There has never BEEN a House bill that funds one cent for the fucking wall. Maybe you should ask your hero and the party he's supposed to be head of why they didn't bother with the absolutely necessary wall while they had complete control of the government?
The house did pass a spending bill with wall funding this December. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.breitbart.com/politics/2018/12/20/house-passes-spending-bill-with-wall-funding/amp/
The Senate could have easily voted on it if it reached 60 votes, and the Democrats such as Chuck Schumer got in the way by preventing the 60 votes from passing. That led to the shutdown.
Oh, right, I forgot about the Republican last minute "We're going to force this fucking thing in your face, and you can't do anything about it!" adjusted spending bill. That had multiple bribes in the form of "disaster relief funding" in a desperate attempt to get REPUBLICANS to fucking vote for it... Because they couldn't even rely on THEM to vote for this disaster.
And this works both ways. The Senate passed a funding bill to the House that had all the needed votes to get it passed; then Trump threw his temper tantrum and the House refused to vote on it. And sorry, but I'm not going to point fingers at the Democrats for refusing to vote for a bill the Republicans had once again rewritten at the last minute.
the "Planned Parenthood murders infants and sells body parts" liefest.
They admit to performing abortions and using accepting donations of fetal tissue. https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.cnn.com/cnn/2015/07/15/health/planned-parenthood-undercover-video/index.html
Wrongo:
https://www.factcheck.org/2015/07/unspinning-the-planned-parenthood-video/Republicans made their claims following the release of a secretly recorded video showing Deborah Nucatola, the senior director of medical services at Planned Parenthood, discussing the procurement of fetal tissues when conducting abortions. The edited video, released July 14 by an anti-abortion group called the Center for Medical Progress, leaves the impression that Nucatola is talking about Planned Parenthood affiliates making money from fetal tissue. But the edited video ignores other things Nucatola said that contradict that idea.
At one point in the unedited video (which was also released by the group), Nucatola says: “Affiliates are not looking to make money by doing this. They’re looking to serve their patients and just make it not impact their bottom line.”
Nucatola also says, “No one’s going to see this as a money making thing.” And at another point, she says, “Our goal, like I said, is to give patients the option without impacting our bottom line. The messaging is this should not be seen as a new revenue stream, because that’s not what it is.”
The footage was recorded secretly during a lunch meeting on July 25, 2014, between Nucatola and two people posing as employees of a company looking to procure fetal tissue for research purposes.
Oh, BTW, before you start screaming "Fake News!", you probably ought to know this too:
https://www.nytimes.com/2016/01/26/us/2-abortion-foes-behind-planned-parenthood-videos-are-indicted.htmlA grand jury here that was investigating accusations of misconduct against Planned Parenthood has instead indicted two abortion opponents who made undercover videos of the organization.
Prosecutors in Harris County said one of the leaders of the Center for Medical Progress — an anti-abortion group that made secretly recorded videos purporting to show Planned Parenthood officials trying to illegally profit from the sale of fetal tissue — had been indicted on a charge of tampering with a governmental record, a felony, and on a misdemeanor charge related to purchasing human organs.
That leader, David R. Daleiden, 27, the director of the center, had posed as a biotechnology representative to infiltrate Planned Parenthood affiliates and surreptitiously record his efforts to procure tissue for research. Another center employee, Sandra S. Merritt, 62, was indicted on a felony charge of tampering with a governmental record.
The record-tampering charges accused Mr. Daleiden and Ms. Merritt of making and presenting fake California driver’s licenses, with the intent to defraud, for their April meeting at Planned Parenthood in Houston.
They're still against involvement in foreign wars. They're just smart enough to realize that walking out of a conflict YOU started halfway through doesn't help anybody. It allows ISIS to recover. It allows Assad to regain control with the assistance of the Russians, so he can get back to his campaign of murdering anyone in Syria who isn't 100% behind him. It allows Turkey to murder the Kurdish rebels the US was trying to help, who BTW have been betrayed by the US multiple times in the past - always with a Republican President calling the shots. It allows Russia and Iran to consolidate their power in the Middle East. And it shows that when it comes to the US, they can't be trusted beyond the term of the current President, because no one can say if the next one will simply ignore or walk back previous agreements.
Our only reason for being in Syria was to defeat ISIS and since it is almost defeated, other countries such as Iraq can finish the job. It is not in US interests to be involved in the other wars in Syria. Our foreign policy should put America First.
Not "our" foreign policy, YOUR foreign policy. 'Cause I'm not American either. And ISIS was "almost defeated" before, when Obama was President. You ought to remember, consider it was what sent Trump's "trusted friend" General Michael Flynn off the deep end and lead to him getting drummed out of the US military. And as for "America First", at this point in history with the Internet and mass communication, the very idea that a country can cut itself off from the rest of the world and not be involved in anything unless they "win" is the most FUCKING INSANE THING anyone could possibly come up with. Insisting on "America First" in all foreign policy will put America LAST, because the rest of the world will say "fuck you then", and sorry, but the US has never stood alone. Despite what you idiots think.
