The House approved a $4.5 billion supplemental spending bill on Tuesday night to address humanitarian issues at the U.S.-Mexico border and to provide additional funding for food, water, medical services and stronger protections for unaccompanied children, among other things -- setting up a showdown between the Democrat-led House and the Republican-led Senate.

The idiot Customs and Border Protection Chief Operating Officer John Sanders has a big mouth which he should keep shut, or forfeit his job to someone more discreet. He is blabbing about "children have died", etc. etc. Well, they were very likely sick before they got here, and being dragged along for thousands of miles by their so-called parents certainly didn't help them. Why are we to blame? Why do we have to pay for this?
Congresscritter Nita Lowey, a super libtard, bleats, "That’s why this bill is so important. It would provide necessary funds for urgent humanitarian needs including food, diapers, and blankets." Why the HECK do WE need to provide food, diapers, and blankets to a bunch of unwanted criminals and their spawn? Is Lowey gonna pay for all this?
This idiot wants to spent near a BILLION taxpayer dollars for "food, water, sanitary items, blankets, medical services and transportation to migrants." Why do we need to give them medical services and transportation? Unless it's 180 degrees backwards to wherever they came from?
THIS is what you can expect from dummocraps: endless tax hikes beggaring you so that they can cultivate their new voter base - people who have no business being here and who have even less business voting.
They can’t come up with the same amount for the wall?
That’s really bad
Not a dime to protect the citizens from the invasion of our country, but billions for the invaders.
We need a new Congress, BOTH parties.
Keep re-electing Flimsey Grahamnesty and he will get his amnesty.
Never fear... The Senate republicans will fold like a cheap tienda.
I thought Ryan retired...hmmm
Senate republicans ought to send it back to the House and demand a comparable amount of funding for construction of the Wall.
Sadly, though, I expect our spineless Rinos to capitulate.
Truly infuriating how the Mexican government has stepped forward to do the right thing, as our own congress refuses to do what must be done!
If they only cared a tenth as much about Americans as they do Mexicans.
We don’t vote for them illegals do. EOS
My biggest worry is about what else they his in the bill that they have to pass to find out about.
Good point.
Rs have shot down some pretty lousy bills in the senate.
Let’s see what happens.
They don’t have much courage but at least they vote the judges in and the no brainer bills like this one usually get shot down.
A tienda is a store. Perhaps you are thinking of a traje?
In any case the GOP can use this to show that the Dems care more about illegals than they do about their own citizens. It's DOA.
There’s a poison pill in the bill I’m guessing. Nasty wants the senate or preferably Trump to shoot it down or swallow it. They leave for the 4th of July vacation soon. Trump needs to start the clean out now.
All the translation sites I can find say tent=tienda. Are they all wrong?
Check it out for yourself before you correct me again, ok?
NO money for border security just MORE handouts to the illegal invaders.
It has boiled down to if We the People want the border secured, We are going to have to do it in mass. There is no other way out.

you name it, damn near any third world shiite hole is getting a free pass to the American soil
PDJT needed to start the clean out 3 years ago. Maybe these big leaks about ICE raids would not surface and his administration can proceed with his agenda.
No, he is shooting himself in the foot by allowing these Obamabots to remain in their positions long after he put his admin in place.
You’re right. I only live here in Spain. What would I know?
In another sense I guess you are right. I was assuming you were trying to say folded like a cheap suit, which is a very common expression and the #1 answer if you just search for the expression "fold like a cheap ___" So that was my mistake.
It’d only cost maybe a million to stock the Rio Grande with piranhas and gators.
If most legal citizen voters would disapprove of this $4.5B spending then this is taxation without representation.
Also, “tax day,” April 15, needs to be moved to the last working day before election day.
