But, I guess the The Young Turks are right wingers, according to the logic of some idiots here.

The Young Turks don’t have to worry about being deported. And can vote.

Wall money still in omnibus. If the Democrats allow this, that's ridiculous:

@ChadPergram
Omnibus spending bill still not complete. Gov’t funded thru 11:59:59 pm et Friday. But they are getting close. No Gateway Project for NY/NJ. $1.6b for wall. No DACA. GOP hopes to post today & whip the vote. Hse would vote tomorrow

Dems are a bunch of whimps. All talk and no bite! If they really agree for 1.6 billion of wall money for nothing then they are really stupid!

We all need to call and tweet at these democrats to NOT allow themselves to be bullied.

That would be REPREHENSIBLE. $1.6 billion isn't chump change and realize that some of the money will be used for raids.

Another sticking point: immigration. Talks to protect young immigrants facing deportation fell apart over the weekend, but congressional Democrats spent Monday and Tuesday pushing to freeze hiring of immigration enforcement officials in return for providing Trump more than $1 billion in funding on his border wall.

Democrats and Republicans are likely to agree on about $1.6 billion in border funding that would help finance some fencing and security and avoid directly funding the large concrete wall that Trump wants, according to a Democratic aide.

Yup, Dems are going to agree to give him that 1 billion for NOTHING . These are our so called allies.

Is calling them going to change anything?

If Democrats agree to this, EXPECT A SHIT LOAD OF BACKLASH. If they hold the line against the funding, expect a government shutdown. The GOP is not backing down. <--This is what the Democrats need to do on DACA, but some of you just do not get it.

If they cave on that money, expect more raids. That money won't only be used for "fencing"/the wall.
