    What a card sharp, raising the stakes for a much smaller pot.

    Do you think it's fair for DJT to play with the lives and livelihoods of hundreds of thousands of workers this way?

    As I remember it, the offer was for the DACA's to get permanent US residence but Democrats demanded it be full citizenship. That is why the deal blew up. Am I remembering it wrong?
    i dont know the specifics of the daca part, but the white house rejected it because they also wanted to include changes to family migration and the diversity lottery in the deal

    democrats basically offered border security for daca, but white house demanded border security, family migration + lottery reform for daca

    Family migration = good for Trump's wife and her parents

    Bad for people of the wrong skin color

    that deal involved DACA, which never got anything but lip service from DJT.
    ethnic-cleanser Miller probably dictated to Trash NEVER to agree to Dreamer / DACA

    Trump walks out of shutdown talks when Democrats reject funds for his border wall

    A day after calling for a bipartisan compromise to resolve the partial government shutdown,

    President Trump stormed out of a White House negotiating session Wednesday

    when Democratic leaders refused to agree to his demand for taxpayer funds to build a southern border wall.

    “Just left a meeting with Chuck and Nancy, a total waste of time,” Trump tweeted afterward.

    He said he asked House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-San Francisco) and Senate Minority Leader Charles E. Schumer (D-N.Y.) if they would agree to end the shutdown, now in its 19th day, in return for funds for a wall or steel barrier, one of his major campaign promises.



    “Nancy said, NO. I said bye-bye, nothing else works!,” the president tweeted.


    Democratic leaders accused the president of throwing a temper tantrum.


    "The president slammed the table, asked Speaker Pelosi if she would support his wall and when she said no, he walked out and said,

    'We have nothing to talk about,' " Schumer said.

    "He didn't get his way and he just walked out of the meeting."


    Pelosi said a wall will not resolve the problems currently experienced at the border

    Iirc, the family migration part was to prevent the ones who broke the law (the DACA parents) from themselves getting a pass and to break the cycle/incentive of sending/bringing kids and eventually their parents.

    Even though NOW the number crossing the border is reportedly lower, the difference is in WHO is crossing - the children (non-Mexicans) who change the way in which they are processed. Before, was Mexican adults. Now, accompanied by or unaccompanied minors - resulting in overwhelming facilities/judges/resources instead of deportation.

    They should get a chance to respond -- though their use of complete sentences and truthful statements will probably trigger you.

    22 Rep seats are up for grabs in 2020. 800K federal workers are not getting paid. I wonder how many have high school children that are watching Mamma or Daddy and Mamma struggling to pay bills because of Trump's shutdown? Any chance their children will vote Rep when they turn 18? Peep this out:

    Trump is ing up your party Chris. Are you ready for the Senate to flip in 2020? It's gonna happen. And your boy Trump will be the reason.

    Fair enough. So you agree that there is a strong possibility that the Senate - and Presidency - will turn blue in 2020?

    Also, I predict that once the Senate turns blue, they will go after Kavanaugh. His days as a Justice are numbered too.

    I disagree. I think Trump wins easily in 2020 against whatever creature the Democrats decided to prop up (Biden,Beto,Warren) The Senate will likely remain red for quite some time.

    It was consensus that the Dems were going to take the House well before the election.

    He didn't I'm sure you can go find a quote of him staying the house would stay red if you care enough.

    His revisionist history now is that of course it was going to flip blue, everybody knew it, everybody talked about it.

    Trash pandering for BigOil campaign $Ms

    Trump administration working on Arctic oil leases despite shutdown

    the Trump administration is continuing to push for the expansion of oil drilling on sensitive, federally owned lands in Arctic Alaska.

    The Alaska Bureau of Land Management (BLM), part of the Interior Department,

    was scheduled to hold a meeting on Wednesday night in Wainwright, an Inupiat village on the Arctic coast,

    over a plan to expand oil development in the National Petroleum Reserve in Alaska.

    The Trump administration has pushed to move quickly on lease sales in the ANWR, which it won approval to drill in through the passage of tax legislation in 2017 after decades of prohibition.

    Alaska’s crude oil production has been sagging for years. The state produced more than 2 million barrels of oil a day (bpd) in 1988,

    but as of October, the most recent data available, it produced 487,000 bpd, according to the U.S. Energy Department.
