House Agrees To $1.6 Billion For Border Wall
dailycaller.com ^ | 9/14/17 | Robert

The U.S. House of Representatives passed a bill Thursday that will provide $1.2 trillion to fund the government past Sept. 30, and will allocate $1.6 billion towards President Donald Trump’s border wall.

The legislation gives $658.1 billion to the Department of Defense, $44.3 billion for the Department of Homeland Security and allocates the rest of the money towards other federal agencies. The bill lops all 12 annual spending bills into two one piece of legislation.

If Congress failed to act by the Sept. 30 deadline, portions of the government would be forced to shut down and all non-essential government employees will forgo payment until they reached an agreement. The bill now makes its way to the Senate for approval.

You still here?

It's so cute when little putzes (like yourself) try to jut out their slack jaws and puff up their sunken chests and look impressive ... Hey! Why don't you make 'karate-chop' gestures with your hands, and stamp your little feet? I hear some folks find that impressive. I don't, but maybe it'll make you feel better. Whaddayasay?

What do I know?

Not much, that's for sure.

Bugger off, ya putz.

Silly troll. You’re not even entertaining.

You might be crunchy, and taste good with ketchup, though. We’ll see.

Isn't that special ... the toothless, slack-jawed, sunken-chested, pablum-sucking putz (that would be you, windy-boy) thinks it can talk about chewing! LOL

Away with thee, thou fetid, foul-smelling, putrid, malodorous PUTZ!

BWAHAHAHAHAHahahahahahahahahahaha!!!

Oooh ... you even sound like a retard. Crunchy? Not with your toothless, slack, drooling "jaws". You remind me of a lamprey.

Get thee hence, thou doltish, addlepated PUTZ!

You spend an incredible amount of time trying to destroy Trump.

You spend an incredible amount of time saying I am trying to Destroy Trump and that is not true. I am trying to save him from the leftists that surrounds him and the sycophants that have nothing better to do than criticize every post that dares call into question any of Trumps actions.

He deflected today by claiming there would be no chain migration attached to immigration reform. He must be reading, the Base is not happy.

I can’t wait for the President to show up at the border with two bricks one engraved with the name Chuck the Other Nancy and cement those directly into the new border wall, the Democrats heads will explode.

Reagan didn’t get a wall either. History repeats.

He doesn’t want DACA.

I don’t get why so many freepers have gone around the bend.

DACA is rescinded. Dead, gone, confirmed, kaput. It will only revive if Congress votes for it. Enough Rs realize it is political suicide to vote for it.

Trump wants DACA a stand alone bill so the Rs can’t hide their votes for it.

Sanders says that Trump supports making an agreement on DACA.

Sanders says Trump wants a DACA deal to include massive border security and interior enforcement.

I don't understand why you've "gone around the bend".

Do you have a transcript or video of what Sanders said?

At this point, reading quotes or paraphrases or interpretations of anything anyone says is worthless.

I know what Trump has said directly and in statements on the WH website.

And I’ve never read or heard Trump say anything such as the above.

Breitbart quoting Sanders at the Friday WH press conference:

“He supports making an agreement on DACA, but that would have to include massive border security and interior enforcements.”

I want transcript or video of entire statements, not excerpts. Breitbart is almost unreadable lately, so any news has to be verbatim what was said, in full, or who knows.

“Making and agreement” can mean anything.

I seriously doubt President Trump is going to encourage in any way, continuing DACA.

I realized this thread is from some days ago - someone sent me a link to this thread and I didn’t check date.

The way stuff changes lately, 3 days is a long time!
