    Given the constant contradictions coming from inside Trump Administration, expect Pompeo & Bolton to face tough questioning on Middle East trip. Do they speak for the President? Is US withdrawing/staying/letting Iran do whatever it wants/countering Iran or undecided?

    This shutdown began with Republicans in control of all branches of Government, and after said he would gladly shut it down and that he would own it. There would be no shutdown if not for this President and this GOP leadership. That is the story.

    I honestly thought it would take at least a few days before you started bowing down. When is your scheduled golf outing with trump? Are you and going to take turns kissing his ass or will it just be a barrage of slobbering servility.

    Notice that in the days since Trump said this, there has been no additional information. No actual figures. If true, then why isn't he pushing this "MANY billions" as part of negotiations for funding his wall? Because like everything else Trump, it's bullshit, that's why.

    Since the safety commissions our of Parkland, are now recommending more guns without actually hearing any testimony on it, we must discuss it's cost and the need to pay for it. Time for a protection tax on every gun and every bullet sold in America to pay for our safety.

    Trump swore so frequently during today’s immigration meeting that he ended up apologizing to Pelosi. He griped about impeachment. And he called the shutdown a “strike,” drawing puzzlement in the room.

    While Jared Kushner’s buddy MbS was planning to murder Khashoggi, he was also imprisoning many others, including Fahad and Loujain. They were just young, creative people, trying to make stuff.
