Does House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy think it’s funny to have to delay border wall funding? Apparently so. In a Tuesday appearance on Fox Business News with Maria Bartiromo, McCarthy giggled when revealing funding for President Trump’s top campaign promise was being pushed back months.

What’s the alternative armchair POTUS?

I would donate (even though I certainly pay enough in income taxes already) to a special build the wall fund! Maybe put it on tax filling forms, with strict provision money not to be used for any other purpose? Or a build the wall all-state lottery? Just saying, if I could help...I'd be happy to!

And you’ll have a Rat in there who will be even more obstructive.

He wouldn't be Speaker, now would he?

It’s not the status as Speaker that McCarthy is using (nor House Majority Leader, the one he’s actually holding). It’s his status as RINO. So replacing him with a Dem will not make things better, of course.

Anything that includes AMNESTY is DOA.

He asked the congress to legislate amnesty for the Dreamers pure and simple.

Yes, I know. But if we speak up, are consistent and clear, members of congress, like when presented with this in the past, will again vote No. If we are silent, they’ll sell out and give these illegal aliens amnesty, which will drive more to come in the future. We’ve got to hold Congress accountable. And, yes, if Trump signs it, then hope a credible challenger shows up in 2020, else sit out. Actions have consequences and I won’t be forgiving of more amnesty offered to illegal aliens that should be rounded up and deported.

These pukes are going to hang themselves if they trip over each other working to rescue illegals while delaying the delivery of legislation reflecting the desires of voters.

They truly are living in a bubble, they STILL believe the polls and Trump WINNING the election was not enough of a message for them evidently!!! Americans are NOT being honest to pollsters for fear of being considered a racist!! In the privacy of the voting booth their message is coming through loud and clear legislators choose to believe the donor class which will be their demise!!! We will see many of these ASSHATS primaried and STUNNED just like HELLARY!!!!!!

Exactly! He’d just be a backbencher RAT, and I would take that hit if I was convinced that McCarthy’s career was over, and that perhaps the GOPe’s hold on the leadership took a major hit. I mean can you see them “elevating that worthless idiot Cathy McMorris Rodgers?” She’s almost as bad as that RAT idiot Senator, from her state, Patty “Tennis Shoes” Murray.

Like I said, McCarthy isn’t speaker either. He’s House Majority Leader. Ryno is Speaker and that’s bad enough.

And the presumed backbenchers aren’t idle; how else did we get Zerocare?

Not only that, the Trump Derangement Syndrome certainly would motivate the Rats of all degrees.

Different era;different age;different America, rope and tree was appropriate. 2nd Amendment up Patriots. The enemy is within the gates and quite entrenched. This sh*t is playing out to a spark to set things off.

In the dark recesses of my once Military Mind, I'm thinking nothing short of a wholesale replacement of our con-gress will resolve ANY of our problems. This cycle of replacing onesy twoseys just no longer cuts it. They no sooner reach the swamp and they are consumed. Traitors one and all. Copious use of hemp rope is what's needed, then the replacements will go in with full knowledge of what awaits them.

And then he put on a short skirt and a sweater top, grabbed some pom poms and went out to the football field to hit on the Team Captain.

“Trump rescinded DACA, which you thought would not happen.”

Are you sure about that? By the end of day yesterday. He was implying if congress doesn’t protect the “dreamers”
he will.

Not hard to understand. They’re not going reverse themselves.

“Jeff Sessions Announces DACA Demise

I’m here today to announce that the program known as DACA that was effectuated by the Obama administration is being rescinded,” Sessions said. Later calling for an “orderly and lawful wind-down.” “

I agree there is no ambiguity in Session’s statement but I must say from what I am hearing/seeing today there is room for some doubt. I just wished if Trump is going to end up compromising on this that he gets something for it, like border wall funding for instance. I am not saying in the end he won’t but right now I have not heard of any such deal.
