It was a message repeated several times at a Democrat news conference Tuesday afternoon: Republicans, agree with us on a spending bill, or well blame you for shutting down the government.
And it appears that Republicans, who control all three branches of government, are listening:
Now last night, we received a bit of good news not just for Democrats but for the country that the president is easing off his demands for a border wall in the government funding bill, Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) told the news conference.
The money is better used elsewhere, Schumer said. If the wall is $50 billion, you could use that money to give just about every American broadband.

Those that want it already have it, those that don’t, don’t want it.
If the wall is $50 billion, you could use that money to give just about every American broadband.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
And non-Americans, too.
And what about the money blown on climate change?
Chuckie, money is fungible, and can always be used for something else.
The untold billions—far more than the cost of the wall—we spend on illegal education, welfare, and incarceration—could give everyone a lot more than just broadband, as well as a safer community.
Yeah Schumer! Why protecct America and Americans when we can give liberals more fee chit!/S
Unless the money can be used to return to life all the American citizens killed by illegals chucky can take his money and shove it....
If anyone gets free broadband, I want some, too.
Money from the Congressional Pension Plan could be used to BUY Every American a Brand New Handgun, Congress can go on Social Security.
Schumer waves the promis of ‘broadband internet’, attempting to woo all those millennials to his side.
So, Chucky ... wave that carrot in my face, while some darn illegal invader is crawling up my butt??
G.F’d!!
The total estimated cost was approx. 15 billion. Schumer pulled his $50 billion number out of his ......
Yeah, Chuckie, ignore your sworn responsibility to protect the American citizen and spend it on something totally irresponsible. That’s what you Dems do in a nutshell.
Who wants an Internet rationed by the govt?
Better yet, buy every household a vending cart for when the robots take our jobs.
And these “progressive” jack holes had the nerve to call Trump a buffoon.
If you build the wall we can save on:
1. Educating
2. Emergency visits
3. Food stamps
4. Prison costs
5. etc. etc. etc.
We would be able to give every U.S. citizen wifi, a free device of their choice, free vouchers for education of their choice, and the list goes on...
HUH?!?!?!!?!?!?!
I could think of another word that begins with fu that i’d like to use in a sentence to chuck.
The wall will pay for itself
that should be the message
also trump needs to get tough again
here’s an idea-—tell the dems if they block wall funding he will repeal DACA. See what they do with that.
The tax dollars thrown away on freebies could be redirected and pay for the wall
