Full title: Schumer to ask Trump to divert $5 billion in border wall funding to fight gun violence, white-supremacy extremists
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., on Tuesday said he'll ask President Trump to withdraw his request for $5 billion in border wall construction funds, and to instead use that money to battle gun violence and white-supremacist extremism following two deadly mass shootings this month.
Schumer's office said he will formally petition the president to put the funding toward gun violence research by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Department of Homeland Security counterviolent extremism programs, FBI domestic-terrorism investigations and other programs.
"The dual scourges of gun violence and violent white supremacist extremism in this country are a national security threat, plain and simple, and it’s time the Trump administration and Republicans in Congress starting treating them as such," Schumer said in a statement.
"Now Republicans and this administration need to put their money where their mouth is when it comes to addressing gun violence and stopping the rise of domestic terrorism, especially stemming from white supremacy," the statement continued.

Schumer can shove his silly little childish ideas up his Obamahole.
Chucky talks like he’s been hittin’ da happy smoke. What a clown.
Is Schmucky gonna cwy about it too?
If you are white and love America, you’re a white nationalist and a threat.
This is an implicit admission that Trump HAS the authority to spend $5 billion on the wall TODAY.
Just in case anyone thought Schumer is sane, he wants to set them straight.
He is a total idiot.
I can hardly wait for President Trump’s response.
I’m just wondering how Trump managed to keep a straight face when the schlub Schumer asked him to share his hard-won border fence money with the dummocraps for their frivolous made-up purposes. I’m sure it took masterful self-control not to just bellow out, “Get outta here!!!” at that idiot.
Nobody dares to say which group commits the most violent crime, including mass shootings. I am so tired of this! When does the little kid show up to say the emperor has no clothes?
Hey Chuck? Try this. Sh*t in one hand and wish in the other one and see which fills faster.
This man (shoelace) gets dumber by the second!!!
Sure, all the shooting of blacks by black in the ghettos are the result of “white supremacy”.
Political posturing. Schumer, so transparent. Phony, but transparent.
Hey Chuckie, define White Supremacy and give a real world example otherwise go away.
So they can say Trump refused to address gun violence.
Suddenly “White Supremacy” is a grave national threat.
the propaganda is so cheap and transparent now, it’s pathetic.
Hopefully more and more people are getting fed up with all the BS and Crying Wolf the Left is spewing.
Trump and his support should continue to gain strength.
If democrats would stop shooting people gun violence would drop by 90%
If you love America, you ARE a threat to Schmuck Schumer's communist totalitarian agenda.
