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

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.”

They don’t care about citizens, they care only about new voters.

This sounds like a group self confession that they are enemies of America. We really need to look at laws that could be used to neutralize these agents of countries and groups seeking to overthrow the USA.

-—...unless it reduces the government’s ability to detain illegal immigrants ahead of deportation.-—

What does that mean? We can have the wall as long as Border Patrol allows the illegals easy entry?

Hispanic Democrats have declared their fealty is to their ethnic cousins and not to the US Constitution, the citizens and the rule of law.

Sure, let’s just not have a border. Let anyone from anywhere just walk into the USA and partake in welfare, free housing, free education, free health care, etc. Let’s turn the nation into a cesspool nation like the nations these people come from. Democrats won’t be happy until we lower our standards. Let that sink in next time at the ballot box. Democrats do not favor a strong nation governed by laws. They are for a nation of renegades, invaders, bloodsuckers, non-contributors, etc. - just as long as they vote “D” during elections. Wake up folks!

[Mindless tribalism will be the end of the republic.]

It will be epidemic around the Globe, during the End Times.

Prophesied by Christ Himself in Matthew 24.

The tribes are making sure it will happen. Their favorite target is Whitey. Eventually there will be near anarchy. And then, lots of martial law.

Supposedly, someone complained about the letters J, A, P being used in license plates. I haven’t looked that one up yet.

What’s a “hispanic” politician in America anyway?

Obviously a politician who ISN’T a US citizen.

Because then he/she would be an “American” politician.

See, my pop was born in Italy so that is where my ancestors were from.

I’m not an Italian this or an Italian that.

I’m an American with Italian ancestors. At least recent ones. Who the hell knows where before that?

What matters is what are we all now?!!?

They said...

Then they said...

they want to eliminate all money for the border wall

So a border wall "reduces the government’s ability to detain illegal immigrants ahead of deportation?"

No wonder they can not figure out which bathroom to use.

I've been hearing the End is Near for nearly 50 years. Makes you wonder what "near" means.
