Hard to imagine that there are actually breathing human beings who…

Think climate science is a hoax and, simultaneously, think Mexico is going to pay for the wall.

No. Mexico is NOT PAYING FOR ANY WALL.

There will not be a wall.

Congress has 100% absolute power of appropriation, and the military appropriation specifically directed that no money could be redirected to any wall.

Plenty of funding was provided for actual border security: Democrats voted to give Trump $1.3 billion for border security that would actually work, not just build a border monument to Trump’s ego. Proposals offered by Democrats would address the actual threats by…

• addressing the CAUSES of illegal immigration at the source: U.S. actions in the 1980’s destabilized Guatemala, El Salvador, Nicaragua and Honduras. Many coming here are indigenous Maya who do not want to leave their homes. Help re-stabilize what we broke and they won’t even want to come (Julián Castro’s “Marshall Plan” for Latin America)

• addressing electronic monitoring of tourists/students to prevent visa overstays

• electronic and high-tech border surveillance, including infrared, drones and other electronic monitoring that is far more effective than any wall

• increased inspections of vehicles and cargo shipment containers that enter LEGALLY at border checkpoints, where there is not enough equipment or workers to complete adequate inspections

• increased monitoring of entries through airports

Democratic proposals would address whatever legitimate issues actual exist today, which do NOT include border crossings on the southern border.

The magic sharpie, with it the Chosen One can make “Alternative Facts”…..

Even the Taliban don’t attack their families. Think about it.

It’s a sad state of affairs where the military’s greatest threat is from its Commander in Chief.

trump’s way of acknowledging the military budget is bloated.

Now that the military budget robbery is going to affect Moscow Mitch’s state, I wonder when that war will start? Will he have just one tiny gut to stand up and say…ENOUGH!

Who says he can’t change….he’s using a RED Sharpie.

What an utterly repulsive fat sack of maggot-ridden, festering, rancid dog turds! (And if I was to say how I REALLY feel about that moron, I’d get banned for a week or more, AGAIN…")

This borrowing money from the military is yet another scam.. the money “borrowed” will just be re requested and because it is the “military”.. they will get it.

I am losing respect for the institutions that hire these losers after they leave Trump’s presidency, either by “choice” or by “push.”

I wonder when we will find out the Trump’s Wall is being built by some hidden subsidiary of Trump Inc.

What happened to the separation of powers?

Moscow Mitch is right – Fort Campbell really doesn’t need or want that 63 million for a new middle school to relieve over crowding. They want to protect us from the southern invasion. (Note: I attended schools in Okinawa and Germany as an Army dependent – and good schools they were)

A simple redefinition does wonders.

Thief and liar Trump is stealing from military families and children. Trump is still putting brown children in little cages. Have you seen Trump’s racist ICE arrest any white people?

Republicans reduce and destroy Snap, food stamps, welfare, assistance to children.

Republicans war on children so they can increase the debt by giving tax breaks to rich people

So far Trump has not built even one mile of wall.

Mi muro es tu muro …

“Roman Empire history says that when an emperor started to abuse the army of the country, the Army rose up and got rid of their oppressive emperor.”

Sorry.

Our Army is mostly off fighting several undeclared wars in often unknown – and certainly unpronounceable – parts.

’Wonder if “a well-regulated militia” would suffice?

Frankly, Scarlett, let us wait until our psychopathetic presidunce is well and truly out of office and gone with the wind before we start getting serious about gun control. We may need to remove him from the White House the hard (but OH SO REWARDING way). Perhaps a forklift? Details after the weather . . .

Junta anyone?
