Why We Know That Congressional Democrats Are Betraying Us On The Border Wall ⚫⚫⚫⚫⚫⚫⚫⚫⚫⚫⚫⚫ For the past five days, the display of the stupidity in the elected bodies of Congress has been on full display. For the past five days, Americans have had to put up with politically framed speeches and explanations of why this shutdown had to happen and whose fault it truly is. For the past five days the amount of grandstanding “on principle” has made many feel that no one in Washington DC will ever listen to the people ever again. However for the past five days—outside of DC—another story began to be told.  For the past five days, more than a quarter of a million American citizens have been more successful in gaining consensus than sixty elected U.S. Senators. And with a greater measure of what it actually costs those same quarter of a million citizens—representing political affiliations of every stripe—have shamed our nation’s highest elected body into an abject embarrassment for their inability to reflect the will of those who sent them there. Simultaneously this crystal clear sign of American will has survived a challenge to its integrity that is fairly telling. Here are the details. At the Senate’s inability to find the votes necessary to pass the initial 5 billion to fund a permanent border barrier, a triple amputee, decided to lead in a different direction.

He is a Purple Heart recipient. ⚫⚫⚫⚫⚫⚫⚫⚫⚫⚫⚫⚫ ( Full story below )⤵ ⚫⚫⚫⚫⚫⚫⚫⚫⚫⚫⚫⚫ https://townhall.com/columnists/kevinmccullough/2018/12/23/why-we-know-that-congressional-democrats-are-betraying-us-on-the-border-wall-n2537982
