Without looking the Republicans and Kay Hutchinson pulled the funding for the double fence.

$1.2 Billion to build the fence to keep them out.......

And NBC says over $200 Billion to deport those already here.....

Someone tell me again which is CHEAPER!!!!!!

Keep in mind that I am a life long bookkeeper.

I do OLD math. NOT NEW math.

What happened to it? Our elected representatives, whose obvious goal is to deconstruct the United States, knew that the wall would solve the problem of Mexicans flooding into the country. So they defunded it. They WANT Mexicans, and everybody else, flooding into the country. Throughout history, a nation was destroyed by moving the populace out of their country. Now, other nations are brought in. Same outcome — the host nation vanishes. Look at what is happening in Europe, England.

"Like much of what comes out of the Obama administration, that was a lie." ALL of it is. Corrected.

President George W Bush also fought the wall and dragged his feet building it. Note he and the Repulican leadership did nothing to stop Hutchison’s amendment.

Interesting a GOP Senartor from a “conservative” border state took the lead in killing the fence. I don’t recall Texas Governor Rick Perry raising his voice at the time. More evidence there is really little difference between the parties.

We no longer live in a representative Republic.

We now have a democracy.

The oligarch’s plan is working to perfection.

I would hire the Israeli companies who built and oversaw their fence with Egypt to manage the project. They have reduced infiltrations by more than 99%. It’s doable. Many countries have effective fences. Some are quite long.

More to the point, the Corporations and the Bureaucracy want the illegals. Why? The Bureaucracy wants clients for its services, so they can get bigger. The Corporations want the cheap labor. They also know the illegals will need STUFF after they get here. They don’t particularly care how they get the $$ to pay for that stuff (jobs or welfare). The Politicians, of course, want votes.

Who gets screwed? The US taxpayer. No one cares about Him.

The $1.2 BILLION Fence $$ went to the leviathan government....to line the pockets of Kay & Congress.

Enough is enough.

ALL the money to build Congressman Duncan Hunter’s fence was appropriated..

It just never got built but the money was there...

Actually, when the secure fence act came up for re authorization, it died in committee. Additionally, it was stalled by Sierra Club lawsuits and private land owners (like ranchers) who didn’t want the wall going through their property. I’m curious if some of those same private land owners are bitching about illegals coming on their property now. Also, SCOTUS finally ruled that the Sieraa club law suits were BS but by that time, Bush was on his way out the door.

Well, it doesn’t make much sense to continue building a fence when the feds are flying them in from South America.
