The warmongers in the Swamp that have been making a BOATLOAD of money off the death of U.S. Troops in Afghanistan and Syria through the endless perpetual state of war do not want to see the pig trough shutdown.

Mitch McConnell could have gotten border wall funding 2 years ago by simply doing away with the 60 vote rule. He stubbornly refused to do it. And mow this meaningless charade? So what about the peace negotiations with the Taliban then?

Between Never-Trump orgasms and cowardly RINO pandering to the media, a pathetic display of back-stabbing treason.

“Rebuke” isn’t accurate, “caution” would be accurate.

But the media has it’s aims...

We defeated Germany and Japan in under 5 years 70 years ago, but for some odd reason we cannot do it today?

The Senate has no authority in the matter.

We have spent on average of 100 Billion a year in Afghanistan since 2001 and 50 Billion a year in Syria since 2011.

Yet we cannot even get 5 Billion for our own Border.

Most of these 68 Traitors voted to arm Jihadist terrorists in Syria, most of whose weapons ended up in the hands of Al Qaeda & ISIS.

These scum of the earth Senators created the conditions in Syria that they say require us to stay in Syria.

I know it was led by McCain, and it is disgusting. Remember the photos of him with ISIS?

It is now an occupation. POTUS is right to pull us out of Syria & Afghanistan. The Deep State wants to keep it’s connections for covert ops in these nations.

Non-winnable with islamic nations and now more than ever the homeland is under fire. The neocons can flip off!

I don’t remember the constitution ever mentioning that congress was granted the Commander-in-Chief title and powers.

Maybe it’s in the amendments to the constitution. Nope! Not there either.

Oh, okay. I got it.

It’s all about the powers of congress to make assholes of themselves.

Trump should tell them to stick their rebuke where the sun doesn’t shine.
