JANESVILLE, WI— Wisconsin businessman Paul Nehlen held a press conference on Saturday in front of Paul Ryan’s border wall surrounding his Janesville mansion. Nehlen demanded that Ryan either build a wall to protect the American people or tear down his own wall that protects Ryan and his family.

Yeah, I was wondering about that, too. That seems like an awfully big place for someone earning $223,500 who needs to maintain two homes.

A very expensive home on a very large piece of real estate.

So how old is Ryan and how did he get that kind of money working in government?

No wonder no one wants to make a big fuss over Hildabeast.

He resides in his office in Capital Building...No kidding! As per his own voice in an interview with I think that Baer guy on fox. He said he showers and shaves in Congressional Gym. A real sicko .

rents are high in DC. There are several members of Congress who live in their offices, or rent a room in a friend’s house.

Also, is Janesville some kind of swank place, or can a nice house be obtained for a few hundred thousand?

In CA, where we are, a large lot could set you back a million, before the house is even built (but maybe after the old one is torn down). But in Janesville, WI? probably much more affordable.

I don’t always like what Ryan does, but I do not think he is a crook. We really need to save a word like that for folks like Hillary.

Ryan is going down. One way or the other. Nehlen will keep campaigning even if he doesnt get the primary. Which he just may do.

Follow this guy’s twitter if you haven’t, folks. He’s smart, witty, and he pounds Paul Ryan’s decisions relentlessly. At the 4th of July parade, Paul Nehlen was told only incumbents could march, so he literally had a banner promoting his candidacy flying over the parade.

Looks more like a fence, rather than a wall.

I referred to it on his FB page as a border with a gate and how America should have one too.

It's from his wife, I think. Excerpt:

Upon finishing her schooling, Ryan, who is a tax specialist, lived in Washington, D.C., for about a decade. She continued to work as a congressional aide for some time and then as a corporate lobbyist, representing some of the biggest names in a range of industries. Among her corporate clients were Blue Cross/Blue Shield, Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America, Marathon Oil, the United Parcel Service and the Cigar Association of America.

In a period of about three years, Ryan's 20 corporate clients paid more than $2.7 million in lobbying fees to her two employers, PricewaterhouseCoopers and Williams & Jensen, according to an August 2012 Huffington Post article.

(Snip)

While her husband is a conservative Republican, Ryan comes from Democratic roots and has been labeled a "practical conservative." Ryan's uncle, David Boren, was a Democratic governor and U.S. senator. His son, Ryan's cousin Dan Boren, is a Democratic U.S. representative. Additionally, Ryan's family was friendly with Democratic U.S. Representative Bill Brewster, for whom Ryan worked as a congressional aide for some years.

Following her mother's death in 2010, Janna Ryan inherited between $1 million and $5 million, which reportedly accounts for a large portion of the wealth that she and her husband now enjoy.

It’s like how the folks in Detroit and Chicago continue to elect Democrats despite failed policies.

That’s not much of a wall, looks like it’s pretty easy to get over...

But I get the point...

Maybe Nehlen should drop a couple dozen of the invaders in front of Ryan’s “wall”....

See what happens...!
