[ Full Title: Pelosi, Schumer speak after Trump announces deal to reopen government - live updates]
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer are holding a press conference shortly after President Trump announced a deal to reopen the federal government. The House and Senate are expected to vote on a continuing resolution (CR) that will keep the government open for three weeks to negotiate over funding for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and a border wall or barrier. ... After refusing for over a month to sign any government funding bill without money for a wall, Mr. Trump agreed to sign a bill to reopen the government without wall funding. The CR will include $1.3 billion for border security, and is essentially the deal that the GOP-controlled Senate in December before the shutdown began (this resolution would be in effect until Feb. 15, rather than Feb. 8, the date agreed upon in the December deal). The House and Senate will also establish a conference committee to continue bipartisan, bicameral negotiations over border security.

[This is]essentially the deal that the GOP-controlled Senate in December before the shutdown began
Oh, GLOATFEST 2019!
Key is that this is based on the Republican controller Senate resolution in December...
Gloating were they?
The sweet taste of victory, huh?
Trump will pay a heavy price for backing down no matter the reasoning given in his defense, etc.
When he backs down let me know
Na na na na na!
Blah, blah, blah. Drones and sensors and tech, oh my. Same verse, second as the first. Trump may have just cost him the re-election.
Fail.....
Gloatfest. You beat me to it.
Okay. Hey wanted to let you know he caved. Gave Nan and Chuck exactly what they’ve been demanding with nothing in return. Don’t know if Nan has given him permission yet give his SOTU address. Stay tuned. She thinking about how magnanimous she wants to be in victory.
SOTU is gonna be Academy Award performance...
The media is painting this as a defeat for Trump.
Purty quick for an old guy. LOL!
Oh it’s over. Sorry I missed it.
Get with me in 2 weeks.
Rinos and quitters. What’s the difference
This are the most disingenous and evil people in the galaxy.
Why? Because you are so narrow minded you can see through a key hole at 100yrds?
Economy not good enough?
Federal Judges not working for you?
1-3 more swings at SCOTUS isn’t important?
Being number one in O&G for once and destroying Russian and Iranian economies by that virtue isn’t enough to make you smile?
Reduced taxes and regulations?
And on and on and on
Pelos-A$$ and Schumer-SH!T at work... Need to go to confession with these bad thoughts about them...
if you’re going to reconcile take those abortionists with you
Just STOP the negativity!
PRAY FOR OUR PRESIDENT!!!!!!
