Actually, it's the Democrats that put party before country how else do you explain their defense of illegal aliens and their aversion to border security that actually works?

Malarky.

Democrats have constantly voted for funding for border security. So much so that a good deal of what was authorized last year hasn't even been contracted for yet.

Obama administration deported thousands of undocumented individuals. According to ICE reports, more than the Trump administration.

Bingo.

Whether Collins is choosing the honorable path or hoping this will be outweigh her support of Kavanaugh with voters remains to be seen.

They also have to ensure the drugs keep flowing in and reaching their destination, that is a MUST if they want to keep the drug war going, cannot justify huge spending on a drug war...if the drug supply is cut off or reduced.

How many times has it been explained that Republicans did not need a filibuster-proof majority, they could have used budget reconciliation.

As to Paul Ryan taking a stand, please. The guy had no backbone. If Trump and McConnell had wanted that money, he would have gone along with it in a heart beat.

The majority of the drugs coming across the border is not coming on the back of illegals crossing the border. A wall will do very little to stop the inflow of illegal drugs. If you want to slow the flow of drugs crossing the border you must do it a ports of entry and the security stations along the border. Common sense is lacking when discussing this issue.

Rest assured Senator Rubio won't be getting my vote next time. He's all hat no cattle and nothing but mouth when it comes time to do the nut cutting. He has said many times that the border must be secured first before there can be immigration reform and then he stands in the way of securing the border. What a POS.

"Corrupt politicians" you say...

Even smaller family-run businesses with an imbecile at the top just LOVE hiring cheap illegal labor.

Very amusing.

Carry on.
