        Pro-amnesty Democrats insisted President Donald Trump should send them a shorter list of immigration priorities — so he sent them on Friday a new copy of his October 8 priorities plus a new cost estimate for his border wall.

        The estimate for the 700-mile border wall says it will cost the government $18 billion, or roughly 1 cent for every $20 spent by the federal government.

This is what's called rubbing their noses in it.

Good on ya, Mr. Trump!

I believe all we need to do is to state unequivocally what Congress agreed to do when it passed the amnesty law in 1986 and leave it at that.

-required employers to attest to their employees' immigration status;
-made it illegal to hire or recruit illegal immigrants knowingly;
-legalized certain seasonal agricultural illegal immigrants, and;
-legalized illegal immigrants who entered the United States before January 1, 1982 and had resided there continuously with the penalty of a fine, back -taxes due, and admission of guilt; candidates were required to prove that they were not guilty of crimes, that they were in the country before January 1, 1982, and that they possessed at least a minimal knowledge about U.S. history, government, and the English language.
