The growing crisis...at our border? Or with the WH/Mueller?
Southern border...vast quantities of illegal drugs? "A small percentage of all heroin seized by CBP along the land border was between Ports of Entry." DEA (2018)
Thousands of lives lost? Show me what responsible expert govt agency agrees with this.
Law enforcement professionals developed this? Really? Who? Whitaker?
No one has objections to better technology to stop illegal drugs and such. The question is whether you shut the govt down to get what you want, including this rdiculous wall.
Steel or concrete? Who cares? Ridiculous waste of time.
Common sense? This reminds me of Voltaire, "Common sense is not so common." Particularly these days
Agree our Border Patrol are brave. But so too are the rest of our govt servants, who right now are operating without paychecks
If you think this can get done in a 45 minute meeting, do it the old fashioned way, get a law passed by Congress. Don't hold the federal govt hostage to your ridiculous unpersuasive desires.
If these events were enough to justify the wall, why didn't you get it done for 2 years when Republicans controlled the Presidency, House, and Senate? Why now all of a sudden when the House just happens to have turned Democrat?
Trump will "never forget the pain in their eyes"? Really? This doesn't even pass the smell test.
Trump talking about "right and wrong" is almost as persuasive as him talking about not forgetting "the pain in their eyes"
Wow. That was weak. My first year law students would have done a far better job
