Sen. Richard Shelby, the chairman of the Senate Appropriations Committee and a key negotiator in the bipartisan border security conference committee, revealed Sunday that talks between Republicans and Democrats on the border wall have "stalled." Aside from the total amount to spend on walls, Shelby said another point of contention was the number of beds available to Immigration and Customs Enforcement [ICE] for the detention of criminals caught at the border.

"I think the talks are stalled right now. I’m hoping we can get off the dime later today or in the morning because time is ticking away, but we’ve got some problems with the Democrats dealing with ICE, that is detaining criminals that come into the U.S., and they want a cap on them. We don’t want a cap on that," Shelby said on 'Fox News Sunday.'

"We haven't reached a number on the barrier yet, but we are hoping we can get there. We've got to start movement," he warned ahead of the Friday deadline to avoid a second partial government shutdown.

Why would you want to cap the number of criminals you keep away from the public?

bullshite. They never stalled because Democrats were completely closed minded and it never really started. They purposely came up with an outlandish proposal to say "they met across the aisle." That was the extent of it. They wanted the moon from the President and they were going to give him dust in return. Their negotiations have nothing to do with BP... it's about their hatred for Trump.

Why did President Obama allow these vicious POS in?

who the heck said they were registered voters? one does not need to register to vote. it's part of the reason why they've dug in so hard on voter ID checks.

Predictable. The Dems will die on the hill over this one out of principle.

Shame on President Trump for putting us all at risk during this national emergency while these idiots are jerking each other off in the woods at Camp David.

Considering we’re clearly in a national emergency, is President Trump in dereliction if his duty by not declaring it and building the wall ASAP?

The next Mollie Tibetts is on President Trump’s hands.

1) A true national emergency would inspire either bipartisan support or bipartisan apathy

2) If it truly is an emergency then he is in dereliction if his duty to protect us by not declaring it so and taking appropriate measures to bring the emergency to an end.
