House Democrats Add $1 Billion in Border-Related Spending to Measures to Reopen Government..... It seems than putting the skids on Polosi's boondoggle may have jarred the Democrats into working for the people instead of their own agendas. https://www.nytimes.com/2019/01/18/us/politics/pelosi-donald-trump-cancel-travel.html

Do not celebrate yet.... this is only a small crack and I do not think our President will accept this spending measure. First, it is not a budget and will only send people back to work for a few months and then the fight would start all over again. But, we will see.... as for me, I see this as a break among Democrats while the true Republicans are standing behind our President.

I agree,and we will see what President Trump is going to say tomorrow!!!

I think he is going to say that he has decided to use money found in the Pentagon's budget to get the wall in gear while waiting for the Democrats to crumble. This is like a cracked baking dish... add heat and the crack will become a break and fall apart. President Trump will get the wall built. I think that he will dangle a carrot in the face of the Democrats... listen for the term DARCA...

I hope he will re-open Gov with his Emergency powers!!!

Under his authority he can evaluate certain jobs as essential and send them back to work with pay, but reopen the government requires a spending measure, either another stop gap or a full budget.

What are you smoking, government doesn't need to be reopened with emergency powers, McConnell just has to allow a v**e.

So the president is in charge of appropriations now? If that's the best you can come up with, your big giant brain has been highly overestimated. My guess is that he's going to announce that he's caving. After all, what does he have to lose--it's not like you people are going anywhere...

There is no money added until the senate agrees and the President signs. It's only a gesture.

Maybe Trump is going to convince his followers that he can build his wall on a billion dollars. They've bought everything else that he's spewed so they might as well buy that...

All that is necessary, but has no bearing on building the wall/fence for border security.

It's all misdirection on the Dim-O-Crats part to make it look like are trying to negotiate. Not a single cent has been alloted for the wall/fence only for the building more points of entrance and hiring more government workers.
