    Overheard: “Funny how we never managed to fund the wall in the two years when Republicans controlled all the levels of government, but it’s critical that it be done right now or no one gets paychecks.” h/t @marklemley on FB.

        It's in line with DJT's "genius" negotiating strategy, unless he has something to hold hostage, he has nothing at all, so take 'em to the brink and see who blinks first.

        A question. Trump wants the wall (and the money for it) in order to be able to close the border. And has threatened to close the border if he doesn't get the money. Yes? But if he can close the border, why does he needs the wall? Or am I somehow missing some steps in the logic?

        Well, not everyone in government is hurting. It seems that Cabinet members, including the VP are getting a pay raise January 5th.

        It's ridiculous that they can give themselves raises but block raising the minimum wage for the people that put them there to begin with.

        This is OUR money being kept from those employees over a temper tantrum and political stunt to appease conservative gas bags like Limbaugh and Coulter. It should come out of the salary of Con Don and all his fellow blackmailing klan.

        It's also funny how such a large number of Democrats voted for a border wall and tough immigration policies in the past, but they are completely changing their game now that it's President Trump who is pushing for a border wall and tougher immigration policies.
