"With a resolution blocking Trump’s emergency declaration expected to fall short of overriding veto, Republicans are already turning their attention to separate legislation spawned out of an intense separation of powers debate."

Just more fake news or are the Republicans really plotting to sabotage President Trump on border security?

If his veto is not upheld, then any and all chaos and deaths is on the hands of both parties. Just sit back and let the fallout happen. Trump’s hands are clean in this.

4 trillion for worthless wars and the un-Fabulous Four can’t sign up to let the CINC spend a few billion actually helping prevent an invasion?

Didn't McConnell tell Trump he'd back him up on this if he'd sign the spending bill?

Dems nearly always vote as a predictable 100% bloc.
Pelosi and Schumer tell them, they obey. Lacking any Dem help, the GOP gives up.

GOP side: maybe some RINOs may possibly vote with the GOP!!
What kind of a party is that?

Is the GOP now the new Dexter Village Ladies Garden Club board of directors? They probably are more dynamic and boldly active in getting things done.

Trump should temporarily switch to the Democrat party. As a Democrat, the GOP would be terrified of standing up to him.

Rand would rather win the dorm room losertarian discussion about hypothetical freedoms than protect us from an invasion that will utterly destroy our constitutional republic and turn it into a third world one-party sh*thole.

If ever there was a time for patriots to put away petty differences and unite, it is now. We are at the crossroads with no do-overs. Rand Paul just doesn't get it.

I think that this is a rehased article, updated with Rand Paul’s addition forming the NEA Four. Not exactly a revolt, three of the usual suspects plus Tillis, who appears to just be clueless.

GOP, is the enemy of my enemy my friend, anymore?
GOP is nearly completely pointless.
DC duo-party facade, owned by enemies foreign and domestic.

Each of these GOP quislings needs to have ICE drop a busload of illegals on their doorsteps, hopefully with a few MS 13 members included to show them what the country is dealing with.

Anyone that doesn’t support Trump on this needs to be primaried.

If Congress feels the Emergency declaration gives the president too much power, they can write legislation to reel the power back in.

But opposing him for using the power instead of tightening the language is to effectively oppose Trump’s policies while leaving the power concentration as is.

any GOPe voting against this will LOSE his/her seat, the public will NOT STAND for anybody interfering with a president trying to defend our country!

and it is both fully constitutional and in complete compliance with statutory authorization as previously passed by Congress

all this bullsheit is, well, foolish bullsheit

Looking from out/in it seems to me that if you have one democrat in the house and one the senate, and the rest are republicans, democrat party wins every important vote?

House will not be able to override. Story ends until USSC overturns the National Emergency Act.
