After Democratic congressional leaders refused Trump’s requests at a meeting in the White House Situation Room, the Republican president threatened to take the controversial step of declaring a national emergency and building the wall without congressional approval. Trump is withholding his support for a bill that would fully fund the government until he secures money for the wall. As a result, around 800,000 public workers have been unpaid, with about a quarter of the federal government closed for two weeks.

Use the money the U.S. has frozen from El Chapo to build the wall. I'm not sure it would be legal to do that until he is found guilty of something.... I have not kept up with his situation so I don't really know if he's been prosecuted or not.... It is a very good idea though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest PinkBelt Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 Border security and the TSA are calling in sick at record numbers. Many have started to drive Uber's since they can not longer feed their kids or pay rent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
