I hate to throw cold water on a noble cause, but if this GoFundMe account has raised $500K in 3 days, then it will take over 16 years to raise $1 Billion, assuming the contributions keep rolling in at the same rate. We need a helluva lot more.
You can check my math, but I think I’m pretty close.
I have a better idea: Bake sales.
Bear, I legit spit out my coffee laughing at your bake sales comment! LOL!
Like someone else mentioned, I find it interesting (irritating, maddening) that we are sending aide to other countries prior to securing our own borders first. It's insanity. | |

       Location: Peg-Leg Julia Grimm | Here's the deal. IF Trump can't get congress to step up and do the right thing, he will build the wall using the Army Corp of Engineers and take the money out of the military budget. ETA: Because it is after all a national security issue.
This is his plan after he makes SURE we all know that congress is a bunch of chicken sh*t no action morons.

You're so right. Most of them who got voted out have already gone home. They should lose the last month of their pay but I'm sure they've taken care of that little detail.

          Location: Bastrop, Texas | Does anyone remember Rush Limbaugh’s famous “Dan’s Bake Sale” which was held in Ft Collins, Colo? It took place in 1993.
It was a satirical stunt based on the ridiculous fad of school children holding bake sales to raise the national deficit.
Well, you have to look it up, but what started out as a joke ended up with a crowd of over 80,000 people showing up.

We need a huge series of national bake sales to raise money for the wall. Talk about an “organic” movement to send a message to the spineless bastards in DC. | |

    Location: Pittsburg, Texas 75686 | They have raised 3.2 million now. There is no reason we can't do this if people will pitch in. I just donated.....it's all worth a try for our freedom. People are giving $5.00 on up. Every little bit helps. Please donate. We can't let the swamp win, Trump is doing everything he can. It's time for the citizens to step up to the plate. Let's Roll!!

        Location: Kansas | Headliner on Fox news website right now is about a California sheriff's frustration with not being able to work with ICE (thank you state Democrats). An illegal went on a spree, robbed a convenience store, killed a man, shot at buildings and then proceeded to run all over the highway hitting cars, killing himself and injuring four others. He was twice deported but these guys come back whenever they feel like it. The illegal criminal who killed Kate Steinle had been deported five times. | |

Headliner on Fox news website right now is about a California sheriff's frustration with not being able to work with ICE (thank you state Democrats). An illegal went on a spree, robbed a convenience store, killed a man, shot at buildings and then proceeded to run all over the highway hitting cars, killing himself and injuring four others. He was twice deported but these guys come back whenever they feel like it. The illegal criminal who killed Kate Steinle had been deported five times.Â
I read that article and it just lit me up.
I posted it to Facebook, with the following remarks:
But they keep telling us how stupid we are for accepting the notion that there are some very bad people amongst those illegal immigrants idling out in sanctuary cities. Hey cite “studies” which purport to say illegals are less apt to commit crime versus legal residents. We are stupid and they are intellectually superior and more enlightened because they base their opinions on “facts and logic”.
Here’s a fact for them to chew on: This would not have happened, were it not for their tolerance and protection of those breaking our laws.
Ask the families of Lennox Lake, Ronald Da Silva, Tessa Tranchant, Sarah Root, Shayley Estes, Drew Rosenberg, Grant Ronnebeck, Kate Steinle,
Blake Zieto, Mollie Tibbitts, Christian Odiette, Peter Hacking, Ellie Hacking, Grayson Hacking, Dominic Durden, Edwin Jackson, Kristopher Eggle, Terry Wendover, Kenneth Mahr, Jamica Williams, Micheal Furlow, Kaybrin Ingoldsby, Officer Kevin Will, Sergeant Brandon Mendoza, LaDonna Brady, Robin Shelhammer, Barbara Shelhammer, Whitney Meinke, Brandy Lee Thorn and her unborn son, Sergeant Corey Wride, Nikki Schermock, Joshua Wilkerson, Eric Zepeda, Brandon Mendoza, Jamiel Shaw, Brandy Thorne, Jesse Benavides, Emilie Cortez, Sviatlana Dranko, Spencer Golvach, Peggy Kostelnik, Bob Barry Jr, Micheal Grubbs, Jamie Oxendine, Mary Oxendine, Shane Oxendine, Parker Moore, Amos Jones, Naomi Mercury, Brittany Williams, Deputy Micheal Davis, Deputy Daniel Oliver, Delilah McDaniel, Officer Daryl Raetz, Diann Jones, Arnette Chandler, A’Janae Jones, Wanda Fay Beach, Leone Turpin, sergeant Brandon Mendoza, Officer Andy Chavez, Lauren Bump, Lenny Shay, Abigail Robinson, Anna Dieter-Eckert, Heather Coble, Madison Coble, Louise Sollowin, Chad Nelson, Serenity Reedy, Dwayne Polk, Blake Cohorn, Jasmine Owens, Dimitri Smith, Joe Storie, Vanessa Pham, Terrell Horn, Kenneth Carroll, Jamiel Shaw, Kyle Wible, Brandon Sullivan, Charisse Grime, Sister Jacqueline Walsh, Sara Escudero, Olivia Wilson, Ryan Scholz, Jean McCarthy, Alexander Adkin, Jerry Laury, Kathleen Byham, Daniel Pollack........and the list goes on and on and on. Blacks, whites, Asians, Hispanics, straight, gay, men, women, children, soldiers, policemen, nuns,doctors, farmers, plumbers, students, moms, dad’s, brothers, sons, and daughters.
Tell that to the thousands who have died from Opiates smuggled across the Mexican Border.
Tell that to the “Angel Moms”.
Why is this allowed? Political expedience, plain and simple. These lives don’t matter. All that really matters to these enablers is hatred of Trump and political power. | |
