I agree Lori but I'm not going to get too excited until after the e******n. There's so much stuff happening on both sides to even try to make an educational guess. There are a lot of repukes dropping out and where I live they aren't putting any candidates up for e******n. I'm having to donate out of district. I am extremely disappointed with the gop, the President ought to go and grab them all by their pussies and straighten them out because that's how they have acted for the past year and a half! Don't worry, I haven't given up but I am frustrated with our team. Mike

Earlier this week, a caravan of immigrants making its way to the United States border sent President Donald Trump into a frenzy over what he sees as Mexicos inabilitynay, refusalto stop Central Americans from crossing the southern border illegally.

"Mexico is doing very little, if not NOTHING, at stopping people from flowing into Mexico through their Southern Border, and then into the U.S.," Trump tweeted Sunday. "They laugh at our dumb i*********n l*ws."

But Mexico is hardly laughing, experts told Newsweek. Research shows the country is detaining and deporting Central American immigrants in roughly the same numbers as the U.S., and often even surpassing the U.S. What's more, Mexico continues to dev**e resources to breaking up drug cartels and organized crime, the fear of which drives many immigrants to head north for refuge.

"Mexico has been doing far more to stop Central Americans from crossing the border than we have been doing," Shannon O'Neil, senior fellow for Latin American studies at the Council on Foreign Relations, told Newsweek.

Mexican officials went to lengths to break up the caravan on Tuesday, according to The Washington Post, which reported that immigration officers took a census at an encampment in Oaxaca, asking migrants for papers. Some were granted temporary legal permits requiring them to leave Mexico in 20 days, while others were permitted to apply for Mexican asylum.

On Wednesday, the Mexican Foreign Ministry reported that officials repatriated some 400 caravan migrants, sending them back to their native countries. "Under no circumstance does the government of Mexico promote illegal migration," the foreign ministry told CNN in a statement.

O'Neil said Trump need only look back a few years for evidence of how U.S.Mexico border security has improved. In 2014, the U.S. wrestled with what to do with the more than 68,000 children who had crossed the southern border, many of them unaccompanied. At the time, politicians and pundits sent truckloads of food, water and toys to the border for the children in attempts to mitigate what President Barack Obama deemed an "urgent humanitarian situation."

China is stomping all over the farmers and ag business in the proposed payback tariffs.. No, not yet in place..

did you see trumps pathetic speech to the farmers who have suffered already from income collapse due to his screwing around with tariffs and with NAFTA??

He thanked them for being great Americans to accept the cost of policies.. He said he will make it up to them later.... some how... as he hustled off the stage..

Syria---- this is puzzling... Why did Assad gas his, or any people.. that civil war is essentially over and he, with Russian help won.. why do this and get bombed???

When President Obama wanted to bomb Syria, he went to congress, they would not do it.. trump did not go to congress, though he was among those who insisted it was the thing for Obama to do..

However, as fate would have it, President Obama did get what he demanded.. strangely, thanks to Russia..

As for trump motive..... I have not heard a word about the raid on his lawyer or the contents of the trump noose..

I know many of you are disappointed with President's decision to bomb Syria and now you dont want to support him during 2018 midterms...But lets look at the alternatives....If we lose 2018 midterms there are almost 100% chance that we will lose our President of course we will lose Senate the House..So what is an alternative???Well Mike Pence will be our President,and its ok,but guess who is going to be the Speaker of the House??? Yes good ole Nancy Pelosi....And she is going to destroy everything that we did....Our biggest accomplishment was Tax reform...If she becomes Speaker of the House...it will be gone!!!..We would have open borders, sanctuary cities...more crime then we have right now!!!1Please,Please Please...Do not abandon GOP and our President NOW!!!...It will be horrible for our country....GET OUT AND V**E IN NOVEMBER!!!!
