Coalition of Groups Puts Pressure on Schumer, Pelosi to Fund Border Wall


WASHINGTON—On a cold January morning outside the Capitol, a coalition of groups that support Trump had an even colder message for House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) over their refusal to fund a border wall.... “Which one of your children would you be willing to sacrifice?” Amy Kremer, the co-founder of Women for Trump, rhetorically asked Pelosi. “This is not just a manufactured crisis … This is very real.”... With her were more than 20 other Trump supporters, many of them Angel Families who have lost a loved one at the hands of an illegal alien.... “Nancy Pelosi, you’ve got a nice wall around your home. Build that wall for the safety and security of the American people,” said Maureen Laquerre, an Angel sister whose brother was killed in 2009 by an illegal alien driving without a license.... They came to Congress on Jan. 15 to get a meeting with the recently elected speaker and minority leader, who have been in a stalemate with President Donald Trump over the $5.7 billion he wants for a wall on the border with Mexico. Trump has cited human trafficking, illegal immigration, terrorism, and the flow of illicit drugs through the southwest border as the reasons he wants a wall—all concerns shared by those attending the rally.... Also at the rally was former ICE Director Thomas Homan, who addressed speculation about the number of special-interest aliens (SIAs), people who have been flagged because of their travel patterns and behavior, coming through open parts of the southwest border.... Pelosi and Schumer’s offices didn’t respond by deadline to a request for comment on whether the group had called ahead to request a meeting and whether they were denied....

Yet if you view or read the Lame Stream Media, they will try and tell you that America is all for bringing down existing barriers and is not favor of keeping out illegal aliens and stopping Trump at all costs.
Nevertheless the Left and their co-conspiratal media has refused to tell the truth about what's happened and is happening on the border.
Rather give the president funds to build the barriers to keep out the caravans of illegals crossing into the U.S. the Progressive Marxist Socialist Democrat Left is using the issue in a continued attempt to bring down the president and this country.
I recently read that statistics from the Arizona border show that more than 3,000 illegals that crossed the border died in the desert.

Then there's are reports like this ignored by the Left:
Migrant deaths at US-Mexico border increase 17% this year ...
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2017/aug/05/migrants-us-mexico...
Migrant deaths at US-Mexico border increase 17% this year, UN figures show ... More people have died crossing the border from Mexico to the US … UN’s migration agency shows 232 people died in first seven months of 2017
 
This Coalition of Trump Supporting Groups might have accomplished more by meeting with President Chump and Senate Majority Leader McConnell. The House of Representatives has already voted on and passed a proposal to reopen the government; the proposal includes money for Border Security.

Indeed, the Democrat majority Congress passed a Bill to reopen the gov't "House Democrats pass plan to re-open government without funding for border wall." It shows that Democrats are not willing to compromise or discuss funding of the wall logically and have only one goal in mind to stop Trump. They fail to realize that in doing so they hurt the American taxpayer and those federal employees they claim to represent.

You make most of your statements without providing any evidence to validate them. Poll after poll the past three weeks indicate more Americans hold Chump responsible than anyone else for the government shutdown.

You can look for yourself by googling "Who do most Americans hold responsible for shutting down the government?"

On their first day in the majority and the 13th day of the shutdown, House Democrats pass 2 funding bills to reopen the government
https://www.businessinsider.com/house-democrats-pass-two-funding...



In each case there was no funding for the wall. That is the largest sticking point. Put up the funds for the wall/barrier/fence etc., and maybe we'll talk.
As it is today DJT extended an olive branch to Pelosi and the Progressive Marxist Socialist Democrats. Many of the concessions are logical and good for both parties. If they don't accept and try to parse it, the shutdown will continue and the onus is now one the Democrats.

Accepting Google, and the MSM as legitimate evidence and sourcing today is ludicrous.

Come on Doc, please stop dodging the obvious! You know Chump's ability to dictate negotiating terms diminished greatly after the House Gavel changed hands. He had a two year window when the GOP party controlled both the House and the Senate. He missed his window. In December, the Senate, with near unanimity, passed a CR. In a last grasp, before the Gavel switched parties, the House Freedom Caucus with help from Ann Coulter and Rush Limbaugh, prevented the House version from passing.

Pelosi, upon taking power, immediately offered a funding bill that mirrored the CR the Senate had already passed. McConnell refused to consider it.

Your pitch Doc has little to no chance of gaining popular momentum. Maybe the forum provides you a venue to vent? Cheers! Peace to you and yours!

Big Grin! By all means, use whatever search engines and non-MSM sources that suit you. Providing sources, IMO, relates to credibility. I encourage exploring outside a Filter Bubble.
