HEH. HEH, HEH: Cuomo admits failure of ‘tax the rich’ policies as millionaires flee New York.

He expected them to stay and be fleeced into poverty?
BULLY POWER in full view.
SPARE US THE TROUBLE, fire 'em all and appoint Mary Katharine Ham governor of Virginia. Let her pick the rest.
THE BIPARTISAN COMMITTEE ON HOMELAND SECURITY has until Feb. 17th to come up with a funding bill for the Department of Homeland Security. They need to be reminded to do the job we want done. Here's my contribution.
WALLS WORK. That is not opinion, it is an objective, verifiable, testable, and repeatable fact. Call them what you want - walls, fences, barriers, big piles of steel, concrete, and rock, large flat vertical surfaces on which to place valuable works of art - physical barriers impede movement. If you're too dumb to understand that simple concept, then resign now - you shouldn't be a member of Congress.

That said, I want a physical barrier along our southern border. It needn't be continuous, and no physical barrier can possibly be impenetrable - that's an impossibility. But a physical barrier is sufficient to channel illegal migration to border areas that can be effectively managed.

No technology, no matter how sophisticated, can do that.

So provide funds in the Homeland Security budget to build one. Listen to the Border Patrol agents and provide the funds to build what they need, where they need it. Whether it's $1 billion or $10 billion, provide it. The cost is insignificant compared to the (every year) cost of maintaining an illegal population in the United States.

And if you can't come to a consensus on providing funding on a border barrier, I have a trio of threats: First, I will urge President Trump to veto whatever you propose, shut the government down again, and keep it shut down for however long it takes. Second, I will urge him to use his Presidential authority and build the wall over Congressional objection. And finally, I will remember your stance and support your opponents financially during your next election cycle.

Keep firmly in mind - you work for me, not conversely.

Do what I've done - write them, call them, urge - no, demand - they 'build the wall'.

UPDATE & BUMP: Senators seem to be willing to accept email input from anyone; Congresscritters, not so much. So you may have to content yourself with calling them directly. Or do what I did - send an email to your own Congresscritter requesting that he/she/it forward it on to the committee members listed above. Along with a (somewhat snide) suggestion that Congressccritters only be allowed to work on legislative items restricted solely to their own districts.

THE KAVAUGH STANDARD bites back.

There's that double-edged sword thingy again....
I FEEL SORRY FOR THE BEAR; IT HAD TO BE EUTHANIZED: Man eaten by bear in national park had overdosed on methamphetamine.
IF THESE BONEHEADS GET THEIR WAY, Venezuela will look like Heaven on Earth.
WHAT CONGRESS MEANS by 'sworn testimony'.

Example: James Comey.
BECAUSE HE'S A DEMOCRATIC SOCIALIST? Why does Bernie Sanders hate women of color?
I AM NOT A RACIST: I support killing babies of all colors.

Satire? You make the call.
WHO WINS? Race card or rape card? The Democrats crack apart when 'intersectionality' competes with itself.

Maybe this will help you decide....
CHEERLEADING INFANTICIDE might just be the tipping point for Democrats.

Well, post-Trump they've certainly let their insanity hang out for all to see....
IMPRIMIS: Marijuana, mental illness, and violence.

Read the whole thing, and then consider the following:

Liberals have essentially criminalized smoking (and made billions as well - tobacco settlement, anyone?) because smoking probably causes cancer. On the other hand, liberals have essentially legalized marijuana use because it enables them to feel good.

But smoking predominately kills only the smoker; marijuana predominately allows the user to kill/maim/hurt innocent others.

Hypocrisy, anyone?
