Pelosi's border bill should be dead on arrival

When we previously discussed the President's decision to put the planned deportation raids in as many as a dozen cities on hold, I suggested that Speaker Pelosi might have put an offer on the table that caught Trump's attention, prompting the delay.

Now we're getting some of the details of the "Offer" Nancy Pelosi is putting forward and as far as I can tell, ICE should probably gas up the trucks and get ready to head out because it stinks on ice.

They are almost entirely based on help for the immigrants at the border and virtually nothing that the President or conservatives want out of a border bill.

Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Sunday said the House of Representatives will advance a border bill brought about by the House Appropriations Committee.

Trump said he would give Congress two weeks to pass a border bill before the raid is reinstated.

"The President's failed policies have exacerbated the situation at the border, where vulnerable children endure inhumane conditions that threaten their health, well-being and sometimes, tragically, their lives. This legislation provides urgently-needed humanitarian assistance for families, including funding for food, shelter, clothing, medical care and legal assistance, and will relieve the horrific situation of over-crowding and help prevent additional deaths," Pelosi said in a statement.

You can go down the list, but all of the spending items are related to meeting the needs of the illegal aliens already in the country, with no provisions for slowing the flow of additional illegals crossing the border or speeding up the rate that we are able to process them.
