Once again, DEMs attempt to unite to slow the Trump agenda

The latest attempt by the Republicans leadership in Congress to convince 60 Senators to vote to extend funding for the Federal government is once again looking grim. This time the cudgel used by Democrats is funding for the Department of Homeland Security.
Who knows if there is a compromise to be made with Democrats, but as a “smaller government” Republican, maybe there is a way to appease them by scaling back funding for Border Patrol and ICE (their current hot button “defund” law enforcement political target) … BUT by doing that, cutting Federal dollars to some of the social programs in the news that have been fraudulently costing taxpayers … perhaps as much as $9 Billion in Minneapolis alone?
