CONgress can't bother to fund Wall but can pass bill to gut student data privacy! (employment, spokesman)

[MongooseHugger]

Clearly we need to open up a can of Whoop Ass on both parties (Obummer already weakened FERPA with an executive order and now the Rethuglicans are weakening FERPA further with a Congressional bill.)

CONgress can't bother to fund Wall but can pass bill to gut student data privacy!

Well, that's Republicans for you ... 'nuff said.

I agree, but the Dems have their role too in the data rape and open borders.

WTH? Have you been living under a rock and just woke up? It's the Democrats that are refusing to fund the wall. WTH?

Exactly. I doubt Trump would really care that much one way or another about this. It's the entrenched business interests that care. Even then, I think that once a ground rule is set across the board for all kinds of data privacy rather than the patch work that we have, businesses of all stripes will adjust and move on to do something else. Until then, businesses in one sector just feel they need to get legislation to use all the new fancy software available to data mine.

It's mostly the Democrats though and it certainly isn't Trump that doesn't want it funded and built. Funny how Schumer approved of the wall back in 2006 but now he's against it? Hmm.

“Most Democrats”.....seriously? Your previous statement claimed it was solely Democrats. Talk about moving the goalposts.

You sure do play that 2006 card a lot. They approved of a fence back then, not a wall that would cost tax payers billions more.

https://www.politifact.com/truth-o-m...der-wall-2006/
"Mulvaney is referencing their votes on an act that authorized a fence, but as we’ve noted several times in the past, the 2006 fence was less ambitious than the wall Trump is proposing."

"Democrats have described Trump’s wall proposal as overkill and too expensive." - I agree with this.

The GOP could have let a ton of shutdowns happen (if they were short the 60 votes in the Senate) or they could have played the same game to get around the 60 vote rule that the Dems used to pass Obummercare without 60 votes.


While I agree the Dems are bad, I'm not defending the sellout GOP anymore for their inaction.


Also, back to the FEPA bill which weakens FERPA even more than Obama's unconstitutional executive order did......
