How's that wall coming along?......BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

[Spike]

Oh, and Tibs, didn't you mock Trump for promising to destroy ISIS? Yeah, I'm pretty sure you did.

So how is ISIS doing nowadays? You can admit you were wrong. Go ahead.

With the Kenyan terrorist appeaser out and a REAL President in charge, ISIS has disappeared, pounded to dust, just like I perdicted.

 

[Stewey]

Oh no Tibsie PooPoo, see that's a classic example of you being a Libtard and putting words in my mouth. You are jumping to a conclusion. Inferring what you "think" my glee was all about.

Since you brought up being happy.
Libs hate happiness. Once they see you are happy, they know you're not one of them....like socialism, liberalism is the equal sharing of misery.

These ***** exist only to find new things to be pissed about..."microagressions", "white privilege ", blah, blah.

Conservatives having the same income level and socioeconomic backgrounds as libtards tend to be more happier than liberals.
Life can difficult for both conservatives and libtards...except that conservatives understand and accept that life can be tough, whereas libtard pansies think life should never be tough having visions of utopia and free stuff. (paraphrase Dennis Prager)

Conservatives are happy and feel so lucky to be born in the greatest nation on earth, while to leftist scum America remains an illegitimately founded racist country.

Conservatives donate more money and volunteer more time to charities than do libtards.

Liberals talk a compassionate game, but in reality they are nothin more than bleeding heart tightwads.

We don’t need Mexico. At all. For anything.

Mexico is a Narco Terrorist swamp. Drug Cartels run the government, all their leaders are in the cartel's pockets.

WE should move the border south - set up a 10 mile DMZ buffer zone inside Mexico and landmine the **** out of it,

BUILD THAT WALL DONALD J TRUMP!

Mexico would be a good place for those libtards who promised to go to Canada if Trump got elected.
Maybe Canada was too cold.

He did mock Trump. Over, and over, and over, and over. He won't commend his President on a single one of his results. He's just a hate-filled Liberal who will see only negative in Trump. Period.

ISIS ‘Caliphate’ Defeat is Near, Top Pentagon Officials Say

WASHINGTON, April 5, 2018 —
The defeat of the “caliphate” that the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria claimed in Syria is near, top Defense Department officials said at the Pentagon today.

“A lot of great work's been done in Syria,” Marine Corps Lt. Gen. Kenneth F. McKenzie Jr., the director of Joint Staff, said.

Speaking at a news conference alongside chief Pentagon spokesperson Dana W. White, McKenzie noted significant progress, adding that the defeat-ISIS efforts are “very close to reaching an end state against the caliphate.”

“We have always said that our mission in Syria is the defeat of ISIS,” White said. “That is nearly here, but it's not done.”

She reiterated the commitment to defeat the terrorists.

“We continue to be focused on the defeat of ISIS,” she said. “ISIS remains a transregional threat, and the 71-nation coalition that's fighting ISIS is committed to ensuring that we combat violent extremism wherever it is.”

This latest move is looking like not much more than yet another cheap political stunt to appease the restless base. Who of course are falling for it hook, line and sinker, just read the comments on this board.

Reality check on Trump's border war
https://edition.cnn.com/2018/04/06/...ard-border-reality0718AMVODtop&CNNPolitics=fb

Unlike the picture painted by Trump's dire descriptions of caravans of immigrants poised to storm the border, the number of people trying to cross the border illegally last fiscal year was roughly one-third of what it was in 2006, when President George W. Bush called in the National Guard. And there are close to two times as many Border Patrol agents than there were at that time.

Critics of the plan characterize it as a political stunt, an effort to give the appearance of strong border security to appease the President's frustration with the difficulties of getting his border wall and other aggressive immigration priorities through Congress.

In fact, a host of legal restrictions on what troops are actually allowed to do at the border paired with historically low levels of attempted illegal border crossings leave more questions than answers about what the troops at the border will actually be able to accomplish.

Last fall, a Department of Homeland Security report concluded "the southwest land border is more difficult to illegally cross today than ever before."

When Bush deployed troops there were more than 1 million people apprehended at the southern border each year, and roughly 11,000 border agents, according to DHS data. In 2010, when Obama ordered a limited deployment, there were almost 450,000 apprehensions and close to 18,000 Border Patrol agents.

In fiscal year 2017, there were just over 300,000 apprehensions at the southern border and just under 19,500 Border Patrol agents.

Donald Trump would never have won the republican nomination or the election if conservatives were happy. Conservatives used to be rich, fat and happy republicans living in the suburbs. Now they’re angry, working class, living in the middle of nowhere with no economy blaming China, Mexico and minorities for their ****** existence.

 

[Tibs]

I am excited as hell that he's addressing the caravan of illegals coming in.

Oh, the horror! You and Trump clearly draw water from the same well. Read it and weep.

The ‘caravan’ of migrants is not a threat. But Trump would rather ignore real crises.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/opin...5eac230e514_story.html?utm_term=.c56a1efc3879

Hide your valuables! Safeguard your women! Flee for the hills! The Visigoths are at the gates. We’re all doomed!

That, roughly, is the message that President Trump conveyed this week with his incessant tweeting — hysterical, cowardly, inhumane and deranged in equal parts — about the “caravan” of Central American migrants making their way through Mexico toward the United States.

Alerted by those crack intelligence analysts at “Fox & Friends,” Trump began hyperventilating on Easter Sunday. Showing no sign of Christian charity or brotherly love, he wrote: “Border Patrol Agents are not allowed to properly do their job at the Border because of ridiculous liberal (Democrat) laws like Catch & Release. Getting more dangerous. ‘Caravans’ coming. Republicans must go to Nuclear Option to pass tough laws NOW. NO MORE DACA DEAL!”

On Monday he continued: “Mexico has the absolute power not to let these large ‘Caravans’ of people enter their country. They must stop them at their Northern Border, which they can do because their border laws work, not allow them to pass through into our country, which has no effective border laws.....” Later that day: “Honduras, Mexico and many other countries that the U.S. is very generous to, sends many of their people to our country through our WEAK IMMIGRATION POLICIES. Caravans are heading here. Must pass tough laws and build the WALL. Democrats allow open borders, drugs and crime!”

On Tuesday: “The big Caravan of People from Honduras, now coming across Mexico and heading to our ‘Weak Laws’ Border, had better be stopped before it gets there. Cash cow NAFTA is in play, as is foreign aid to Honduras and the countries that allow this to happen. Congress MUST ACT NOW!”

So what is this terrifying “caravan” that necessitates — gasp — tweeting in CAPITAL LETTERS? It turns out to consist of roughly 1,000 migrants, including 300 children and 400 women. They are primarily from Honduras, a tiny country that is afflicted by poverty, corruption, political violence and one of the world’s highest homicide rates. The reason the migrants are traveling together, a New York Times correspondent notes, is “in part for protection against the kidnappers, muggers and rapists that stalk the migrant trail, but also to draw more attention to their plight.”

They are not seeking protection under the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, which few of them have heard of and none of them are eligible for. (DACA covers only immigrants who have lived in the United States since 2007.) Far from allowing the caravan to simply go on its way, Mexico has already deported at least 400 of the participants but is negotiating to allow others to apply for asylum either in Mexico or the United States.

The U.S. Border Patrol has nearly 20,000 agents. Together, they apprehended more than 310,000 people trying to enter the United States last year. It seems safe to say that the Border Patrol will be able to defend American soil from some 1,000 bedraggled refugees even without the help of the armed forces or the erection of a border wall — steps that Trump claims are of urgent necessity.

And what horrors will be visited upon the United States if it were to act with a smidgen of kindness and allow a few of the Hondurans in? We would undoubtedly be getting hard-working newcomers who, like most immigrants, will make our country even greater than it is. Contrary to Trump’s fearmongering, we are not drowning in a sea of illegal immigrants; we are experiencing a net outflow of illegal immigrants from the United States back to Mexico. Trump’s threats — to tear up NAFTA and end aid to Honduras — would actually worsen the problem of illegal immigration by destabilizing Mexico and Honduras.

The president’s message — that just 1,000 refugees pose an existential threat to the world’s sole superpower — is yet another example of the xenophobia he uses to galvanize his white, working-class base. He is showing once again that he lacks both the humanity and perspective that we expect in a president.

Of all the threats in the world, Trump chooses to focus on a few migrants who are, in truth, no threat at all. What is he ignoring? Well, let’s see. A trade war with China that has rattled markets. Russia’s attempted assassinations in Britain. Russian and Iranian war crimes in Syria. The Saudi war in Yemen. The U.S. war in Afghanistan. The Russian invasion of Ukraine. An election in Iraq. Insurgencies in Somalia, Nigeria, Mali, Libya and other countries. Shouldn’t Trump be spending his time cramming for his summit with Kim Jong Un and figuring out what to do about the Iranian nuclear deal — rather than demonizing helpless refugees?

Like many a would-be authoritarian before him, Trump ignores the real threats that his country faces, preferring to manufacture nonexistent crises that enable him to play on popular prejudice to consolidate his own power.

Tibs, you are not being accurate. You just aren't. First, you quoted some source saying,

In fiscal year 2017, there were just over 300,000 apprehensions at the southern border and just under 19,500 Border Patrol agents.

But you fail to note that attempted border crossings HAVE TRIPLED COMPARED TO 2017:

'Illegal' crossing attempts at the US Southwest border triple in March from a year ago

https://www.cnbc.com/2018/04/05/cro...est-border-triple-in-march-from-year-ago.html

I understand that it's easy just to re-post stuff from liberal sites (Vox or whatever), but try to research the information you post before citing it. You will be surprised at how insipid, vapid, stupid, and unreliable liberal news sources are.

Cite the NYT and WSJ. Not CNN, which is an embarrassing clown car of a proto-"news" source now trying to embed a reporter in Stormy Daniels' well-used vagina.

So you would disagree with the statistics that show that we have had a 60% decrease in manufacturing since 1977 with the bulk of those jobs going to foreign countries? Do you also disagree that there are now over 10 fortune 500 companies that have more employees in India than in the US? Like you said, it's not going away.

is that due to the bullshit economics that the previous administration engaged in? i thought for certain we were so prosperous just 2 years ago.

My county has lost 40,000 people since 1980. That's about one-third of the population. I live in the town I grew up in and graduated in a class of over 200 in 1978. Today my old high school graduates less than 50 every year.

Sessions orders 'zero tolerance' policy at Southwest border

Attorney General Jeff Sessions announced Friday he’s implementing a zero tolerance policy for immigrants illegally crossing the Southwest border.

Sessions notified all federal prosecutors along that part of the border of the new policy in a memo Friday and directed them to make prosecuting criminal immigration offenses a priority.

He also directed prosecutors to work with the Department of Homeland Security to develop guidelines for prosecuting offenses under immigration law.

“To those who wish to challenge the Trump Administration’s commitment to public safety, national security, and the rule of law, I warn you: illegally entering this country will not be rewarded, but will instead be met with the full prosecutorial powers of the Department of Justice," he said in a statement.
