Never forget that Trump saved this country,
he can never do better than he did not
letting Her get elected. We would be
going down the Socialist rathole if
he hadn't won. Three Lib justices in
the first 2 years She would have
appointed because Ginsberg
would have retired. No booming
economy, not rallying market, no
peace with N Korea, no defeat of
Isis. We would be screwed royally.

This is about the 3rd faked attack by
MAGA thugs. It's the Lefties that
are violent and crazy, not the Right.


Keeps happening at many levels. Remember the NAACP officer who claimed the cops were racist towards him, but body cameras refuted it all? And people wonder why I rarely take claims of these people serious.

They've professionalized victimhood. I remember
when it was embarrassing to be the victim of
anybody or anything, it meant you were weak.
Now being a victim is worn proudly, it's a badge
of honor. Sick times we live in when weakness
is hailed as an accomplishment.

Remember that attack on the EMPIRE tv show star allegedly carried out by MAGA supporters...wellllllllllllll

Yea, what I am reading is pretty disturbing
What really makes me angry is this clown wasted the valuable time of the police
The police took it seriously and spent a lot of man hours investigating this

Somehow the media will turn this around on POTUS Trump and say this actor "did what he had to do" in today's America to show how he feels

Can those two guys be charged with anything I wonder? No law against beating a guy up if he asks you to. Looks like when the cops found them they cooperated.

Today is a sad day for America. A direct attack on our constitutional government, enabled by congressional republicans. I will remain conservative, but I'm done with the GOP.
Oh, please. The attack on the Constitution comes from the Democrats who have chosen to support illegal aliens over their own citizens. It is a great day for conservatives, finally someone stands up to the bullies on the left.

Setting aside your characterization of the motivation of congress for setting wall funding at the level that it has, congress chose what congress chose and Trump signed it into law. That is the constitutional appropriations process. Most NE declarations did not appropriate money. While National Emergency declarations have been fairly frequent, most were for sanctions and trade restrictions. Appropriating funds by National Emergency has only been used for conducting combat operations (Desert Storm, 9-11 response). It is an assertion that money must be spent to react to a situation so urgent that time does not allow for congress to deliberate and produce a funding bill, which is absurd considering congress has spent the last several months doing just that. Also consider that the time-critical emergency response is the years-long process of building barriers, beginning with the surveying and forced acquisition of property. That's why I call it an attack on the constitution. It has nothing to do with whether building a wall is the right thing to do.

So GOP congressmen in the house and senate roll over and let the president knee cap their appropriations authority (Rand Paul, Marco Rubio and Susan Collins being the exceptions).

Also when all the intelligence chiefs recently gave their threat assessments they all "forgot" to mention the wall-less southern border.

Haven't heard a single good argument
on why the wall would be the wrong
thing to do. It's a one time deal,
built and you're done. It's effective
at keeping the border secure,
and far cheaper than constantly
paying the manpower it takes.

It was fine when Clinton, Bush,
Obama talked about it. The
crisis is far worse now, makes
you wonder how many people
in congress are on the cartels
payroll. Always follow the money.
