    I was about to say the same thing. It is an invisible "see through" wall. Unfortunately it also covers the northern border and blocks air travel overseas.

    Not that short. The facts are: Bannon started Jan 20, 2016. Then 08-17-2017 he was fired. Not that short for a Trump appointee.

    Great. And pedophile supporter Kevin Jennings was Safe Schools Czar from June 6, 2009, until he announced his resignation on May 19, 2011. That doesn't make Obama a pedophile supporter. Or, according to your logic, maybe it does?

    Prince is a mercenary SOB! He and his equally corrupt sister, dimwitted DeVos, need to be gone once and for all!

    What does it have to do with Trump? Trump fired Bannon on Aug 18, 2017. The go fund me page was started in Dec of 2018.

    The "Go Fund Me" page wasn't even started until Dec 2018. Bannon was fired on Aug 2017.

    Exactly. Further evidence that Trump had nothing to do with it. But hell, facts don't bother Democrat pundits.

    Trump supporters seem to be gullible and here's another example. Ignorance breeds gullibility. So if Bannon was fired more than a year earlier why would anyone trust Bannon in the first place? Didn't they know he was fired? Trump supporters have been drinking snake oil and Bannon just sold them more and they got snookered.

    I'm all for allowing Mexican citizens to come here. Personally, we should build a wall around California, Oregon, and Washington.

    Not all the money, the scammers got their share first. Oh well, glad I wasn't a dummy donor.

    What, 10%? That's more than goes to the Red Cross causes, after you take into account their administrative costs.

    Bannon and team handled this absolutely poorly. They should have disclosed that there were administrative expenses and salaries paid, and people would have still donated.

    Dumb@$$es.

    Even the MSM's Stopped Clock, the NYT, knows that The Clintons are crooked.

    "That renewed adversarial relationship has raised concerns about European dependency on Russian energy resources, including nuclear fuel. The unease reaches beyond diplomatic circles. In Wyoming, where Uranium One equipment is scattered across his 35,000-acre ranch, John Christensen is frustrated that repeated changes in corporate ownership over the years led to French, South African, Canadian and, finally, Russian control over mining rights on his property.
    ]
    “I hate to see a foreign government own mining rights here in the United States,” he said. “I don’t think that should happen.”

    Mr. Christensen, 65, noted that despite assurances by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission that uranium could not leave the country without Uranium One or ARMZ obtaining an export license — which they do not have — yellowcake from his property was routinely packed into drums and trucked off to a processing plant in Canada."
    THE NEW YORK TIMES, Cash Flowed to Clinton Foundation Amid Russian Uranium Deal, By Jo Becker and Mike McIntire, April 23, 2015.

    CNBC disclosing today that Steve Bannon has been paid millions for his involvement with NON PROFITS, which pay no taxes. Typical of the scum Dirty Donald surrounds himself with.

    Not really. California is only attractive economically because it's the largest coast closest to Chinese imports. That drives the CA economy from a production standpoint.
    It's also beautiful landscape, which has nothing to do with the DNC.
    Aside from those two things, wall it off. Carpetbaggers that run from California because they voted for policies they're not willing to pay for aren't welcome here until they realize their mistake.

    Yes to both conditions. if that is what he did. The question of who is being prosecuted though seems entirely partisan. I mean, who stands up for the little countries like Jordan, or Egypt or any of the others that spent real money trying to get Hillary into power to peddle for them and she promised a win? Don't their needs matter?

    Yep. Even the NYT called the Clinton Foundation on it, lol. In a Pulitzer Prize winning article no less.
