Chuck Schumer Tells Trump To Spend Border Wall Funds Fighting Domestic Terrorism Instead
The Daily Caller ^ | August 15, 2019 | MATT M. MILLER

Senator Minority Leader Chuck Schumer told President Donald Trump in a written letter Wednesday to spend his requested $5 billion for a border wall on efforts to combat domestic terrorism. The New York Democrat, alongside Vermont Democratic Sen. Patrick Leahy, argued in the latter that programs with more direct links to public safety should be prioritized when allocating federal funds, and that a border wall was uncertain to diminish the crisis at the border, the Washington Times reports. “Specifically, we ask you to consider supporting counter-violent extremism programs, domestic terrorism investigations at the FBI, gun violence research at the Centers for Disease Control and support services in schools and communities, such as school counselors,” the letter reads.

Gun Owners of America sends me emails daily. Today they want me to call my Senators to make sure they don’t vote for gun control.

My Senators are Schumer and Guillibrand. I might as well bang my head against the wall. If I lived in a ‘Red’(why red?) State or even a purple state it would be worth a shot. But this bastard Schumer is the scum of the earth and he’s never gonna get better than ‘scum’.

We’ll spend the savings from taking care of illegal aliens on curbing the violence being primarily committed by liberals, Chuckie. After we finish building the wall.

Schumer wants to take law abiding citizen's guns away whilst leaving the southern border wide open for the bad guys to get guns.

What a d-bag.

If illegal aliens begin killing politicians like they do ordinary citizens they would finally address the problem...like building a 30 foot wall around DC.

The FBI was investigating the Parkland shooter, but they let him go. They went after Trump and his associates instead.

The whole basis between that line of thinking is that we must have open borders because we have domestically produced terrorist trash.

That makes about as much sense as saying that since your toilet is plugged, you might as well let your neighbor $#*+ there too.

Trump doesn't NEED "funding" to fight AOC+3 and Antifa.

He needs funding to keep out those seeking to enter the country ILLEGALLY!!!

Now that we have decided the government can mandate citizens buy something..... time for common sense gun legislation that requires all americans 21 and over to own a handgun that is .380 or larger and complete an annual gun profeciency course.

And Chuck E. Cheese IS right at the top of our domestic terrorists! He is actively working for the downfall of our country, overrunning it with low skilled uneducated disease-carrying illegal scum whose only purpose will be to vote “D” for his party.

Africans are tribal warring factions and that’s not going to change. They “see” the wealth of the rest of the world now via the internet and to them you either share it with them or they will on day take it....just as they do after they get here as refuges.

I see no peace or abundance ever to find it’s way in Africa entire. Once their people are taught here they remain here and do not return to their better their country. it’s to comfortable to go back home and help those they left behind.
