    So what?
    Yes, you did. You offered a solution that is no solution at all. Here's why:
    You have all these people coming here for a better life and your solution is to close the door in their face. No room in the inn. What does that solve? What of those people?
    Yes, you've proven you don't care about people but is that really a "solution"?
    Which is where most are.....despite what right wing media says.
    Here's something you will never see. Elon Musk, winner of the Nobel Peace Prize.
    False
    What a great theory!!! What's Hunter's cut?!!

    From your article:
    "Q2: Did all $113 billion go to Ukraine?

    A2: No, it is important to note that not all of this funding has gone to Ukraine. A good proportion of this funding is being spent in the United States, or on U.S. personnel. For example, across the four supplementals, over $421 million has been spent across military services on salaries for U.S. troops that are preparing to be or currently deployed in Europe. Additional funds have been appropriated for salaries and expenses at departments across the federal government, including the Justice, Treasury, and Energy Departments for activities such as sanctions enforcement and war crime investigations."

    Republicans are using the border as a political football for decades. They don't give a crap about who comes in. Trump didn't do a damn thing with both houses so, please. face the reality of the situation and stop complaining. There is a bipartisan bill, embrace it.

    I don't recall any bill from Republicans to address this for decades.
    Another non issue of Republican media. Has it happened? Yes. Is it a serious problem? No
    That's called freedom of speech. Freedom is tough. You have to love it to put up with it.
    More people in jails than any other country. What's wrong with this picture?
    I do. You don't have a grasp on what's going on in reality here. Most, if not all, of your "problems" are political and not practical. Most, if not all, people go about their lives day after day no differently than last year, or the year before. I could go on but you get the idea.......I think.

    Didn't he keep his campaign promise? You seem to think so. Did Trump? Did he build a wall? Did Mexico pay for it? Did he do ANYTHING? He "lucked out" because of his total ineptness' with the pandemic.

    You think that, because I don't reduce everything to a one-liner for you.

    No. It's because you don't understand the issues, so the message becomes garbled when you try posting about them.

    Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986 - Wikipedia

    Yes, Biden kept his campaign promise which was to allow 2 million illegals into the country every year.

    How many times did libs obstruct, sue and block the wall? Tons.

    Conspiracy theories to make a point is not a good argument.
    Biden only had to get rid of 1 trump EO, the pandemic induced keeping migrants in Mexico.
    The USSC, I think, ruled it had to end.

    Congress controls immigration laws, along with the USSC and constitution.
    The Senate Bill Biden wants will give all presidents more power to deal with border.

    Now, their hands are tied.

    So, you can't answer the question on what EO Biden could sign today.
    So, why not be in favor of this bill, it will give all presidents more EO power to address border.

    Why do you refuse to answer?

    Did they?
    For so many times it would seem to be easy to provide at least one and strange since Republicans had the Presidency, Senate and House. Very strange. One would think with all three the cornerstone of his campaign would have been easy to fulfill.

    Here's just one link. Do you think the GOP took this to court? Environmentalists also sued to stop the wall. And of course, EVERY democrat was against the wall. Do you recall how the left said there is no wall Trump can build that they can't tear down? I do. Strange how there were no calls from the left to 'compromise' back then.

    Ninth Circuit Blocks Construction of Trump’s Border Wall
    The Ninth Circuit on Friday ruled that President Donald Trump's allocation of military funds for construction of his border wall was illegal, upholding a December 2019 ruling from a federal judge.

    He could shut down the border right now if he so wished it.

    This bill is bullshit.

    Good try, I'll give you that.
    The SCOUS was made in 2020. My point was that he didn't do anything and he didn't. The article you linked to was because he was trying to take funds from other agencies because he couldn't get it done.
    The main point is Trump is a failure. A joke. A con man. That's all he is.
    Face it.

    Did you want the wall to be built, or were you among the crowd that didn't?

    Biden is a proven liar who will never honor any agreement to close the border.

    As the saying goes, fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice shame on me. No one should trust anything Biden and company promises when it comes to securing the border. Why is no one able to read the Bill?
