Trump's on. Starts off talking trade deals. Highlights South Korean deal.

Just calls I believe the bill 'this ridiculous situation that has developed over the past week'. LOL. Has Secretary Ross talking about South Korea. Full announcement next week on that.
Trump's back, highlights no one has even read the bill. Starts talking the deep defense cuts over the past years (which is true). Yyyyyep.
Starts talking about how Democrats are demanding wasteful spending in exchange for military spending.
Claims its the largest soldier pay increase in over a decade. Surprising. Starts talking about military equipment.
He signed it. Alright. Turns this into a military situation. He says that 'he will never sign another bill like this again.'
Says filibuster needs to go. DACA recipients treated badly by the Democrats, Trump claims that they wanted to include DACA in the bill but it wasn't included by the Dems.
Apparently he's going to VETO any further spending bills until the filibuster is gone.
MAG DOG is speaking on the military now.
Just a short blurb about how the military will the strongest ever. Trump now on the border.
I feel blueballed by no Mattis-isms.
1.6 billion for 'the wall', really just the fencing. Nielson, DHS secretary, now. Sounds like another short blurb... except, oh shit, she's now going on about the wall. Saying they were deprived of the wall by Congress. They've got a full plan for it apparently.
I'm just going to say, this sucks, but as @debradelai pointed out, there are MUCH more important fights to be picking. For example, the Iranian Mullahs just got ROCKED by one of the offshore banks helping them evade sanctions just got shitcanned theguardian.com/world/2018/mar…
Caught by work, not a whole lot else to say about this. Oh well. It sucks, but I'm not panicking. Yet. My strategery thread might still hold up or I may be talking out of my ass, who fucking knows at this point.
