One sticking point has been Democrats' demands for funding fewer detention beds for people detained by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) than the Trump administration seeks. Republicans want to increase the number as part of their drive to speed immigrant deportations.

Shelby said talks were suspended over the issue but he hoped negotiators would come back to the table soon.

"I am hoping we can get off the dime later in the day or the morning," he said. "We have some problems with the Democrats dealing with ICE detaining criminals ... They want a cap on them. We don't want a cap on that."


WHAT THE frick.....who puts a cap on something like that??

There is no arguing: Democrats want FEWER beds so MORE migrants are released into the United States.

Just executive order border security and get it over with.

Make no mistake about it, Democrats will executive order whatever they can to accomplish their goals.

Ok, the women and children get the beds and the men can sleep on the floor.

Again, the goal of the left is to create a crisis, then create the solution, while using the press and useful idiots to fault their opposition.

This will also help with the "child separation" crisis they are pushing at the border too. Less beds = more propaganda they can push.

These people are pure evil, and their supporters LOVE it.

CNN and MSNBC will run with the headline "Democrats refusing to give immigrants warm beds"

Just you wait

They won't need as many beds once the wall is up

Such transparency of motive.

Thankfully, we have a media that will call them to account.

This actually makes sense. With a full border wall, ICE shouldn’t need as many beds because illegal crossings would drop.

So - sure. Less beds for more walls.

At this point I’m sick of it. Declare a National Emergency and just fight through all the court orders. These Dems are completely unreasonable on this issue. They are deranged.

Clearly they want them to stand instead of have the dignity of a proper bed.

And bring the Federal government to a grinding halt and keep closed until wall is completed, no back pay either. This foolishness needs to come to an end.

Beginning today it needs to be broadcast on TV that the Dems have gotten their govt reopened on 01/28, have refused to negotiate as they promised, and they only have a few more days to give the 5.7 billion until the govt is shut until they give it.

Everyday you give a countdown, names of who voted for it prior, and that a CR is not acceptable.

You put high level border control management on TV with you explaining what they see.

You remind that cuts to Homeland security makes the country less safe.

You remind people of what libs really want in this “Green New Deal”.

You spank these petulant children and their mentally retarded IQ level base.

After which, liberal organizations will start encouraging more caravans to flood the system.

Can any of you Dems please explain to me why you want more illegal immigration? Why is there such a divide over something where there should logically be no divide? We should be putting more focus into LEGAL immigration not doing everything we can to encourage ILLEGAL immigration.

Before anyone tells me to have some compassion, explain me where the compassion is when our current policies encourage people to risk life and limb trekking thousands of miles at the mercy of coyotes and sex traffickers to get here. Where is the compassion in encouraging families to send their kids thousands of miles in the care of criminals often with nothing more than a relatives phone number once they reach the border? It’s not compassion, it’s damn near criminal what we are doing? The same idiots who support this wouldn’t allow their young kids to walk a mile or two down the road and if they did, they’d be arrested for child endangerment before the sun went down.
