Remember: him and (especially) the far-right goons want a shutdown. They know Republicans will rightly be blamed in the short-term. But they're willing to accept that, and even worse: they're willing to damage the entire country and weaken our National Security to hurt the economy while Biden is president. That's all this is! Don't let anyone ever forget...
You sound just like Reddit, where EVERYTHING and ANYTHING was the Republican's fault. Republicans want funds to go towards a border crisis that Democrats want to ignore. Democrats want to send BILLIONS to Ukraine, but literally turn a blind eye to what's happening in our own country. Ever since Biden took over, the Democrats have chosen to ignore what's been going on with our immigration issues, literally, they don't want to talk about it or do anything because they don't want to give even the slightest indication that Trump and Republicans have been right all along about having border issues. If we can send billions to another country, we sure as hell can send money to help with our borders.
Living on the border a stones throw from Mexico myself... what border crisis? Care to articulate and provide some citations to back it up?
Dude, Google is your friend...I'm in San Diego...if you don't think this is a big deal to us, you're kidding yourself...unless you live here, you have no idea how crazy this is...
