Not much in the link: “According to FOX News Majority Leader Mitch McConnell accused Democrats of adding “poison pill” provisions into the deal. One of those provisions allows small town mayors to veto any part of a wall built in their specific jurisdictions.”

Trump continued to emphasize today that “He had not seen the language in the bill” ....

Pelosi is apparently scheduled to leave town (again!!!) after Friday. Guess she will not stick around if their games continue past Friday. Just like last time.

6 Billion from when Hillary was Secretary of State.

17 Billion from El Chapo.

1.7 Billion from the weasels in Congress.

That ought to do it.

Well, of course they did.

Veto the bill and start the shutdown.

And just build the wall anyway.

It’s a clip from Tucker Carlson’s show - someone reporting that there’s a poison pill in the bill that states that any small-town mayors can put a stop to a wall being built in their area.

I don’t know how long this bill is, but they’d best go through it with a fine-toothed comb.

Cede those towns to Mexico and build around them. If they want to be Mexican make them Mexican. Make sure no legal border crossings are close and residents of said towns will have to go to the furthest legal border crossing to be allowed to cross.

Feds can’t just bypass the states and tell mayors what they can do, can they? Maybe in the Bizarro Constitution.

Trump can simply say:

This is no deal. This is a sham. This is disgraceful. This is sabotage of my goodwill. Democrats are playing games with the safety of the country.

Here is my veto!

Game on! Government is shut down again! Thanks to the lying, deceitful democrats!

Oh man. So the Nanzi Pelosi method of seeing what’s in it afterward is almost mandatory.

Of course it’s true. You don’t expect DemonRats to allow us to build more wall, do you?

As a matter of fact, Mitch McConnell himself, announced the poison pill. You don’t think Gateway Pundit should have published it? I know they only posit the conservative side, but so what? Very few outlets publish the conservative side of things. As thinking adults, I think we can take the information, and spit out any nonsense we might come upon.
