  • Well anything short of a preemptive invasion is a win in my book.

      They are clearly not thugs and gang members to any significant degree but they must certainly are economic migrants intent on breaking our laws and abusing our immigration and asylum systems with fraud. I have little to no sympathy for these people and neither should anyone else.

          oops... only 3 dead and 4 or 5 wounded. Not a real American mass shooting. False News!

        Nigeria's army cites Trump to justify shooting Shia protesters

        The Nigerian army has cited a video of US President Donald Trump, in which he says soldiers should respond with force to migrants throwing stones, to justify opening fire on a Shia group this week.

        "When they throw rocks... consider it as a rifle," Mr Trump says in the clip.

        Nigerian police have arrested 400 members of a Shia Muslim sect after days of deadly protests in the capital.

        Amnesty International has criticised Nigeria's army for the killings, saying the Shia protesters were peaceful.

        But a spokesman for the Nigerian army says their decision to fire live rounds at protesters in Abuja was justified because they were armed, telling the BBC "this is what [Mr] Trump was talking about".
        Nigeria's army responds to criticism of using live rounds against Shia protesters with a Trump video.

          Despots have been doing this forever. Trump is not an innovator...

      • That honestly sounds like a very weak excuse from people who can't take responsibility for their own actions.

          Who, Trump?

          • Trump is his own basket of dispicableness but I hold the murderers responsible for their murders. This is the equivalent of the third grade excuse that the dog ate their homework. They pulled the trigger and they are responsible for their actions.

            trying to deflect after they have been caught is so lame.

            • I doubt it’s intended as an excuse. Probably just a means of pointing out our claimed moral authority is a load of hogwash.

                • Stacey Abrams, Oprah targeted by racist robocall funded by white supremacist group

                  Democratic Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams and Oprah Winfrey were targeted in a racist robocall to Georgia voters on Friday.

                  The robocall was apparently funded by TheRoadToPower.com, a video podcasting site that has been called white supremacist and anti-Semitic by the Anti-Defamation League. The robocall is apparently being funded by the same white supremacist group that targeted Florida gubernatorial candidate Andrew Gillum earlier this month, the Daily Beast reported.

                  A voice in the call pretends to be Oprah, the legendary talk-show host who stumped for Abrams in Georgia earlier this week.

                  "This is the magical negro, Oprah Winfrey, asking you to make my fellow negress, Stacey Abrams, the governor of Georgia," the call begins, according to recordings.

                  "Years ago, the Jews who own the American media saw something in me - the ability to trick dumb white women into thinking I was like them," the voice continues. "I see that same potential in Stacey Abrams."

                  The robocall compares Abrams to a "poor man's Aunt Jemimah" who "white women can be tricked into voting for, especially the fat ones."

                  Abrams's opponent, Secretary of State Brian Kemp, in an emailed statement to The Hill, called the robocall "vile," "racist" and "absolutely disgusting."

                  "I stand against any person or organization that peddles this type of unbridled hate and unapologetic bigotry," he said.

                        Yeah, sure, over the whole length of more than 3000 km, with its varied terrain
                        Also the funds in the federal budget are earmarked when they get approved by the congress ... and none of the funds destined for the military was earmarked as being used for a border wall between the USA and Mexico


                        Also IIRC Trump promised that Mexico would pay for the wall ...
                        well, I guess as soon as Trump does some negotiation magic and Mexico has transferred the funds, work on the border wall can begin.
                        Shouldn't be much more difficult than to win trade wars, or to present a healthcare system that costs less and yet covers more US citizens than Obamacare did

                          The barbed wire fence has been there for over 100 years already, genius.
