President Trump on Friday issued a proclamation to Democrats on Twitter, warning Democratic leaders in Congress that he would not accept any legislative solution to protect Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program beneficiaries without first getting the funding he needs for his promised wall on the Mexican border.

In the tweet, Trump said that Democrats "fully understand" he will not sign any law granting legal protections to DACA recipients, often called "Dreamers," without funding for Trump's signature promise to secure and build a wall along the U.S.'s southern border.

"The Democrats have been told, and fully understand, that there can be no DACA without the desperately needed WALL at the Southern Border and an END to the horrible Chain Migration & ridiculous Lottery System of Immigration etc," Trump tweeted. "We must protect our Country at all cost!"

Trump's tweet comes after Democrats in Congress faced sharp criticism from immigration activists and progressive groups for not demanding legislative protection for Dreamers in the year-end bill to fund the government. This came they after previously promised to not leave Washington, D.C., for the holidays without a deal.

“We will not leave here without a DACA fix,” House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said earlier in December.

Left-leaning groups like Credo Mobile and Democracy For America issued statements slamming Pelosi and Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) for not securing the provision to protect Dreamers in the spending bill.

“For months, Democratic leaders insisted they would use their leverage in year-end spending bill negotiations to protect Dreamers and reauthorize the Children’s Health Insurance Program, but at the end of the day they let us down and refused to even put up a fight," Credo political director Murshed Zaheed said in a statement.

Recipients of DACA, who are immigrants brought to the U.S. illegally as children, received protection from deportation under the law until the program was ended by Attorney General Jeff Sessions earlier this year.

Oh, it's a border wall and much much more.

MEXICO IS NOT OUR FRIEND...STOP GIVING THEM OUR MONEY AND START TURNING PEOPLE RIGHT BACK AROUND AT THE BORDER!

Ending chain migration is a priority. And doesn't get talked about enough. Easier to say "wall" but in fact we can do just as good border surveillance even without a wall.

I do think we need some wall in certain strategic places, San Diego and the El Paso Sectors for example, probably some others, and those ugly inadequate fences need to be upgraded and replaced with their glaring gaps filled in.

We need a Wall that the pregnant ones and children cannot get over!

We need to slow them down.

We need the wall because we CANNOT trust Mexico now or in the future!

Mexico is a corrupt country...we do not want them sending any more people over OUR border! Who knows what they will do in the future.

Mexico and Central America are run by the cartels. They aren't normal countries. They are black market, violent, criminal countries who cheat at everything. That's why as you say they can not be trusted. I don't think they've always been this way, but they're this way now and have been for more many many years.
