How the ballooning $22 trillion national debt will affect Americans
"The national debt is no longer a problem that can be ignored. According to the Treasury department, the total public debt crossed the $22 trillion mark on Monday, with some $30 billion in debt added this month alone. When President Donald Trump took office, debt stood just over $19.9 trillion". "Trump had promised to eliminate national debt during his presidency, a pledge he dialed back to “reducing” a chunk. While the national debt took a temporary dip to $19.8 trillion thanks to the debt ceiling, Trump’s decision to raise the debt ceiling in the fall of 2017 caused the debt to hit $20 trillion. Last year, he suspended it until next March 2019. And the debt has been skyrocketing since". http://www.yahoo.com/finance/news/national-debt-effect-americans-223401667.html If you lived through the Reagan years, and willing to admit it, you see what's coming. Recession. Reagan, he knew that the only way to keep us out of a recession was to raise taxes. Which he did. In the end, it didn't help. Our economy took a nosedive just in time for Bill Clinton to step in. Clintons policies pulled us out of a recession and paid off the debt and we had a surplus. Enter Bush. End of surplus. I see the same thing coming again. It will take a Democrat to fix Trumps fu#$ up. We still have plenty of time to pick someone to fix the mess Trump is making. I'm just waiting to see who they pick. When they do, I hope they pick a middle of the road Democrat. We already know what swinging too far right gets us. |

U.S. Congress poised to vote on border measure without Trump wall
"WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. Congress on Thursday aimed to end a dispute over border security with bipartisan legislation that would avert another partial government shutdown but does not give President Donald Trump the money he sought for a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border". http://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-shutdown/u-s-congress-poised-to-vote-on-border-measure-without-trump-wall-idUSKCN1Q30KU House Democrats Are Taking Real Steps Toward Impeaching Donald Trump "Putting aside the disputed allegations in the BuzzFeed story, there are already more than a handful of potential areas of inquiry that carry the hallmarks of impeachable offenses. Trump fired FBI Director James Comey to relieve the “great pressure” of the investigation into whether his campaign conspired with the Russian government to influence the 2016 election. Before that, he asked Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats to intervene to stop the FBI investigation. Trump has also been named as the “Individual-1” in a criminal plea agreement who ordered Cohen to break campaign finance laws". http://www.yahoo.com/huffpost/house-democrats-taking-real-steps-104502824.html |

Rep. Granger: Border deal isn't as much money as Trump wanted, but it's a good down payment
http://www.yahoo.com/news/rep-granger-border-deal-isnt-013856739.html Poor Donald. He didn't even get as much as he would have gotten if he had signed the bill passed by the House & Senate before the shutdown. Pelosi smacked him down pretty hard! This wall is a fantasy of Trump and is never going to happen. Do not blame Democrats. Trump had two years to come up with a plan and he blew it. Probably too much time in front of the TV or golf course. Republicans, you have been had. hook, line, and sinker over and over and over. |

Trump will sign border bill, McConnell says, and declare national emergency
"In a surprise development Thursday, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell announced on the Senate floor that President Donald Trump told him he would sign a border security funding bill that would avert a government shutdown, but also would declare a national emergency in order to get more funding for his proposed border wall. McConnell's announcement came just before a Senate vote on the measure, which the House is scheduled to vote on Thursday evening". http://www.yahoo.com/gma/trump-sign-border-bill-mcconnell-says-declare-national-203007469.html Come 2020 this will be the millstone around Trump's neck. This will keep him from being re-elected. 71% of the country is against Trump's border wall. It will be that 71% that ends his presidency. That's my prediction. We will see in the long run. That will be a hard sell in court. The President would be taking power from Congress against the Constitution. Secondly, he would be going against both parties of Congress that passed this. Thirdly, the border is getting new tech, fences, and boots on the ground, so the "emergency" has already been met. I just don't see any constitutionalist, from either party, being ok with the National Emergency idea. |

I don't know where you are getting your stats from but my my stats say 66% are in favor of a barrier and 21% against.As far as 2020 it's a go and the masses that will turn out in favor of Trump will be astronomical.. With a barrier we would not need as many "boots on the ground"..just remember it was that mockingbird media that led people to believe there was Russian Collusion..which was nothing but lies..and that is proven to be false and yet "some" people still flock back to those same media outlets for their so called Truths again..go figure.. ![]() We are already under many national emergencies right now 30 of them some going back as far as 1979 and still ongoing..Obama declare 9 of them which I believe are still ongoing..so what's one more.. ..WWG1 WGA HERE COMES THE PAIN .Q |

![]() ![]() ![]() Explainer: Trump risks legal fight with emergency threat on wall " WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President Donald Trump will almost certainly face legal challenges over his decision to declare a national emergency to get additional funding for a U.S.-Mexico border wall, circumventing the power of Congress to set spending policy". " Legal scholars say it is unclear how such a step would play out, but they agree a court test would likely focus on whether an emergency actually exists on the southern border and on the limits of presidential power over taxpayer funds". http://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-shutdown-emergency-explainer/explainer-trump-risks-legal-fight-with-emergency-threat-on-wall-idUSKCN1Q333E Trump does and says some really dumbazz things. I've been waiting for him to do the REALLY BIG! dumbazz thing. The one thing that will sink him whether Robert Mueller gets him or not. This may be that one thing I've been waiting for. Something over 71% of the country doesn't want this. The Republicans are always worried about what people will remember and what they will forget come voting time. At least they once did. This is something that 71% will remember. Just like that large amount of people that found out that Trump's new tax plan was going to take their refund away. Plus, make them have to pay. Many Trump supporters are finding out they've been had. Come election day, Well, Right now all I see that can hold back the Democrats from Taking the office of the president back come 2020 is if they pick someone that swings too far left. But, If they pick a middle of the road candidate, Trumps out of a job. Especially if Trump does the ultimate stupid. Makes it through court, and starts taking taxpayer money at will. Declaring an emergency to usurp political power is how dictatorships start. There is a huge difference between what has been done in the past and what Trump wants to do. Specifically, in this case, Congress has debated paying for a wall and declined to make this strictly a run around Congress. We will see. The plot thickens. And the shyt gets deeper. |

"House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, in a joint statement, said the declaration would be a “lawless act” and “gross abuse of the power of the presidency.” "It is yet another demonstration of President Trump’s naked contempt for the rule of law," their statement said, calling it "a desperate attempt to put taxpayers on the hook" for his border wall, adding that Congress "will defend our constitutional authorities". ************************************************************************************* This must be that "pain" I keep hearing about coming. The American people will be taking one more step closer to our country becoming a dictatorship. Trump will be in every American pocket to do with the money as he sees fit. Sound familiar? Putin has "rubbed" off on him. |

Ex-RNC Chair Michael Steele Warns GOP On Trump's Emergency: You Will Rue This
"Former Republican National Committee chair Michael Steele is calling out his own party for enabling President Donald Trump’s reported plan to declare a national emergency to get funding for his border wall. “At the end of the day, this is something Republicans will rue,” Steele said on MSNBC’s “MTP Daily” on Thursday. Steele warned that once Trump declares an emergency to get funding for his wall, a future Democratic president will be able to do the same for any number of other issues. “If any aspect of this is allowed to stand, they have no credence, no authority to criticize any Democratic president who stands up and says, ‘There’s a national emergency on guns and I’m hereby limiting the sale of future arms in this country,’” he said". http://www.yahoo.com/news/ex-rnc-chair-michael-steele-051306136.html This may very well be Trumps biggest fu#@ up to date. If he is allowed to do this, ANY future President will be doing it for any reason they can think of. The taxpayer will become our presidents private piggy bank. |

national emergencies the road to dictatorship?..Perhaps you should go over our history.. and see just how many "dictators" as you called them have declared national emergencies 30 of them which are still in effect..The people have spoken and like I said earlier your stats are off 66% of the people want a barrier.and altho the main stream mockingbird media won't divulge all that is coming through our border..it is the job of our government to do what it can at all levels to protect the citizens of this country..and if they feel that a border wall is part of the solution than so be it.. What would be the problem with that..with a border barrier because what? it funnels people to have to enter through ports of entry legally instead of illegaly..makes no sense why people are in such an uproar over it..So what is the reason that people don't want a border barrier..because it's immoral?..exactly how is it immoral..And what kind of talking point is this "that by Trump declaring national emergency it means that Dems could do so in the future..WHAT? They've declared national emergencies in the past and no matter whether Trump declared a national emergency has no effect on whether they can or cannot do it in the future..She was making a veiled threat aimed at the 2nd amendment..Sounds like once again the Dems/Deep State are BUTT HURT because they are losing BIGLY..get over it..you lost with your Russian Collusion..and FAKE news narrative..and now their PAIN IS COMING as the doors of Gitmo swing open and the Gallows await.. The Dems/Deep State want to attack our constitutional right to bear arms..GOOD LUCK with that..it's just something else that they will lose at...And as far as a dictatorship because of a national emergency..Let me reiterate for the last time..LOOK at your history..WE HAVE DECLARED MANY NATIONAL EMERGENCIES 30 ARE STILL IN EFFECT..are we in a dictatorship..if we are due to a national emergency then we have been in a dictatorship well before TRUMP.. What some don't get is this is a war against the DEEP STATE and they are just using the dem supporters to inadvertently help support their NWO agenda..that's why they don't want the wall. that's why they divide..and that's why they want your guns.. because it makes you weak..because they want open borders and to destroy our sovereignty..morals have nothing to do with a wall.. HERE COMES THE PAIN...to the DEEP STATE |

for the gazillionth time, we do not have and are not advocating for OPEN BORDERS.
When I traveled to Wales, we could literally drive from Wales to England without customs, walls, or any type of barrier or check point at entry. THAT Is an open border between countries. When I travel from Nevada to Ohio, I go through several states without customs, walls or any type of barrior or check point at entry. THAT Is an open border. at both the cross between USA and Canada, and USA an Mexico, there are CUSTOMS, walls, and check points, it is NOT an open border. |

What?..So let me guess this some random check point among miles of an open border does not make it an open border..what? people are crossing illegaly over the Mexican border and the Canadian border every day..seems open to me..bvecause if it wasn't then they wouldn't be able to right..Not to mention how many of them have thousands standing at their border being pushed forward by the UN. .oh yea that's rights some just signed up for the UN migration Pact and flooded their country with immigrants and then put the burden on the tax payers backs..and look at what has happened to those countries..it's what they have in store for us..as the caravans get larger and larger.. So as they do ..are we suppose to just keep putting more and more of our military on our border as the caravan sizes increase..the situation is quite different..The Deep State wants to do all they can to destroy our country,our sovereignty..they don't care who or what is coming over our border...and as we can see the caravans are getting larger every time..We didn't want the UN migration Pact and this is the UN's way of trying to force it on us..BUILD THE WALL |

Thats like saying we have no speed limits because people choose to go faster than whats posted. perhaps we should declare an EMERGENCY around car accidents and invest in recalling vehicles and only producing those that can go UP to the speed limit, so there is NO MORE POTENTIAL breaking of the law? |

two different scenarios..even tho both are breaking the law..so are we suppose to just keep posting more and more of our military to control the law breakers..If there were 12000 people who said they were going to speed at the same time what would you do..put up a road block that's what you would do..in essence build a wall of sorts to prevent it..not to mention it is far easier to control a road then it is a border..and that is why other sources of securing the border will be used in conjunction with the wall..but it would require more and more people if you don't barricade part of the border as the caravans are continuously growing.. What would you do if you knew there was an outside source that told you they are going to send 12000 speeders down the same road at the same time..wait for them to do it and then send 12000 patrol cars to try and catch them..or would you put up a road block to prevent it..throw up some cameras and hope they catch all license plate numbers? problem with that..illegal border jumpers don't have license plates on their azz and can scatter to all points because they are not restricted to just a road..so how are you going to find them all? |

SOMEBODY NEEDS TO DO THE RESEARCH... and I'll clue you in it's not me..and look at what the UN migration Pact is doing to the EU and look at what Agenda 21 is all about..and why is it exactly that the UN is using tax payer dollars to shove all these people up to our border..and while they are at it .. take a look at the uptick in diseases..not to mention the terror cells in Venezuela..So put down the FAKE NEWS and read something that tells the truth for once.. ![]() WHERE'S THAT RUSSIAN COLLUSION ... ![]() ..HERE COMES THE PAIN .Q ..WWG1 WGA |
