Dante Posted January 11, 2019 Posted January 11, 2019 (edited) Ilegal breaching of the border equates to an invasion. Why can't wall funding come out of the defense budget? Pull some of the resources out of the middle east as not to increase the defense budget. Bing, bam done. On to the next thing. Edited January 11, 2019 by Dante

But let’s see if we can’t help our system too if possible. Maybe that’s a more pressing issue than the dumb wall. Except for Joe in Winslow. No amount of money is too little to spend on the wall for him.

It's actually a double berm wall, with land mines in between But hey, walls don't work.... Edited January 12, 2019 by Cinga

Maybe that’s a more pressing issue than the dumb wall. Except for Joe in Winslow. No amount of money is too little to spend on the wall for him. Expand The federal budget exceeds $4 trillion dollars. What exactly does "help our system” mean to you? DHS estimated in 2015 there were 12,000,000 unauthorized immigrants in the US. The "official" number has stayed between 10-12 million for the past years, with the acknowledgement from the government that while certain mathematical assumptions are made, they really have no $&$&ing clue. Recent study by some folks at MIT suggests the number is closer to 22 million, with an estimate the the floor is no lower than 16 million. I think the time for "but ...." has passed. There is no one solution to this problem, there is plenty of blame to go around and it's time to move forward with some semblance of a plan. As for "more pressing issues...", that's all in the eye of the beholder. Every politician involved in this absurd dialogue has spoken passionately about the need to address this crisis, and spoken about it as if it's a crisis at one point or another. I'd argue the victims of violent crime might suggest the issue is pretty pressing, and we can deal with the mating habits of the McCain-Kennedy skunkfish at a later time.

I am swinging my gates right now, moving 4800 tons of Mexican steel north... Asian carp are swimming alongside the barges as they go through the lock...

The real retard is the dolt for creating a diversion from his scandal riddled Presidency and fighting the "Browning of America" with his racist and immoral agenda so his minority constituents don't lose their grip on power.
