this is a fight most Americans didn’t want—and it’s over a wall most Americans don’t want, either.
Americans are largely pro-immigration; three-quarters of us believe that immigration is a good thing. And two out of three Americans think that immigration should either stay at its current level, or increase.
More importantly, one survey found that more than half of Americans don’t want a new wall, or any broad security barrier at the border.
In another survey, 40% of Americans polled chose the president backing down and accepting the $1.6 billion Democrats have already offered for border security as the most popular option for resolving the shutdown (whereas only 24% said Democrats should fund the $5 billion).

MILES OF OPEN SPACE——STILL NEED THE WALL, IMO.
Wall would have been very effective had it been finished,,,,Biden prevented that from happening.
CORRECT
Propaganda paid for by USAID.
We could spend a $ billion for rainbow tattoos on perverts’ junk…..

I’m always amazed by dudes like you who will convey to others blatant falsehoods that are so easily refuted. It’s sad that such deceptive behavior has now become prevalent whenever and wherever Marxist-Democrats open their yaps.
I am pro-immigration, . . .
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Why?
Funny how there wasn’t 5 billion for the wall but billions for Ukraine, Taliban, etc etc etc
And most people DO support the wall.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Without question, but hardly worth pointing out to someone who’s just demonstrated that she’s a blatant liar!
Just remember, at some point another Biden will be in office and we will be happy to have the completed wall.
Maybe a Wall isn’t as important as just actually manning the border and telling people they’ll be arrested and not rewarded if they cross it?
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.
Except for two considerations: (1) the majority of Americans, especially those who live near the border and others all over the country who have suffered physical harm and/or property damage want the wall built, and (2) Marxist-Democrats, Deep State apparatchiks, and other American haters would somehow have to justify demolishing the wall without revealing themselves to be total FOOLS!
So instead we spent $150,700,000,000 on taking care of illegals between 2021 and 2025. That not counting the costs to deport them now

She’s your typical radical left moron. Pay her no mind! Probably lives under a bridge!
Lindsay Koshgarian wrote this crap. Her bio: Lindsay Koshgarian is the Program Director of the National Priorities Project (NPP). Her work on federal budget priorities highlights the militarization of the federal budget and the corresponding lack of investment in people and the planet. Her published reports include analyses of militarization in the federal budget, from the Pentagon and war, to militarization of U.S. borders, and the militarization of law enforcement. Her work has appeared in outlets including The New York Times, The Washington Post, MSNBC and others.
Looks Like she is an expert in spending OPM.

These people simply do not care that they expose themselves as complete imbeciles. Probably the drugs!
$1.5B for the wall. Seems like couch cushion money now.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.
Compared to the dollar amount of the Government fraud already revealed by the DOGE crew $1.5B is chump change!

Pay her no mind, she’s an idiot!
What’s it like to be asleep for four years?
A totally asinine view on what Americans want. However if I did a poll and only included liberal scum I’d expect this outcome.
The so call journalist which is now someone who reads blogs and memes associated with their point of view as fact.
the post-covid surge of illegal migrants into the USA was a planned . . .

Excellent post that clearly describes how criminals throughout our Government, in league with criminals in the governments of other countries, have been robbing American taxpayers for many years, and are still doing so today.
A wall will work under any president unless they tear it down. Relying on enforcement means any dem can just open the spigots again with a single word, instantly.
