Yup. That money will continue to flow in like muffins into Rosie O'Donnell.
Since protection from invasion is one of the primary constitutional mandates of the feds (U.S. Const., art.IV, sec. 4), if they refuse, then their raison d’etre vanishes and they SHOULD shutdown.
“Trump repeated a claim made a day earlier — without explanation — that he’d recently approved 115 miles worth of border barrier. “
Hope its that “new and improved punji stick version!” Sad to say, we need the “optics” of illegals impaled on that sucker.
WE WANT A W A L L! <> A "fence", a "barrier" is not a WALL.
There’s a post here saying the house is putting up a resolution that taxpayer funds cannot be used for the wall and that Mexico must pay for it.
Which will then die in the Senate. Pelosi can put up all the crazy resolutions she likes next year. They won’t get anywhere in the Senate. Thank God for that.

In 2009, we were reported to have more than 580 miles of fencing along the US-Mexico border.

Today, just now, President Trump said he is aiming to have 500-550 miles (on a 1989 mile border) of new or renovated barrier by election day:

That could include zero miles of new fencing/barrier and fewer total miles than we had a decade ago!
Question is: How long will it take - one week, or one month?
If Trump had promised to shut down the EPA, I would have been even more excited to vote for him,!
Amazing and revealing how democrats spend like drunken sailors on everything they can think of EXCEPT and always EXCEPT for our national defense. The one thing above they are supposed to do.
we are winning two ways at once!
1. PDJT is pushing to get ‘the wall’...and
2. Schumer and Pelousy have shut down part of the Swamp
(admittedly only the officially-designated “non-essential” part, but this is still a big step forward!)
keep it up, guys!
MAGA!
IRS; Some people are designated Essential, others Non essential, so not everyone will be working. We will see how many more IRS employees become “Essential” once the filing season kicks into high gear! (Think possible delays in refunds!)
“Yup. That money will continue to flow in like muffins into Rosie O’Donnell.”
According to the Grace Commission it all flows into the pockets of the PRVATE Federal Reserve to service interest on the debt.
Next June.
And the DemonRats are b*tching about $5 BILLION for a wall?
It's NOT the money they don't like, it's the WALL they don't want BECAUSE A WALL IS PERMANENT AND NOT EASY FOR A FUTURE DEMONRAT (GOD FORBID) PRESIDENT TO UNDO!
I sure hope he sticks to the government closure until he gets wall funding. I am so afraid he will cave. I think Schumer and Pelosi should be called out as enemies of the state, wanting us to open ourselves to terrorists, freebie seekers, diseases, paths to chain migration, having non-citizens vote, etc. All kinds of really terrible things, and THEY are trying to use their offices to bring these things about. Hang ‘em, hang ‘em high!
And keep driving this home: the Rats sent $150 BILLION to IRAN, but won't allow 5 Billion to be spent to keep their future welfare voters out.
