what I’m stating. It is poor form.

@Plasmaball

Retention centers or homes till they can show up for their court. If found guilty they are processed back to their home…

To me, that’s still “release” as used in the sound bite “catch and release”.

In my opinion, when there is no space to detain, just send the overflow back summarily. They’ll most likely end up there anyway.

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.

Yes…reducing beds by 9,000 will just cause a tidal wave of illegals immigrants.

A reduction that is equivalent to 0.003% of the current population ofvthe United States.

Or maybe…just maybe…it will be a nudge towards fixing our broken detention and processing process.

You know…which was the stated goal of those that proposed it?

You fix the detention problem by increasing detention facilities, not letting illegals go.

[CanadianJudo]

You can’t just dump people in a country, that isn’t how the world works.

[CanadianJudo]

to bad Republican only care about building a wall and not about building centers.

No…you fix it by making it more efficient and prioritizing who you go after.

It is utterly foolish and of diminishing value…and in many ways damaging to the economy…to even attempt a 100% roundup of all illegals.

Not just Nancy.

You know that.
