I am 78 years old and have never ever seen such stupidity and I have relatives all over the world they call me and laugh what’s happening in the US it’s very embarrassing and sad. I truly hate to write what I am about to say since every President and it’s Administration takes an Oath of Office to Protect the Country and the American Citizens none of which has happened. Seriously there needs to be accountability like serious Jail/ Fine time. Jail the Entire Current Administration with Heavy Fines. This will set a precedent to future Presidents & the Administration that the Rule of Law in the US is serious and means business. Dear Citizens please take your vote seriously and don’t be an ideologue it’s our Country not any one individual or political party. Thank You God Bless USA 🇺🇸 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@Marcello1b]

There should be accountabilities and even Marshall court consequences for those who totally were aware of their acts/corruptions/attempts of sailing** USA to foreign countries, to purposely weaken USA.

[@markmaiolo8387]

@@chatryna What would happen if we secured our boarder and then set up a nursing system where women who wanted to abort a baby had a choice to put that baby in a nursing facility created, with ability to visit the child, or have the child and be given a stipend allowing the mother to raise that child at home assuming the mother was capable. Also if the mother was visiting the infant and a couple wanted to adopt that child, the couple would be introduced to the mother and they could discuss visitation options and how the couple would raise the child or even all 3 could work together and raise the child. This would reduce abortions, preserve American culture/values, reduce going to foreign countries to adopt, possibly allow the birth mother to adopt her child out of the nursing facility at a later time when she is more capable and may even be less expensive than our current situation of allowing massive cultural shock to the USA. It also reduces a rogue president to abandon our boarder for self serving bribes or overthrowing the vote through using American tax dollars to promise free things to people that would crash our boarder. I'm just pulling this out off the top of my head but America can send a satellite to Mars yet can't figure a better way to improve this situation. It may not be perfect at first but it should at least be studied I believe.

[@chatryna]

@@markmaiolo8387 Not many on the internet even attempt to lay out a plan. Your's is much appreciated. But as you noticed, "they can send a satilite to mars but cant fiigure this stuff out" paraphrase. I would suggest they can figure it out but fixing problems is not their goal. Their goal is to create problems. For as long as I can remember, the answer to our problems has always been that it can't be done. Then Trump came along and showed that it CAN be done. My comment was really an attack on my own people for hating babies, hating the opposite sex, hating family life, hating house chores and anythng else that has to do with the management of a home. Our national birth rate is negative. An unusually large population lives on the streets and is on drugs. This debilitates our work force. We are so caught up in relativism that we can't even have a calm discussion arguing for the benefits of living a sane life. What we need is tough love. That means holding one another accountable. But we are way to soft for that. And no one trusts any one else's intentions, or their judgement to subject themselves to that kind of accountability not to mention the millions of ways one can define oneself as holding to an American core value. We are systematically being broken up into 300 million separate individuals. That is not a nation. That is a lost herd of sheep about to be ravaged by the big bad wolf.

[@harleymarcum-vr5hn]

You guys can stop this if you truly wanted to

[@bonnierobinson9993]

Right on

[@chatryna]

And that we learned directly from Trump himself. That is why they hate him so fiercely.

[@johncrazyhorse2707]

Mitch McConnell needs to be taken out of the Senate and made to retire. This is and he is the reason , I hate the Government.

[@philmeanor2638]

He didn’t believe the Dems would lie all the time.

[@PeterParker-gt3xl]

Shut it down if there is no serious commitment to take care of "our own" border. It is hypocritical to love thy neighbor and not thy own.

[@danielmoran3140]

shut down must happen and the whole government be defunded.

[@carolbatchelder1]

You know it's not how it works right

[@agent4705]

Note: Mitch mentioned a need for a CR .... again it's business as usual ....nothing done .... more money wasted. Wish I could do that with my finances.

[@puck61luck64]

Fix the boarder and shut it down, or shut the government down. If they can't fix the boarder then we don't need them.

[@dennissmith562]

This is why we need term limits……..".".

[@jones36036]

The senate should have the right to go above Schumer and start working on the bill's.

[@DavidRoberts-od8yj]

The Senate has forwarded a bill to the House -- what did they do with it?

[@Hbrown1770]

Wrong , the house sent a bill to the senate and Schumer will not touch it ! FCS@@DavidRoberts-od8yj

[@Yanks4life99]

You’re wrong. The impeachment process starts with articles of impeachment, then sent to the house for inquiries and then approved by the senate

[@BlotRorschach]

​@@DavidRoberts-od8yjWithout attaching H.R. 2, which renders it nothing more than throwing money at processing personnel.

[@Jason-TheChad-Muska_circa1995]

​@@Yanks4life99What in the world are you talking about? You never read the US Constitution before? If you don't have to vote to start an impeachment inquiry. Republicans just did this so that they weren't engaging and the partisanship that Democrats engaged in just over 3 years ago. They want to go through the proper channels However it is not required. The house brings forth an impeachment vote in if a majority sides then the individuals impeached then goes to the Senate for a trial. The house in this sense is the equivalent of a grand jury indicting somebody. The Senate is the literal trial. The Senate does not have to give approval to the House of Representatives in order to start an impeachment. That is the most absurd thing I've ever heard of my life and completely goes against the separation of powers.

[@kentpruett128]

Mitch the RINO needs to go.

[@audio2664]

Mitch is the voice of of the GOP ! Even when he freezes!

[@crystalmay1162]

I challenge Langford to do a town hall over this border mess and see how that works out for him. I guarantee his constituents would have alot to say! Guess thats why hes not having one. In fact non of these jack***es are listening to what their constituents want!

[@danieldahlin1937]

Shut it down unless we close the border

[@susanyeh4423]

Why doesn't this government take actions to prevent all these from happening?

[@hazelann63]

Because they are complicit

[@tuanvo1538]

They betray us and are compromised!

[@claire2500]

Why are the American taxpayers still funding the destruction of their country? Go exempt or claim ten NOW!!!

[@johng3868]

The democrats are a wall against all that is good.

[@jimlaufenberg6086]

They are sleeping too much

[@sephardim4yeshua155]

In the downfall of Rome, it was their northern border that was being invaded. We have a lot in common with ancient Rome. Thats not a good thing.

[@ronaldsanderson9924]

Mitch, you have your old buddy and friend Joe B to thank for all of these wars. Hope you're making lots of money off of the dead bodies around the world.

[@FireMan-xw8zs]

Who goes "on break" when the shit is literally hitting the fan. I've lost all hope too in government, both parties, law enforcement, the whole scare the the shit out of me MUCH more than anyone I meet on the streets.

[@philmeanor2638]

Please vote Republican.

[@tammytorrey3747]

Close the damm border!!!!!!

[@claire2500]

Stop funding this, go exempt.

[@jmelz155]

Article 1 section 8. Both sides committed treason by not doing anything but talking like 🤡🤡🤡 they are complicit 🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩.

[@SmolaChic]

Three whole years, THREE, and now you wanna get serious??? The damage is beyond done.

[@scottshipley7376]

How bout you shut down EVERY THING, until that border is secure..

[@garywheeler6409]

What's left in theses people. We need AGE limits/term limits, individual performances reports ect.....

[@karenwilliams517]

Constitutional republic, constitutional republic People need to be taught this. They don't understand what it is they think. Democracy is what we are we are not. We are a constitutional Republic individually standing, not a majority telling us what to do. They want to take away our constitutional rights.

[@peterbaruxis2511]

Yes, let's work to get our hostages back. One time many years ago when my bicycle was stoled I approached a group of ten or more older, bigger kids alone with a two foot long metal pipe in my hand and got my bicycle back- it took about four minutes. How long do you expect the work to take to get those "People of the United States of America" home.

[@RedRonFJB]

Hold their paychecks until something is done.

[@MarkSmith-cd3ny]

Going on 4 yrs and Congress and Senate have yet to vote on any bill to stop boarder access. Full of Sh!t.

[@philmeanor2638]

Leader of Senate is a Dem who doesn’t want to fix the border.

[@kimberlysix8357]

Every single one if those suits, ties and heels, no matter what party has lost all respect they coyldve ever gotten from me. What despicable people they ALL are.

[@philmeanor2638]

Please vote Republican so positive change will happen. The Dems are lying about wanting to help the country.

[@jeremys943]

Why are 80 year old people making decisions for us? WTF

[@mskiUSMC]

TERM LIMITS! I WANT TERM LIMINTS!

[@LOVE_CONQUERS_ALL_919]

Exactly, bcos why are Congressmen and women 80 and 90 yrs old still occupying positions in office? Really? How sharp can their minds really be?

[@janetburney3017]

This is what you get when you vote for a spineless president

[@Lt.852]

Exactly!

[@PNWPatriot1776]

You guys are all talk and no action!! It’s time to clean the senate out!! Let’s get some Republicans that are not part of the swamp!!

[@reverimaldonado5134]
