    That would be upholding the oath of office and putting Americans and America first.

    Actually Americas immigration policies have been completely out if control since the Immigration Act of 1965.

    We need to go back to pre 1965 when legal immigration was capped at around 250,000 per year.

    The Legacy of the 1965 Immigration Act
    Five Decades of Mass Immigration

    https://cis.org/Report/Legacy-1965-Immigration-Act

    Somebody was lying to the American people bigly.

    Between 1800 to 1965 1/3 of the immigrants who came to America just didn't have the American pioneer spirit and got back on the boat and returned to their home country.

    FYI: There was no free stuff in America before 1960.

    Return Migration
    Another factor in intensifying the impact of immigration is a reduced rate of emigration — that is, more of today's newcomers stay for their whole lives, rather than returning to the old country after a few years. Note that in the 1930s, emigration was higher than 100 percent, meaning that during the Great Depression more people left the country than entered.

    My assumption is that those deaths were the result of attempted illegal crossings.

    It is illogical to contend that anything that makes illegal crossings more difficult, won't reduce the number of attempts.

    Who knows. There may be a SS guy that just had his car repoed that goes nuts over it. Better not to risk another Syria over it.

    Here is a place.

    • 88 percent of a border wall’s opponents “say it would not be acceptable to pass a bill that includes Trump’s request for wall funding, if that is the only way to end the shutdown.”
    • Among wall supporters, 72 percent “say a bill to end the shutdown would be unacceptable if it does not include Trump’s funding request.”

    Maybe, but I doubt it.

    I'm more inclined to believe that Pelosi and Schumer are getting calls telling them to not agree to any wall funding, ever.

    Pelosi Says She ‘Doesn’t Care’ After DHS Contradicts Claim that SOTU Should be Cancelled

    LOL - After getting caught in a lie, Pelosi's immature response hardly comes as a surprise...

    They mean "democrat support for the wall," not support for democrats.

    Feel free to work on your reading comprehension.

    Republicans are increasing their support for the wall. Democrats are decreasing their support for the wall. The total support for the wall is almost exactly the same as it was one month ago.

    Feel free to work on your reading comprehension.

    Nobody respects her now.

    Democrats are afraid of her because of her fundraising and willingness to chop her colleagues off at the knees.

    Republicans just look at her and wonder how someone that stupid became head of a major party.

    Nope. Attendance to the House is by invitation only. It's Nancy's House.
    He could go to the Senate, it's open to everyone, but may not seat to many.

    The State of the Union is presented to a joint session of Congress, so both the House of Representatives and Senate must pass resolutions inviting the president to give the speech. Neither resolution has been passed yet. As speaker, Pelosi can simply refuse to put such a resolution up for a vote, effectively giving her power to enforce her dis-invitation.
