Republicans Shut Down the Federal Government Again & Suffer Humiliating Defeat

That's definitely the way it should work -- Trump wins if he just rage tweets the word "CRISIS" over and over again. your government in action. Fuck all of this right in its dickhole.
 
anyone who says the Constitution is a fantastic document and this is the greatest nation in the world is a fucking asshole if the whole thing can collapse b/c one man decides his ego matters more than everything

said she went over to an area of the office where it's mostly furloughed civilians and took a bunch of TP from the bathroom
 
You can tell it's an emergency because he sat at home tweeting for three weeks before declaring an emergency.

when this is all over he'll probably throw another NYE party at Mar-a-Lago to make up for the one he missed
 
It actually is almost like that when you consider he lost the PV by more than 3 million and our electoral system is a fucking sham.

I guess the more populous Yankee states should have made a better deal back in 1787 that would more appropriately represent our wants and needs today.
 
If Trump declares an emergency, Texas could come into play if he asserts eminent domain. TX ranchers and farmers are very angry about their land being taken.

These cases also take years to wind their way through the courts.
 
I'm not sure Texas goes blue over this, but this is interesting -
While the House legislation likely won’t be taken up in the Senate, it’s notable that eight Republicans split with their party to pass it. “I think building a concrete structure sea to shining sea is the most expensive and least effective way to do border security,” Republican Representative Will Hurd, whose Texas district contains more of the southern border than that of any of his House colleagues, told CNN on Wednesday.

We need a wall! Goes to border where there is no wall, see a bunch of guns, cash and drugs. Where was this stuff taken from? Border patrol, “Oh all this stuff was from ports of entry” We need a wall!!

This was basically the logic of an NPR caller yesterday.

When the host told him that drugs come from ports of entry he said something like “Why would anybody ship illegal drugs through ports?” as if he had never seen an episode of Breaking Bad.
 
My aforementioned former student current tsa agent is selling plasma for some extra cash. Glad we're gonna keep all them brown folk out though.

Tried to explain this to a Facebook friend. There response was a mix of "borders have to mean something" ( he spelled it "boarders") and "gotta build a wall to force the drugs to the ports so we can intercept them".
 
The drugs are already going through the ports of entry. It's the only place they can move weight.
