direct payroll taxes, borrowing from income tax revenues, and using federal debt.


Program cost over 2 trillion but you are more interested in gutting a 600 billion military budget. Do you really think a welfare industrial complex is non-existent?

You cant complain about one and ignore the other
You of all persons believe that's the bulk of the military's budget grin grin grin The black budget is around $200 billion.

Since the funding for Welfare and Defense are not appropriated the same way, you can't put them on the same scale.

Military contractors have been ripping us off since the Iraq War and they haven't been purged from the MIC, we make weapons double the cost others make them. The same thing big pharma does with drugs, the MIC does with weapons and other military hardware.

Entitlement programs can be restructured to work more efficiently and save lots of money that should be redirected into a works program. On the same not, Defense spendings needs a review.

How did you come up with 500 billion? The black budget is around 60 billion. If we even add your bogus number to the military budget, it is still small potatoes comapred to 2 trillion.

Because of you and your fellow clowns, maybe trump the bigot should add Nigeria to the banned list due to Boko Haram insurgency. We will see how you and your ilks will feel about that. The beginning of the Fourth Reich is right now in America .

"Trump’s decision to ban arrivals from 7 Muslim countries will boost extremism", warns Iranian foreign minister


Wait so banning anyone from entering a country will make them tie exploxives on their body and blow up other people? Trump is right then. #BanThemAll
Obama did a similar ban back in 2011 on Iraqi refugees, no one on d msm cried a tear. Nevertheless I may have a soft spot on d folks that took off from their countries just b4 d ban was placed. Simple thing is the Potus is following up on his campaign promises and has specifically stated dat it isn't a "Muslim ban" like what most people are concluding.

When I tell you your ignorance is out of the world you take offence to it. Obama never did anything remotely close to what the Bigoted one is doing. The good thing is that ACLU is on the case already and the US District judges have put a stay on his Bigoted policy. Even arch conservative former VP Dick Cheney said Trump policy is unamerican. Condemnation from both political parties is unprecedented in recent American history. He's a megalomaniac and a Demagogue to booth . If not for the good people of Nigeria, I would have wish for Nigeria to be on the list because of Boko Haram. Always trying to justify the garbage coming from the garbage man elected president.

I wish he did so with Nigeria. You are the one displaying ignorance because the Executive Order itself is Legal and the President has the authority to do so. It is not a ban on an entire religion, the Order didn't state so. The whole argument is being exaggerated and blown out of proportion by the MSM. By the way here is something for u to chew on:
This law was passed by the Democrats under Harry Truman...

Section 212(f) of the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952:

"Whenever the president finds that the entry of aliens or of any class of aliens into the United States would be detrimental to the interests of the United States, the president may, by proclamation, and for such period as he shall deem necessary, suspend the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens as immigrants or non-immigrant's or impose on the entry of aliens any restrictions he may deem to be appropriate."

Obama used this same law at least six times between 2010 and 2014 against people in Iraq, Iran, Syria, and Crimea without even a whimper from the ACLU, ADL, John McCain, Gender Netural Graham, Chuck You Schumer, Hillary, Mark Zuckerberg, Hollywood elites, or the establishment globalist media. Amazing how that works.

Like I said to you once. Googling is seriously affecting your mental health. What trump did is plain bigotry against a set of people . I am not a Muslim and no one in my family is but justice shouldn't be blinded by bigotry. How come the Gulf States like Saudi Arabia , Qatar and others are not included ?. Because of his financial interests and loans he took from the Oil Sheiks. The worst tragedy that happened on American Soil is 911 and 17 out of the 19 hijackers were Saudis. Say you what ?. Interlopers like you always foam in the mouth supporting an open racist who care less about you and the people like you. I do go out of America as much as I want and ten thousands of trumps can't stop me from coming and I guess you know why. I hate his policies because it will have a bad effect on America . I could care less about terrorists and their ilks infact I wish they are all wiped out. You wonder why most Americans are protesting his bigoted policy even his own fellow republicans. You love him more than Melania and his children . Your Kool Aid is chilling and that US visa waiting for you at the Embassy. Good luck on that one.

How is this for hypocrisy: all of the 7 Islamic nations temporarily banned by President Trump permanently ban Israelis from their nations. What moral authority do they have to complain about temporarily receiving what they permanently give to others? If it hurts Libya, Syria, Iran, Iraq, Sudan, Somalia, Iraq and Iran to be prevented from visiting the US, then why do they do it to Israel and why do you protest on their behalf. These nations and their liberal friends on social media and real life who want equity must come to equity with clean hands and also be prepared to do equity

President Donald Trump debunked high-volume claims from the media, Muslim and left-wing critics who claim his new 90-day visitor safeguard policy and refugee reform is a blanket “Muslim ban.”
“This is not a Muslim ban, as the media is falsely reporting,” Trump said in the Sunday statement, as left-wing and Islamist groups decried his new visitor safeguards in airports around the nation, and protested his planned reduction in refugee inflow to 50,000 per year.

“This is not about religion – this is about terror and keeping our country safe. There are over 40 different countries worldwide that are majority Muslim that are not affected by this order,” Trump said.

“My policy is similar to what President Obama did in 2011 when he banned visas for refugees from Iraq for six months,” said Trump. “The seven countries named in the Executive Order are the same countries previously identified by the Obama administration as sources of terror,” he added

Trump continued:

America is a proud nation of immigrants and we will continue to show compassion to those fleeing oppression, but we will do so while protecting our own citizens and border. America has always been the land of the free and home of the brave. We will keep it free and keep it safe, as the media knows, but refuses to say…

We will again be issuing visas to all countries once we are sure we have reviewed and implemented the most secure policies over the next 90 days. I have tremendous feeling for the people involved in this horrific humanitarian crisis in Syria. My first priority will always be to protect and serve our country, but as President I will find ways to help all those who are suffering
