The answer is within the classified information that the intelligence community shows leaders in the SCIF.

Whatever it is scares the shite out of them and they become compliant.

The key is that there is no way to challenge the information so that the IC gets the final word.

This is how and why the IC are the real people running the government.

Because the people who own the politicians want cheap labor and want make money off selling war weapons.

Ok. Well the total lack of addressing it by the executive branch, and the legislature's unwillingness to even consider actual solutions indicates to me that none of them give a shite about it.

Because

A. Closing our borders means the cartel stops the payola.

B. Ending Ukraine stops the Defense Contactor and Ukrainian kickbacks.

Can you succinctly explain why 3 times the amount allocated to US border security was allocated to Ukraine border security?

You're being dishonest and leaving out much of the US border security funding, and ignoring the funding requested by the administration and denied by the Republican House.

You're also being dishonest equating a military invasion with an immigrant invasion.

You're agenda is showing.

How about just enforce the law already on the books. Nah. Ignore the law then demand money from the republicans to enact a new law that isn’t as strong as the ones that already exist. The mind of a leftist. Amazing.

At least you’re not being hypocritical unlike your other comrades. I expect to see lots of threads started about how we need to not pass aid for Israel, until the border is fixed and closed.

If you paid attention to the impeachment of Trump, you would already know the answer to this question.

Might be right today, but tens of thousands of, illegal, fifth column Chinese immigrants would like to have a word.

What?

You've done nothing to address my initial post re: the executive and legislative branches are doing absolutely nothing to combat the problem whatsoever. They are, however, falling all over themselves to pump money overseas.

The White House pretending that it needs more money to enforce current law and the Congress putting forward do-nothing bills is not a rebuttal to that point. It supports it.

I didn't have any part in drafting that bill so I can assure you my agenda was not represented.

This is what I responded to:

…as being dishonest.

To address your point:

You’re just being hysterical.

Our southern border has nothing whatsoever to do with Ukraine. Your desire to conflate the two just exposes your agenda.
