Passed this session indicating appeals court must hear it first. The court in between will likely hear it in next 12 months. I am delighted NP said no as Trump offered too much Saturday.

Tuesday we start Month 2 of Shutdown, so its just the 2nd inning of the game.

Bob, pay real close attention for a minute. The 9th circuit heard the DACA case on November 8th and filed an injunction against Trump blocking him from killing DACA. https://www.vox.com/policy-and-polit...p-when-lawsuit

On January 18th, 2019 two months AFTER the appellate court ruling SCOTUS released their calendar DACA is NOT ON IT.https://www.aol.com/article/news/201...year/23646749/

It is not on THIS session. That does not prevent it from coming up again.

I am, btw, quite content, with a far, far, longer shutdown. I am not content with giving too much to Dreamers beyond minimum legal requirements. Bare minimum.

So nice of you not to care about 800,000 of your fellow Americans not getting paid with many working for free while Trump's shutdown continues.

Stupid wall? Is that what you told congress back in 2006 when the actual wall bill passed with both Schumer and Obama's signatures on it? Thought not, hypocrite!

Oldglory --- I think that those who call the wall "stupid" despite having been told time and time again and given valid links that prove otherwise, just need to admit that they want wide open borders.

Still want Pelosi and Trump in a giant weaponized cage match with noone allowed out alive. Two of the bottom 10% of worst humans to infest this planet.

And he never said they'd pay directly either. See how that works?

But they brought back the ones they needed to administer the auction for offshore oil leases, isn't that special?

the 2006 bill was not for a wall, it was the "secure fence act" and involved double rows of chain link fence

Seems you're referring to the Secure Fence Act of 2006.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Fence_Act_of_2006

It's not a stupid wall. It's a fence. And about 700 miles have been completed.

It's not Trump's "big beautiful 30 ft concrete and steel wall."

BTW, he's never gonna get that. Because Mexico, congress and the American public have laughed in his orange ape-like face.

Carry on.
