Several freshman Democrat members of the new House of Representatives majority have turned on Speaker Nancy Pelosi in her steadfast refusal to fund President Donald Trump’s planned wall along the U.S. border with Mexico and are instead seeking for Democrats to cut a deal on the wall with Trump.
The ongoing partial government shutdown, which affects a quarter of the federal government and is now the longest shutdown in the history of the United States, began late last year just before Christmas. It dragged through New Years into the new Congress, and Pelosi–after she won the Speakership vote after fending off internal Democrat rebels–has refused to negotiate with President Trump on the wall. She and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer say Trump will never get funding for the wall, and they are keeping the government shut down because they refuse to pass any funding bill that has wall money in it.
House Majority Whip Rep. Steny Hoyer (D-MD), Pelosi’s second-in-command, says that Democrats are unified in their opposition to negotiating with President Trump on the wall. “We are totally united — totally,” Hoyer said, per the New York Times.

Call them.
Call them again.
Lean on them hard.
Call them.
Call them again.

Probably too busy picking out the new curtains for their office.
Did you notice on his “Harley for Congress” page that he is standing in front of a wall?!?! The same kind of wall everybody in his district has around our houses. I pointed that out to him.
The enemy is starting to waver. Hold fast, President Trump!
I guess they want a second term
OMD?
Here we had an openly pro-enemy movement during the Vietnam War, including a regular commuring service to Hanoi and nobody did anything about it. Nothing.
Apparently treason is just fine, as long as you are a Democrat.
IF the Democrats somehow do win this one, there will be articles talking about how pummeled they were getting by their constituents, and implying that the media SPIKED those stories.
The point of the articles will be to show the power of the media, in only ONE SIDE of what’s going on.
Sorry OMB, Office of Management and Budget.
