Why didn't you ask Yoder where the funding was when you were on Air Force One with him?

Blasting Dems when only 6 Republicans voted against!

Some of us are onto the games you play.

This bill didn't include funding for any Homeland Security, only Defense, Health and Human Services, Labor and Education. The wall funding of $5 billion thanks to Yoder is in a separate bill that will fund Department of Homeland Security. That's the bill they want to vote on after the mid-terms.

It's my guess the President is angry because the Senate included DHS funding in the continuing resolution (CR) that extends funding for all agencies outside of the Department of Defense, Health and Human Services, Labor, and Education until Dec. 7th.

Sounds like he expected full DHS funding and the border wall money for next fiscal year included in the package. It's my understanding the DHS appropriations bill has already cleared the U.S. House and is sitting in the U.S. Senate .... or has it? I'm still hoping the House removed some of those ridiculous Rep. Yoder supported amendments from the bill!

In an exclusive interview with Hill.TV on Tuesday, Trump hinted that he intends take an executive action on immigration in the coming weeks, though he declined to specify what it might be.

Whatever it is, hopefully it will be useful and more successful than the non-working executive order he signed to end catch & release!

The Democrats won't support more immigration enforcement and wall funding because they want more votes and the Chamber of Commerce supporting Republicans won't support immigration enforcement and wall funding because they want to continue pumping in cheap foreign labor, to include illegals, for business interests!

Keeping the House and gaining more Republicans in the Senate will help on some things, but I'm convinced it will do very little to help fix our immigration problems. To do that we have to replace the foreign labor (cheap labor) supporting Republicans.

There has to be a re-education of American businesses on immigration and the "cheap labor" schtick, much like what Trump has done with the business sector on trade.

Unfortunately, I agree that both parties are to blame. Republican leadership is owned by big business and do not support Trump's claimed positions on immigration.
