Day 25 of the SCHUMER SHUTDOWN
Posted by: The Facts ()
Date: January 15, 2019 08:40AM

The longest Government shutdown and counting.

The “no compromise“ Democrats refuse to put forth any MEANINGFUL attempts to open the Government. In fact the Democrats REFUSE to negotiate at all.

“Obama I will not compromise” gets 90 million hits on Google.

Tell them to STOP THE SCHUMER SHUTDOWN and get back to work.

Looks like we’ve been Wexton’d AGAIN. She promised to reach across the aisle. She hasn’t and doesn’t seem to care about Federal workers in her district. Call her and let her know how you feel.

She has come out as a total Pelosi acolyte. No one really believed Jenni when she lied that she'd reach across the aisle though. The beauty is that it was the feds in her district that voted for her 70/30 and now they're getting fucked in the ass. Justice!

Regardless of other views on the topic, should note Wexton among 70+ other members of Congress choosing not to get paid during the shutdown.

BFD. That is like praising the Son of Sam for not violating the jaywalking laws. You don't get cover for doing 100 shitty things by doing one decent thing.

Making America Great Again! Imprison Trump for Lying about the Wall.

Only Hard core Trump supporters are calling it a Schumer Shutdown, or a Pelosi Shutdown or a Democratic Shutdown. Trump owns this baby.

But 88% of Trump-voters think that it's the Democrats fault, because...

A) GOP House passes CR through February 8
B) GOP Senate passes CR through February 8
C) McConnell says Trump approves and will sign.
D) Lawmakers head for home
E) Coulter and Limbaugh call Trump a wimp
F) Trump refuses to sign CR -- shuts down 25% of government instead

Oh, those pesky Democrats!

Stupid liberal posturing instead of defending the American people from criminal illegals drugs and leeches by supporting a barrier on the southern border to keep them out as much as possible

Whining Nancy P crying "WE" don't want the wall, Too bad ! Democrats are 1/3 of the power structure of America . The GOP has the White House and Senate

Since when does that mean Democrats get their way all the way with 1/3 ?

Keep the non essential government closed Mr President until these cowardly Democrats start defending our nation by supporting the southern border wall

If it takes more then 3 months Then America CLEARLY DOES NOT NEED 1/2 of These Feds ! Don't allow any budgets that's not cut by that amount ! American is seeing it with exception of "Lets make a deal uninformed Democrat idiots" . Leave them behind with the 50% excess unneeded feds

The Trump Administration's DHS is still only asking for $1.6 billion.

Initial Ask:
https://www.dhs.gov/news/2018/02/12/department-homeland-security-statement-president-s-fiscal-year-2019-budget

Budget in Brief:
https://www.dhs.gov/sites/default/files/publications/DHS%20BIB%202019.pdf

"$1.6 billion for 65 miles of new border wall construction in the Rio Grande Valley Sector to deny access to drug trafficking organizations and illegal migration flows in high traffic zones where apprehensions are the highest along the Southwest Border."

To date, no amended budget has been sent to Congress. $1.6 billion was fine from 2/2019 through 11/2019, and then suddenly in December, Trump declares a crisis, but still the DHS hasn't updated their budget request to ask for much less justify a higher amount.

Why on earth would Congress appropriate MORE THAN WHAT DHS IS ASKING FOR????

If Trump wants more money, his own people need to demonstrate a shred of competence.

Forgive me, wanted to say the $1.6 billion was fine from 2/2018 through 11/2018.

Bottom line is Trump's own people haven't formally asked for more money, which is what you do if, guess what, you want money...

How come Mexico hasn't come into the picture with their check for the wall?

Didn't donny orange nuts say Mexico was gonna pay for it?

Of course, this is indicative of donny not knowing how government works.

He certainly knows how politics work, that is, get slightly over 1/2 the Americans to believe in his BS and get him elected.

Stupid hillbillies chanting "build the wall" and believing Mexico was going to pay for it...as if that would make their lives better at all.

Donny is smart that way...he knew there were enough idiots in the US that could get him elected just by spouting off stupid sh**.

Neither Pelosi nor Schumer are in Puerto Rico. Nancy went home to California and no one knows where Chuck went. Both are back in DC now. They simply refused to go to the White House to meet.

So they're back, but Trump didn't invite Pelosi or Schumer. He only invited rank and file Democrats, trying to sow division but it didn't work.

When the shutdown started the GOP had three thirds of the power. You couldn't get it through then either.
