Me too. GP Is being exposed for the hacks they are. At least they stopped the OMG headlines.
Really need to see more detail or validation, but if it is true, city mayors could stop the federal government from enforcing/carrying out national border security, this would clearly be unconstitutional.
If true, it becomes just more anti-American treachery and lawlessness, designed by legislators to try and damage Trump. Trump could not sign such an illegal document, and it will have been busy design.
“... The measure also includes an expansion of gun control laws aimed at prohibiting persons convicted of dating violence and stalking and those under protective orders from possessing firearms.”

That’s poisonous.
Bill should be out soon.
Shut it down. This is a stupid agreement.
I thought Hilldog “misplaced” $60B while SoS.
It’s all just a power game to the Dems. They don’t give a rat’s ass about America.
I thought Hilldog “misplaced” $60B while SoS.
I do believe it was 7 billion.
If true even better.
House Dems are putting all sorts of junk in this. And it’s going to be over 1,000 pages so no one will be able to read it before voting.
Where are the calls for “a clean bill”?
The DemonRats never stop.
Mr President, your voters are watching.
Trump knows a national emergency would be overturned in 2 seconds by some commie judge..than it goes to the supreme court where Roberts would screw Trump over he knows it we all know it
If McConnell says there is a poison pill in the bill, HE should stop the bill even before it gets a vote in the Senate.
Otherwise, he is no better than the Dems.
Surely, the Pubbies on the compromise committee recognized it. Why did they let it get through the committee?
The war cry of RINOs: “Well, we tried.”
Because not all Republicans are on Trump’s side. I wouldn’t put it past them to let the Dems put a poison pill in the bill and hope that Trump doesn’t see it. A number of Republicans have no stomach for another shutdown.
“Feds can’t just bypass the states and tell mayors what they can do, can they? Maybe in the Bizarro Constitution.”
Well the Feds do have Constitutional authority over the border except in pinhead world.
Smells worse than out of date Surstromming.
I really hope Trump stands firm, its a no deal situation and he is Potus.
Time is running out, all the dems want to do is anything possible to get in Trumps way.
If Trump was Potus during WW2 the rats would deny him building the Alaska Hiway.
Sanctuary city mayors belong in the federal pen.
Which means shutdown. Again. Brinkmanship at its finest.
