Hispanic Democrats Say Feds Should Eliminate All Money For Border Wall
Washington Times ^ | Nov 28, 2018 | Stephen Dinan

Posted on 11/28/2018 2:49:19 PM PST by Proud White Trump Supporter

Hispanic Democrats drew a red line Wednesday in budget negotiations, saying they cannot support any year-end spending bill unless it reduces the government’s ability to detain illegal immigrants ahead of deportation.

The Democrats also said they want to eliminate all money for the border wall — not the $5 billion President Trump is seeking, nor even the $1.6 billion that Senate Democrats have said they’re willing to spend.

“We urge the Committee to provide zero funding for the border wall,” the chair and vice chair of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus said in a letter to GOP leaders. “Five billion dollars is a waste of taxpayer funding to build an unnecessary and operationally ineffective wall at our southern border.”

We want 25 billion for a real wall, not fencing!

The sad fact that most Hispanics are more Hispanic than American.

The invasion from the south is decades old, filled with people propagandized with the lie that America stole Texas and west/southwest states rather than winning them in a war Mexico started. We also paid them for it, a fact they don’t learn.

Beware Americans of destroyers within.

These DemonRATs are held by the strings of groups like the National Council of La Raza who wants fundamental change to America for their own self-serving interests. La Raza is a group that exploits, for the purpose of lining their pockets, the bigotry of those they agitate with anti-American rhetoric. Follow the money.

These migrants from countries like Mexico just want to get American money into their Mexican banks so they can go home some day and have enough money to live like kings. Meanwhile, the flow of money continues and the producers of this nation will be taxed to grow these bank accounts until America goes broke.

Not just Democrats:

Senator Lindsey Graham even went as far as to say he was a part of La Raza by saying “We’re going to tell the bigots to shut up”.

I say we should eliminate all Hispanic Democrats.

Yeah; I should have phrased it that way.

Senator Lindsey Graham said it in 2014. What motivated him? Was it McCain’s influence or worry that the Dems would push him out of the Senate if he had anti-border jumper sentiments. I suspect it was McCain and those seductive money strings they were both sucking up to.

Graham has not changed his spots.
He is still an open borders/amnesty Bush League Republican.
He’s just smart enough to start his McCain two step, sound like a conservative for two years, then when re-elected, act like an amnesty whore.

“Mindless tribalism will be the end of the republic.”

Mindless tribalism will be the end of the neo-Nazi democrat party.

Then how about eliminating all money for illegals, huh? That would solve the entire thing.

“Senator Lindsey Graham even went as far as to say he was a part of La Raza by saying “We’re going to tell the bigots to shut up”.”

It’s pretty obvious that you’re a damn Soros troll. You run around here blasting Graham who is being effective by his recent comments and support of Trump.

You NEVER, NEVER criticize the amnesty senators from your shithole state. In fact, I seriously doubt that Virginia is your home state.

Your sole purpose is to denigrate Graham regardless of what he does.

Thats. All. You. Do.

You’re either a leftist crank trying to create dissension on FR or you’re on the Soros payroll. Probably both.

We have only 4-5 Senators that side with the citizens and rule of law.

If we want to keep our country we have to do a lot better than that.

It starts with replacing those who have proven they side with illegal aliens and their employers by voting for amnesty like Graham.

But we are racist.

All Hispanic “democrats” need to be eliminated from Congress. Those bastards aren’t Americans. They back and support the Hispanic invasion of America.

The Democrats need to be told that the border wall need never be built ...so long as they can guarantee that no illegals ever come across the border.

I LIKE that idea! Use the cartels’ $ to build the wall.

Eliminate all handouts to illegal immigrants. They’d scamper back across the border faster than Speedy Gonzales.
