Mike Pence crosses his arms? Unforgivable. Absolutely shameful! ![]() |
Sorry. Anyone who can see those images of the border facilities and not call for reform (like Mike Pence did) has not a drop of compassion in them. "We are compassionate" - my @ss. Name one thing you've done that demonstrates your compassion toward poverty-stricken migrants searching for a better life. |
Exactly. |
Congress won’t do anything. |
Just stop. The Democrats could change the situation in an instant - by changing the laws that encourage these people to come. But, they won't. Because, Trump. They will not allow the Republicans to introduce legislation to change the laws. Because, Trump. And, if the Democrats had their way - these people would all be released into the country. That is their ultimate goal. They are secretly happy that the holding facilities are overcrowded and understaffed because they can complain and scream about the conditions. And, those that scream the loudest voted AGAINST additional funding to improve the situation. Explain that. And, just stop with the "cages." These "cages" were the ones installed by the Obama administration. |
The left pretends to be Christian and it’s fake as f-k. |
the democrats can change the law unilaterally? how interesting. someone must have missed "school house rocks." |
Just it says in the Gospel: "Jesus crossed his arms and just stared at the lepers. Then he left." |
Oh, please. Nancy won't introduce any legislation to improve the situation. You know it. I know it. She won't pass anything that might give Trump a win. Without the Dems voting on these in the House, it won't happen. |
The left loves the conditions illegals are in and you are exactly right- they just want anyone who crosses the border to be released into America. They’ll keep illegals in these conditions to try to force Trump to do as they wish. Drowned kids are just another cherry on the sundae for liberals-look what TRUMP is causing! It’s a staring contest and fortunately for America, Trump won’t look away. |
To change the situation you need to do something so these migrants don't want or need to leave their countries. I'm sure there's not a Democrat who wouldn't welcome Trump coming up with new initiatives and investments in central America to help those countries stabilize their situations so people want to stay there. |
An overlooked reality.........
If the Democrats had listened and taken action when President Trump and CBP sounded the alarm MONTHS ago that there was a crisis instead of acting like little ostriches, we wouldn't have such overcrowding in these facilities today. |
The Democrats won’t allow it? Do you hear yourself? Last time I checked the greatest thing about being Mitch McTurtle is that he and he alone decides what the Senate votes on. Does Trump have an actual immigration bill for the Senate to vote on? Not a press conference. Words on page. Does the Senate have a bill that McTurtle put on the floor and was blocked? No and no. Because there is no bill. Because even Rs votes against funding the stupid wall (see the shutdown) and things like e-verify aren’t popular with the business community. And if the House did pass immigration reform, McTurtle would sit on it and Trump would veto it. Unless you think that McTurtle would let a Dem immigration bill come up for a vote. Anyone? Anyone? Bueller? Bueller? Republicans control the Senate and the Presidency. For two years, they controlled it all. And they had two chances to pass legislation without a single Dem vote during reconciliation. And they used those chances on (checks notes) the Tax Scam and the failed ACA repeal. If immigration was such an emergency, why didn’t they pass their dream immigration bill, no need to compromise for Dem votes, instead of one of these? So stop with the Dems won’t pass immigration whining. Thus far, Republicans haven’t actually written and voted on a bill for the Dems to pass. |
Glad to hear you say that. Lindsey Graham will be introducing legislation to change a few of our laws to discourage those from coming - requiring them to request asylum in their home countries, changing the length of time that children can be held, among others. In exchange, he will propose additional aid for Central America. So, we will see how Nancy and her members deal with this proposed legislation. |
Because they believe living breathing children deserve at least as much protection as 8 celled embryos? |
