its definitely an increased security risk for travelers.

Considering they FAILED over 90% of the tests a while back, it's really no great loss if the TSA never comes back. These days, a terrorist should worry more about the PASSENGERS than an arrest. Because folks, we're going to simply kill anyone who tries it, even with our bare hands.

That aside though, it's funny that folks blame Trump for the shutdown.

He's really done NOTHING here. CONGRESS is the one who shut it down. NO BILL has come to the President's desk for signing. Trump's ONLY action so far in this, is to THREATEN a veto if it doesnt' include the wall.

What this means, is that anyone blaming Trump really lacks the understanding of WHY the government is shut down, and HOW the process works. This is completely on CONGRESS' lack of being able to compromise, despite Trump offering Pelosi's team plenty of face-saving outs.

The Trump campaign really needs to be sure to get this message out, but MSM is still putting the blame squarely (and unfairly) on Trump for this. This entire bit is all Pelosi's burden to bear (in reality)....even though it's Trump's (in the press).
 
Last week they find enough fentanyl to kill 57 million people. How is that not an emergency?

If it was another substance or maybe bombs, would that qualify?

Robin, I saw that. How crazy are the 10's of millions of drug addicts in the US? They really don't care if they live or die, they just want their next high. So sad. And all the families that implode trying to save them from themselves.

The amount needed to kill a person is equal to about 10 grains of sand. Put in in the water system and you wipe out millions in no time at all.

Stroke city. It's time for the Dems to get a new leader. Nancy is ill.

Also, so you think any Dems will wake up? She and Chucky said they would negotiate after gov't wad back up and running. She has no plans to negotiate.

I hope he takes the SOTU as his chance to totally blast all of them with the facts. Bring up RBG too. Pull out all of the liars from the CIA and FBI, Brennan, Comey, Strzok, Page, etc.

I watched the video. I don’t think she has had a stroke. To me it seems like she is flustered. Maybe because she is under a lot of stress and pressure?
If that’s the case, I am glad she is feeling it.

It happens quite often with Nancy. She must be really frustrated. She needs to move on.

Nancy is (has?) losing her mind & faculties. Her internal demons/evil are losing their makeup & we are seeing the real Nancy. I do not think she will ever recover.

And I think Robin is 100% right on target. The cartel OWN the democrat party, and probably a number of (R)'s. Where do you think Nancy got her $100+million fortune, let alone what she's spent on herself over the decades?
 
So what are your opinions on today's news.

People are acting like Presidents have never declared an emergency before. The forget Obama used it for DACA.

I believe it has been used 31 times since implemented in the 1970s.
 
"Breaking" news is that Trump will both take the 'deal' and declare the national emergency.

I'm ok with this. BECAUSE I know Trump has a strategy. And he has a plan B / C / D. I don't have to know them, just that Trump is smart enough to do this. El Chapo money. Get the military to do it. Too bad he couldn't tie the two together. IOW, if there is a legal challenge that stops his emergency declaration, then by default the funding deal is stopped and gov't returns to 'shutdown' mode.

Don't forget that in 2 short weeks the national debt limit "hits the wall" (like that play on words?). They have had limitless debt spending until 3/1/19. That will be a REAL gov't shutdown if not resolved. Trump can use that for leverage as well.

So it boils down to "trust the negotiator".
 
Honestly, I could care less about that wall. But, he's already saved well over the $5 billion he asked for, and Congress is just being petty. And THAT's the kind of BS I'm more concerned with.
 
So, the Dems were elected in the House, and what are the first things they propose? More pointless (and at our expense) investigation of the President, and a ridiculous Green Deal, that even the most ardent SJW thinks is impossible (once they bother to know what's really in it). Not to mention the price tag of it equaling the current national debt.

And yet, the morons who elected these numbskulls are proud of themselves. We are truly doomed folks.
 
Shut it down. Only this time don't bring the slackers back. Most government "workers" are useless bums anyway.
But that's not the way it'll work. The Socialist Party (AKA Dems) know that Republicans always roll over and give in. They just have to be patient.
