Good show Jim.

yuma, where illegal crossing arrests dropped over 90 percent after the wall was built. no one said it was reduced 100 percent. try some of that critical thinking perhaps.

spence, i think your problem, is that obviously you can’t differentiate between the word “reduce” and the word “eliminate.”. that’s it.

the wall will reduce illegal crossings and the problems that go along with it. the data shows that with zero ambiguity. it will not eliminate illegal crossings. is that too fast for you?

Big reason border crossings dropped at Yuma is because illegal immigration has dropped dramatically due to changing economics and the fact that many just tried to cross in other places.

Spence, if you want illegal immigrants to stop wanting to come here, ruin the country with progressive socialism which will destroy the country and remove freedoms while eliminating any desire to come here for a better life since here will be no better than anywhere else. It will take years but you are on the path.

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

It’s funny, all this progressive socialism seems to have built the strongest economy ever seen. We’re going to lose it not because it’s progressive but because of the divisiveness.

Yes Jim, can't argue with a sheep, in his mind freedom is just a word
