He donates his salary each quarter for being president, I bet he does.

Imagine how far $5 billion would go to house homeless veterans.

Oh, BTW, most drugs come in via crates in ships. But we all know he and his followers just don't want "those" people here. It's not even about illegal immigrants anymore, the white nationalists don't want ANY immigration. Because, you know, it's "those" people.

Congress just gave mexico 10 billion.....what you say about that?


Oh and lookie RACEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Please, feel free to donate more!

I haven't donated anything. I'm just asking a question. You can't ridicule a site in one post when you don't like the content and then link to it to support something you're posting in the next without raising a few eyebrows.

17 illegal criminals are caught at the border daily...those are the ones who are caught....why do the anti wall people want that in our country? Maybe the one who get though, you'll give them a nice room and a cup of coffee.....



Spoiler
The term “criminal alien” refers to aliens who have been convicted of one or more crimes, whether in the United States or abroad, prior to interdiction by the U.S. Border Patrol; it does not include convictions for conduct that is not deemed criminal by the United States. Arrests of criminal aliens are a subset of total apprehensions by U.S. Border Patrol.

AND THAT is exactly why I donated. I'd rather give to a fund that all the money will be allocated to the task. The RINOs keep saying they'll fund the wall, yet never do. They are worse than the Dems. At least with the Dems you know they have no intentions on securing the border, other than:

Hire an army of gardeners to cut the grass at the border - Pelosi

I only hope some bureaucrats can't get their mitts on the funds and start allocating it for their personal projects.

It's more like $200B-$300B.


https://www.cato.org/publications/im...tive-use-rates


Immigrants use far more as a percentage of household than previously thought. Last year alone the figures went from 60B in Jan to 118B by mid-year. It will double again as estimates are always low.

Heres a clue-he probably stole that money. He's probably freaking out trying to figure out how to do it with this money too.
Aren't you misreading the article you link to? He stole what money?? He referenced investing over $300K in advertising since he was being pushed to do so by Facebook, and then they deleted his page.

He didn't *collect* anything.

Two days after the 2017 FAIR report was published Nowrasteh authored a critique that estimated the cost of illegal immigration was between $3.3 billion and $15.6 billion annually. The Cato report focuses on correcting what they say are false assumptions and mistakes in the FAIR study, such as rate of health care use.

The Cato study was linked in here. All I could do is laugh at their lies and spin about the costs of illegal immigration. First off they start with a lie claiming that FAIR calls the U.S. born children of illegal aliens, illegals themselves. That's simply not true! What FAIR said is that they are a direct cost of illegal immigration and that is true! Throughout their study they kept switching between talking about legal immigrants and illegal ones and many times just blurring the lines between the two and that's only the tip of the iceberg of their lies and spin.

Absolutely I can. If the opposing side believes in a site as valid, it makes the most sense to use that site in arguments with them when it supports me. After all they believe it. If I use Reuters for example, or something mainstream too many on the crazy side yell "fake news". So now If I use a site they approve of I ALSO get complaints.


Apparently it doesn't matter what the source is for you folks now does it?
