There's no emergency on our border? Despite literally thousands of people being murdered in the past decade near our border, not to mention the millions of people flooding into our country illegally during that time as well.

How delusional can you be?
National emergencies were declared by Obama and Bush for far more petty issues.
Plus, all the heroin epidemics, in multiple states...how is THIS much dope consistently coming in? LOL


Someone needs to inform Trump of how corrupt DEA and other narco LE is today, its these guys that do everything they can to make sure the drug cartels thrive.

That is on the other side of the border and not our problem. That is Mexico's problem.

This isn't an emergency.

Democrats aren't voting $5.7 billion for Trump's wall when there is no plan whatsoever, not what it will be constructed out of, where it will be built, what a realistic estimate of the total cost might be, ... nothing but his BS.

Even if it is built, it will do nothing to stop drug trafficking or human trafficking either for that matter. If the goal is to get jobs back for citizens, E-Verify with penalties does that.

The federal budget is already a trillion in the hole. No reason to keep digging.

Drugs are being flown in, coming in by boat, and coming in through the ports of entry in the current wall.

Extending the wall is not going to change that.

That's not the way I see it if my opinion is confirmed by the facts its a distinction without a difference.

Should I do it enough its wisdom and could spark a scientific revolution like Galileo.

You realize that the costs of the federal shutdown exceeds the money Trump has requested?


I don't understand why people like you parrot liberal talking points instead of listening to border patrol agents who clearly state that at certain points on the border a wall definitely works.

Wall won’t stop heroin. Most of it’s comes through ports of entry, not just walked across the border.

Time to end this.
And almost twice as many over stayed their visas. With the worst offenders there being Canadians.

A factual statistic is a fraction of that.

Illegals are less violent than we are.

That’s not news for the US. That’s Mexico.

Irrelevelant.

The majority of drugs come in the San Diego corridor.

They already build barriers where they need to be. Maybe they aren’t building more because over the last decade they’ve come up with a better solution?

Has nothing to do with corruption genius. If people want to get high, they’ll get high. Drugs will always be available. Prohibition has always failed.

Good God I wish the man would do something. One would think that this *crisis* would have been addressed on Day ONE of I1's presidency.


Instead - he rushed to deliver a massive tax cut to his rich cronies and the border only became an *emergency) once the Democrats were in office.


This is nothing more than a naked political stunt on the part of I1.

Are you of the opinion that all the heroin or even MOST of the heroin is coming across the southern border?


Because it's not.

So they know exactly how all these drugs are coming in? Why does the drug flow continue as consistent as its always been then?


Ive said it before, there can only be 3 explanations for this...either DEA, border patrol, etc are ridiculously ineffective, or there is collusion.
