Personally I think we should be conducting war games down on the border.
Note what Donkey Cart is not doing -- repealing EA76:
"Aiming to rein in this proliferation, Congress passed the National Emergencies Act in 1976. Under this law, the president still has complete discretion to issue an emergency declaration but he must specify in the declaration which powers he intends to use, issue public updates if he decides to invoke additional powers, and report to Congress on the governments emergency-related expenditures every six months. The state of emergency expires after a year unless the president renews it, and the Senate and the House must meet every six months while the emergency is in effect to consider a vote on termination.""By any objective measure, the law has failed. Thirty states of emergency are in effect todayseveral times more than when the act was passed. Most have been renewed for years on end. And during the 40 years the law has been in place, Congress has not met even once, let alone every six months, to vote on whether to end them."-- Elizabeth Goitein, The Atlantic
So nice of Betty to give our President a roadmap to declare a National Emergency...
That was the “Class of January 28” photo.
Similar photos were taken of the “Class of January 29,” the “Class of January 30,” the “Class of January 31,” etc etc etc.
Stop the madness! Stopping this crap is DECADES overdue.
Thanks
I just signed out of my subscription, brought up another browser and checked the ABQ Journal. I found you can see the story after answering a silly question. Mine was “Do you own or rent your home.”
It's as if #Karamela has hired Bobo's former speechwriter, who in turn has secretly sub-contracted the work to Moochelle's former speechwriter.
Bkmk
The Udalls have been pests in congress for decades.
Either the Executive has the power or not. If the Executive does, Congress cant pass a bill denying the power. LOL
><
And do the idiots think Trump would sign it into law? They’re stupid.
Kabuki theater
Right.
That’s the real point.
Go to the White House website and look up the text of emergency declarations. They cite many laws passed by Congress and signed by the president. Those laws can be modified or undone by the same process, or by veto-proof super majorities in Congress. Let ‘em try!
I wonder how much money these “senators” receive from human traffickers and the drug cartels?
The specific emergency powers that Trump would use came from congressional legislation. Congress can repeal that law - but they need President Trump to sign the repeal.
I wonder how disrespectful the rat party will be to Trump tomorrow night State of the Union Address? These lunatics would pass a bill banning breathing if it made Trump leave office. There’s no reasoning with these fools. Just gotta vote.
The commie ‘RATS are really counting on these Mexican Raiders to bring in voters for 2020.
Fake polls are all over the place. They are a joke.
No wall will eventually end our country as we know it in the long run and in the short term will make President Trump a one term President.
Grandstanding without the Prez.
Support.
It is all the same, kneeling against the flag, fake news and the hate within the Dem. Party. There is no respect left in the country! Most of the people running for President so far, are full of hate. The media is full of hate. The NFL is full of hate. Most of us just want to see a little respect for our country.
