    Incorrect, but I note that you didn't deny that Trump is a liar of epic proportion.

    Pelosi and her racist Dems just turned down ANOTHER deal from Trump to extend Obama's illegal DACA program, denying millions of illegal aliens their only hope to remain in America and apply for citizenship.

    2 years of racist obstruction from the hateful, manipulative left.

    How many lies did they commit to get their 62 Pulitzer prizes?
    Now, let's compare that with the Pulitzer prizes won by Fox News.

    Trump already rejected that deal. So, now he's decided he was wrong?

    Dems prove they want to keep illegals illegal, keep Trump from succeeding in improving America, keep the deep state and 1%ers in power, keep Americans in poverty and under their thumbs.

    Pelosi’s False ‘Wall Street’ Denial
    By Brooks Jackson

    House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi said in a nationally televised town meeting on Jan. 31: “No, we [Democrats] don’t get much support from Wall Street.” That’s not so.

    Democratic House and Senate candidates pulled down nearly $47 million from bankers, stockbrokers, hedge fund officials, venture capitalists and private equity firms in the last election alone, according to tallies by the Center for Responsive Politics.

    To be sure, Republican congressional candidates got more — $62 million. But Democrats still received 43 percent of the Wall Street money going to congressional candidates.

    <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/w8r6Z5EdWa4" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

    Pelosi’s denial of reality came in response to a comment made at the CNN town hall event. Questioner William Marsh, a steel-company executive, suggested that blue-collar, Midwestern “Reagan Democrats” had abandoned the party because they believe it no longer represents their values.

    William Marsh, Jan. 31: A lot of these workers feel that the core interest groups of the party do not represent their values. For example, the abortion rights activists, the environmental activists, Wall Street, Wall Street lawyers.

    Pelosi: Wall Street?

    Marsh: Yes, a lot of Wall Street supports the Democrat Party now and not the Republican Party.

    Pelosi: They don’t support me. …No, we don’t get much support from Wall Street.

    To check Pelosi’s claim, we turned to the Center for Responsive Politics, which tracks campaign money and categorizes it by industry. We selected totals for commercial bankers and for securities and investment firms (which include hedge funds, private equity firms and venture-capital firms) as falling under the general heading of “Wall Street.” The donations can come from individuals, political action committees, or both.

    Money to Congress 2015-2016
    From PACs and individuals giving $200 or more

    Dems GOP
    Securities and Investment $38,093,552 $45,580,505
    Commercial Bankers $8,838,485 $16,781,262
    TOTALS $46,932,037 $62,361,767
    Perhaps Pelosi doesn’t consider $47 million to be “much,” but it’s more than the $44 million that Democratic congressional candidates received during the same period from labor union PACs and officials.

    And it doesn’t stop there. The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee — a party organization devoted to electing and re-electing Democrats to the House — received $4,799,059 from securities and investment firms and their employees in the last election. And the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee got $6,676,941 from the securities and investment industry, making it the fourth largest industry source for the DSCC, according to the Center for Responsive Politics’ tallies.

    ‘They Don’t Support Me’
    As for Pelosi’s claim that Wall Street donors “don’t support me,” those in the securities and investment industry actually have contributed more than $1 million to her re-election campaigns since 1989, the third highest total from any industry group, according to the Center for Responsive Politics.

    And it’s still coming in. Her 2016 re-election campaign received $83,280 from securities and investment firm PACs and employees, and $20,930 from commercial bankers, for a total of more than $104,000.

    In addition, Pelosi’s personal PAC — “PAC to the Future” — took in $44,500 from securities and investment sources, and $13,500 from commercial bankers.

    Chancy Schumosi totally exposed themselves as TDS obstructionists by refusing to listen [​IMG] to the head of DHS relate the facts and figures on the human suffering they have caused to illegal immigrants and those seeking to immigrate legally.

    Acted like rude, spoiled children and blew their best chance at saving face by negotiating in private.

    President Trump made them sit in the corner until Friday, and if they haven't grown up by then he may have to take a switch to their behinds.

    Shirked their sworn duty to make knowledgeable decisions only after gathering all the facts and determining how their decision will impact American Citizens.

    Showed voters they are simply obstructing as they have for 2 years. They will accomplish nothing for Americans while in office, drawing millions of dollars in pay from taxpayers.

    Mayor of a Mexican town is assassinated just 90 MINUTES after being sworn into office

    Adry Torres For Dailymail.com
    5 hrs ago

    [​IMG]© Provided by Associated Newspapers Limited Alejandro Aparicio Santiago was assassinated New Year's Day, just ninety minutes after he had been sworn as mayor of the indigenous Mexican town of Tlaxiaco in the state of Oaxaca A mayor in central Mexico was shot dead just 90 minutes after his New Year's Day oath of office ceremony.

    Alejandro Aparicio Santiago had just been sworn in the indigenous town of Tlaxiaco in the state of Oaxaca on Tuesday morning when two men approached started shooting at him and three other politicians.

    Aparicio Santiago was traveling to the a meeting a city hall at 11.30am when he was attacked by the two gunmen, according to the state prosecutor's office.

    Villagers quickly jumped into action and apprehended one of the suspects, who has not been identified.

    They beat the suspect and detained him before police officers arrived.

    Law enforcement is still searching for the second suspect in the town of 40,000 residents.

    The wounded mayor was immediately transferred to a hospital wing of the Mexican Social Security Institute where he died from the gunshot wound he suffered in his chest during the brazen attack.

    Representative Perfecto Hernandez Gutierrez, who was shot during the alleged assassination plot, was pronounced dead early Wednesday morning at a local hospital.

    Councilwoman Cleotilde Santos and another politician were also shot but their medical conditions are unknown.

    According to Mexican news outlet Excelsior, Aparicio Santiago is the sixth politician that has been assassinated during the last semester, dating back to the July 1, 2018 elections.

    Councilwoman María Ascension Cruz Torres, 55, was shot three times Sunday morning, 48 hours before she was expected to be sworn into office.

    [​IMG]© Provided by Associated Newspapers Limited Aparicio Santiago (right) gives a speech moments before he was assassinated on the day he was officially named mayor She was later declared dead at a hospital in the south-central Mexican state of Morelos.

    Their deaths raises the number of politicians aligned with President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador's Morena political party to five since July 1.

    According to Morena Party chairwoman Yeidckol Polevnsky, 152 public officials were assassinated during the 2017-2018 electoral period.

    'It saddens me that these events have happened,' President Lopez Obrador said.

    'They are cowardly acts.'

    The New Year's Day tragic event took place just two weeks after Juarez mayor Olga Kobel, 42, was kidnapped and assassinated just five months after she had won her town's election.
