President Donald J. Trump’s Plan to Reopen the Government and Fund Border Security Immigration Issued on: January 19, 2019 To every member of Congress: Pass a bill that ends this crisis. To every citizen: Call Congress and tell them to finally, after all of these decades, secure our border. This is a choice between right and wrong, justice and injustice. This is about whether we fulfill our sacred duty to the American citizens we serve. Donald J. Trump President of the United States PRESIDENTIAL LEADERSHIP: President Donald J. Trump is showing strong leadership by working with Congress to find a solution to reopen our government and secure the border. The President is solving the decades old problem of border security. The negotiation team tasked by President Trump has been working with Republicans and Democrats to find a compromise to reopen the government while providing border security. The President is bringing together the best ideas from both sides to come up with solution to a complex problem. RESPONSIBLE GOVERNMENT FUNDING: The bipartisan and common sense legislation proposed by President Trump will reopen our government and secure the border. $5.7 billion to fund a steel barrier system, including embedded investments in technology and roads, on our southern border in the priority areas cited by Border Patrol. This is in addition to the more than 115 miles of barriers already built, replaced, or contracted under President Trump. $805 million for technology, canines, and personnel to help stop the flow of illegal drugs, weapons and other contraband. This includes: $675 million for drug detection inspection technology to help secure our ports of entry. $130 million for canine units, training, personnel and portable scanners to help deter and detect smuggled narcotics, weapons, and other dangerous materials. $800 million dollars in humanitarian assistance, medical support, and new temporary housing. $782 million to hire an additional 2,750 border agents, law enforcement officers, and staff. $563 million to support our immigration court system, including hiring 75 new immigration judge teams to reduce the immigration court backlog of 800,000 cases. BIPARTISAN SOLUTION: As part of President Trump’s willingness to compromise to reopen the government, he is proposing to grant provisional status to current DACA and Temporary Protected Status (TPS) recipients. Provisional status will be granted for three years for current DACA recipients, covering 700,000 illegal immigrants brought here by their parents at a young age. This status will give them access to work permits, social security numbers, and protection from deportation. Provisional status will be granted to certain current TPS recipients for three years, providing 300,000 immigrants whose protected status is facing expiration more certainty as Congress works on a larger immigration deal. IMMEDIATE CRISIS: President Trump’s proposal would solve the immediate security and humanitarian crisis at our southern border, but would not solve all of our immigration challenges. America faces an immediate humanitarian crisis from our unsecured border. According to a 2017 Doctors Without Borders Report, more than 30 percent of women are sexually assaulted on the trek to the border. On average, the United States Border Patrol refers approximately 50 individuals to a hospital or medical provider, including children who cross the border in need of medical attention. The number of families and unaccompanied children crossing the border illegally has grown dramatically in recent months. This past December, Border Patrol apprehended 32,284 families and unaccompanied children. Just six months prior, Border Patrol apprehended only 13,164 families and unaccompanied children. The country still faces serious immigration issues that need a permanent solution, including interior enforcement, asylum reform, worksite verification, the 11 million people living in the country unlawfully, and moving toward a merit-based immigration system. Once the government is open and the immediate crisis is addressed, President Trump will hold weekly bipartisan meetings to reform our immigration system. https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing...-plan-reopen-government-fund-border-security/
Ooh, this seriously conflicts with Gallup. On the one hand we have Gallup and on the other hand we have the highly touted Fox News. Who to believe, who to believe. https://www.upi.com/Poll-Most-Americans-against-constructing-more-border-walls/7871529536373/
I guess in the San Antonio area he's planning on a wall 150 miles thick. That ought to stop immigrants. I don't know if tax payers now want to spend $500 Billion but hey it's a starting point.
Hey, Global Warming is already here, dumbshit Trump. Sea levels have already risen except you're too damn dumb to notice. Wait 'till this summer when you'll see more evidence of Global Warming. You think droughts and forest fires are declining. OMG, he's dumb.
Trump is in a pickle. If he doesn't get his Wall, he's a goner. Pelosi and the Democrats are not giving him one penny for a stupid Wall. Conclusion - For multiple reasons, he's a goner.
So, he wants a permanent waste of taxpayer money for a three year deal on DACA that should have been made permanent long ago. Bye bye, Donald. Good riddance to bad waste.
Talk about exposing your corruption to the public. When you're in the pockets of local landowners who are using their borderlands to smuggle humans for slave labor and prostitution and drugs for a highly-profitable living, you oppose the wall as you have been ordered to. Drain the swamp.
The Lincoln memorial cost $3 Mil. Thats about $40 Mil in today's dollars. Trump wants us to spend $40 BILLION on a monument to him. That doesn't include the cost of moving the White House to the border so Trump can wander out every night and piss on it like a senile old cur marking his territory.
https://www.foxnews.com/us/illegal-...g-spree-was-from-el-salvador-according-to-ice Illegal immigrant linked to Nevada killing spree was from El Salvador A teen suspected of killing four people in northern Nevada this month entered the U.S. illegally from El Salvador, federal immigration authorities said Tuesday. Wilbur Martinez-Guzman, 19, has been jailed in Carson City, Nev., since Saturday, when he was picked up on an immigration violation. ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT EXPECTED TO FACE MURDER CHARGES IN NEVADA KILLING SPREE Immigration and Customs Enforcement said Tuesday that the teen had no criminal record or history of previous immigration violations, KTVN-TV reported. President Donald Trump seized on the killings as evidence of the need for a wall he has proposed building on the border separating the U.S. and Mexico. "Four people in Nevada viciously robbed and killed by an illegal immigrant who should not have been in our Country," Trump said Monday evening in a tweet. "We need a powerful Wall!" Martinez-Guzman is due in court Thursday in Carson City for an arraignment on charges of burglary, possession of stolen property and obtaining money by false pretenses, the station reported. He could also face murder charges later this week. Prosecutors in the Nevada counties of Washoe and Douglas are preparing those cases.. "A conviction for these crimes is our highest priority," the station quoted Washoe County District Attorney Chris Hicks as saying. Gerald David, 81, a former Reno rodeo boss, and his wife Sharon David, 80 were shot and killed in their homes during burglaries. Investgators believe the victims , were found dead Jan. 16 in Reno. Connie Koontz, 56, was found dead Jan. 10 in Gardnerville, where Sophia Renken, 74, was also found dead three days later.
Peanuts. You want a TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS MONUMENT to a President? Obamacare. https://www.atr.org/obamacare-still-raises-debt-trillions
Obama also owns the record for most money stolen from Social Security. For example, the Social Security Trust Fund has run a surplus since 1987. There were more working people contributing via payroll taxes than retired people withdrawing benefits. The Fund invests its surplus in U.S. Treasury notes. The president can reduce the deficit by spending these funds instead of issuing new Treasurys. As a result, Obama added $8.588 trillion to the debt. https://www.thebalance.com/national-debt-under-obama-3306293

Mexico screening for criminals in latest migrant caravan; Salvadoran gang member wanted in murder is nabbed By Griff Jenkins, Frank Miles | Fox News Migrant caravan from Honduras crosses into Mexico after gates were left open Mexican officials say they're actively screening for criminals and gang members in the latest migrant caravan to head north toward America — and apprehended an 18th Street gang member from El Salvador in Tapachula, who was traveling with the caravan. The gang member was identified as Amílcar Orlando “N,” and was caught by the Chiapas prosecutor’s office with the aid of El Salvador’s government, officials confirmed to Fox News. Tapachula is a city in the far southwest of the state of Chiapas in Mexico near the Guatemalan border. He is wanted on charges of aggravated murder, kidnapping, extortion, gang membership and drug possession. He tried to sneak in as a migrant along with the caravan, is being deported. The two main street gangs of El Salvador, 18th Street and MS-13, are estimated to number around 70,000, and actively try to recruit new members. The gangs trace their origins to street life in cities such as Los Angeles, where many Salvadorans sought refuge during their country’s 1980-92 civil war. Salvadorans arrested for crimes in the U.S. were deported, bringing gang activity with them. Some crime experts said today’s gangs have ties to international drug trafficking networks. President Trump frequently seizes on MS-13 as a reason to tighten immigration controls. The migratory trail north from Mexico and the violent Northern Triangle region of Central America are perilous. Criminal gangs control much of the route and prey upon migrants, who are often stigmatized and face discrimination as they travel as much as 3,000 miles. https://www.foxnews.com/world/mexic...adoran-gang-member-wanted-in-murder-is-nabbed

Since 1993 the sea levels have risen at about twice the rate of what it was before 1993. If that continues it is said that many cities on the east coast will be under water by 2100.
