A bill to provide $4.5 billion in emergency funding for the escalating humanitarian crisis at the border was on the rocks Tuesday as the White House threatened to veto over restrictions that would "hamstring" immigration enforcement -- and liberal Democrats complained the bill did not go far enough to rein in the administration's efforts on that front.

More than 144,000 migrants were encountered or apprehended at the border in May, many of them unaccompanied minors or family units, severely complicating efforts to house or deport them. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) says the money to address humanitarian concerns at the border and in detention facilities runs out at the end of the month.

It’s hard to read but in the upper left of that pic it reads “Peace to Prosperity Workshop”.

Nice pic. Well, it’s going to seem to work at first.

If I hadn’t read the Bible, it might sound appealing. It’s a secular dream for sure.

The Word is out there for all to see, but many are blinded by the worldly cares to see the Truth.

When their eyes are opened it may be too late.

It seems the Religion of many is Secularism
