One thing is for certain. The Republican Party is NOT in any WAY, SHAPE or FORM the least bit SERIOUS about curbing Federal spending.

Apparently they agree with me that the Fed can just keep printing and the rest of the world will have to sit down and accept it. If I’m wrong, disaster looms.

If I had to guess I would say that RBG is on full life-support and that this will be soon reported.

Trump is one willy old businessman...he has to have some sort of leverage here.

Well I think he will veto it after hearing the negative reactions from the right. But who knows. He was leaning against it and they even were about to postpone the vote I just understood.

@SenateMajLdr: “I’ve indicated to (Trump) that I’m going to support the national emergency declaration.”

Poor McCabe and fired Scott Pelley, they are now off the front pages this evening.

Not if he declares national emergency or just moved discretionary funding around.

Declare national emergency first, veto bill, close government. Ask for new bill that does not conflict with national emergency before opening up government.

Get ready for a legal battle. Liberal jusdges are waiting on standby.

Hawaiian Federal Judge, here we come.

Kinda weird how, Hawaii, not needing a wall, is likely to dictate to states that do.

That would be ideal...and bypass the restrictions/limitations in the spending bill that could be applied to the Natl Emergency Declaration.
