Brilliant John Thune advocates for what the Democrats want - no wall, no fencing.
No one cares what you think, John.
No one expects you to do a damned thing either, so just go ahead and insert you thumb where everyone knows you keep it.
Defending our borders seems like Defense issue, but maybe that’s just me ...
Our only hope, in the next full session of Congress, is for a massive lightning strike to hit the Capital and take out all who are in the building.
Seriously.... I thought this so called Thune had a deadly disease a few years back and was on the verge of ....... leaving this mortal plane. Maybe I have this nobody confused with another useless GOPer.
the republicans can’t go a week without reminding us why they’re called the stupid party.
This is how Trump should play politics. He should AGREE to not make 5 Billion for wall a requirement. But refuse to sign ANY bills with foreign aid. Have the Democrats shutdown the Gov’t over foreign Aid - UNLESS he gets 5 Billion for the wall as well.
I saw this report yesterday. In fairness Thune is in favor of allocating the money for the wall. He’s just not in favor of playing budget games of shuffling money around from other programs, like defense, to pay for it.
NO MORE MONEY TO DEFEND OTHERS UNTIL OUR BORDERS ARE PROTECTED.
Has there already been a vote? We need someone else as whip
Bush League Republicans MUST become extinct before the Republic does.
The political class doesn’t want a wall. They tell us walls don’t work. Well, except for around their homes and in other countries.
They want cheap labor and Democrat voters, and to hell with us.
another open borders traitor. All those who support open borders should meet a traitors fate.
$5 Billion is 1/8 of 1% of Federal Spending for last year. These people are pathetic. Unfortunately the math challenged people probably don’t get it.
Much misplaced anger is visible. President Trump wants the southern border wall; he is being opposed by every interest who doesn’t want it.
[...]
President Trump said he wouldn’t sign another CR that didn’t fund the border wall. Right now Mitch and Chuck are writing a CR that doesn’t fully fund the border wall. Why would Mitch McConnell do that? Because he want’s to that’s why. UniParty !
Mitch McConnell, Chuck Schumer, Nancy Pelosi and Paul Ryan are working to put a take it or leave it bill in front of the President and force him to accept it. Republicans currently control the House and Senate. Why would McConnell and Ryan put President Trump into that position? Because they want to, that’s why.
[...]
It’s a big club, and we, along with President Trump, ain’t in it. Getting you mad at President Trump is in the DC interests. The UniParty knows how to play you.
President Trump represents a second party in Washington DC. The people who write the laws (lobbyists), and the people who sell the laws (politicians), cannot allow that. They need to get back to UniParty political business. They need to get rid of Trump.
Think about it as you direct your fire.
Your enemy is not President Trump.
Carry on….

Our whole political setup is smoke and mirrors...and we are the patsy’s.
THE BORDER WALL: What it’s REALLY ABOUT!
As anyone with a brain saw during the “Kavanaugh Klusterhump”, the Marxist/Socialist Democrats on the Left (but I repeat myself, thrice) will do ANYTHING to seize and retain P.O.W.E.R. Senator Graham got it exactly right during that would-be lynching.
In addition to their having philosophically captured HUGE slugs of the academic, judicial, administrative and, yes, ecclesiastical sectors beginning back in the Wilson and Roosevelt eras, their Marxist Socialist Utopia was not developing quickly enough for them.
Comes then the so-called “Feminist Revolution” of the 70s during which the Left convinced millions of American women that having, raising children and maintaining a home (and “baking cookies”!) was BENEATH THEM. The feminists succeeded in persuading women that despite the historically valid fact that mothers performed one of the most vital activities necessary to preserve a national culture: The passing down to the young the values FORMERLY considered essential to the maintenance of the culture. Millions of now “emancipated” women fled the home for the workplace and, as a direct result, the birthrate dropped to around 1.2 child per couple, below the 2.1 figure necessary to offset the mortality rate. Our native population is SHRINKING and that trend continues. (Obviously, this topic requires a separate analysis and essay.)
Over the post-Wilson/FDR years, the Left – aided by quasi-socialist Republicans – erected a welfare system designed to lure the less “ambitious” among us to the dole. Not only have the less “ambitious” native born availed themselves of those programs, so have the estimated 22 million who have managed to slip through our currently porous border. Thanks also mainly to the efforts of Democrats when they have succeeded in gaining majorities in Congress and the White House, eligibility rules for those programs have been relaxed for most of those 22 million. Though they probably needn’t have done so, Democrats continually remind those scores of millions of welfare recipients – legal and ILLEGAL – that they owe their fealty and their VOTES – again, legal and ILLEGAL (think Broward County here and only God knows how many others) to – THEIR DEMOCRAT BENFACTORS.
Which brings us to today.
These new, improved leftist Democrats – and some very stupid and short-sighted National Chamber of Commerce GOP business types seeking bottom line enhancing slave wage workers - want these mostly young, physically fit, military age MEN to fill in the ranks of their already significant cohort of loyal welfare constituent Democrat voters in order to assure their ascent to and hold on the political power necessary to fully birth their cockamamie Utopian tyranny despite the history of tragic and deadly failure for which such systems are infamous.
And those millions of young, physically fit military age men (an unknown number of whom are MS13 and other criminals)? They will become the modern equivalent of Hitler’s Storm Troopers or Einsatzgruppen the ruling Democrats will conscript to ruthlessly – and successfully — crush the resistance to their Utopian tyranny by the by-then minority of remaining Americans who remembered and cherished the Founders’ vision of liberty and promise for this place — this IDEA – called “AMERICA”.
