Nancy Pelosi Is Spending Shutdown at Hawaii Resort Trump canceled Florida trip for shutdown, went to

And, you support Trump?

Pot meet kettle.

 

Hillary lost. Elections have consequences right?

 

Its true.

 

Glad to see you here.

The air is fresh today.

 

Bad for real humans.

She prevented the mexicans working her vinyards from unionizing, and she'd rather fund latin american abortions than secure the border.

She's mexico's congressman, not mine.

Clap away.

 

I live in Australia...I dont support any US politicians, but I know a pos when I see one...

 

Which news? There are many possibilities of border related news.

 

Are you sure that you mean 33 U.S. Code 2293? You know that this is for the TERMINATION of such projects rather than the initiation of them?

Do you have a link to anything on this or a media article discussing this? Google (from within Australia) only returns one result with the term “state of immigration emergency" in it.

 

So, in your view, the president can declare anything an emergency and allocate funds?

I think we need to do a better job of teaching civics.

 

No it isn't, my best post was deleted and I was infarcted.

 

Really?

 

I don't know the codes by name. I just know there are several, and actual lawyers (not the media talking heads with a JD) say its absolutely doable.

 

Yes. The presumption is that he has access to the most sensitive data and can best decide.

The laws allowing this were passed by democrats after Nixon resigned.

 

in other words, you are talking BS (based on hearsay) that you can't back up with a verifiable source?

Good for you, at least you are admitting (that as of now) you have nothing but hearsay to back up your BS.

And back to Nancy, more power to her.

 

AJ here are some MSM sources for you to review...

White House warns shutdown could carry on after emergency declaration
Trump may tap his emergency powers without reopening the government, a move some allies say could 'screw' Democrats.

What constitutes a National Emergency?
The statutes do not provide any explicit criteria for what type of circumstances qualify as a “national emergency,” so discretion rests solely with the president.

According to the Federal Register, 58 national emergencies have been declared since 1976with 31 still in effect. Some continue export control regulations, enforce economic sanctions or address human rights abuses. President George W. Bush declared a national emergency three days after 9/11 that has been extended annually, including by Trump.

How Trump could use a national emergency to get his border wall, explained
“He has broad leeway to declare an emergency, frankly, whether one exists or not.”

Immigration levels are way down, and a wall--which would not be built for years---isn't an "emergency" response.

The statute requires a "national emergency". It is not unconditional. And we know that government may not behave in an arbitrary and capricious manner.

You put all of that together, and we have injunctions.

Even Bonespurs and his squad of 2nd tier lawyers agree with that.

 

It's Trump's shutdown, Pelosi can't end it, only Trump can

the House already did their part and passed a bill to open the government

 

so quickly they forget

 

Trump's RW Echo Chamber seems to be painfully unaware of how the Government actually works.

 

Open Borders Democrats would even DESTROY border security measures in place?

 

Nobody is in favor of "open borders". You don't do yourself any favors by repeating Bonespurs' idiotic and dishonest talking points.

 

No he's not...

 

Not just MAGA, as I understand it, because the Senate could theoretically override MAGA's veto. So, Turtlehead and friends own this chaos also.

 

Yeah he was.
