    When it comes to radical Islam, a border wall is our last line of defense — not our first. Our first line of defense is a forward deployed presence working with partners to disrupt enemy operations directed at our allies and homeland.

    DACA for wall funding got 54 votes in the Senate -- short of the 60 needed for passage -- after Stephen Miller and WH whipped against it. "As long as Stephen Miller is in charge of negotiating immigration, we're going nowhere," Lindsey Graham said at the time

    The reason the DACA for Wall deal didn’t get done was that a ridiculous court decision from the 9th Circuit allowed DACA to remain, thereby setting up a Supreme Court case. After ruling, Dems dropped deal - and that’s where we are today, Democrat obstruction of the needed Wall.

    Paul is referring to this article:

    Lindsay and I were on the same side on foreign policy for about 5 minutes a few weeks ago, regarding the Saudis. He said it was a sign of “end times”. I guess we are all gonna live a bit longer after all.

    McConnell announces Senate won't be back until Dec. 27th — five days from now. Appears shutdown will last, at least, that long.
