LMFAO per Dave Brat wall prototypes forbidden in Omnibus bill

Just heard this on talk radio so consider the source.

33 miles of fencing in Texas is funded but the bill specifically forbids spending on anything resembling the wall prototypes/models Trump reviewed last week.

No barriers at a bird sanctuary in Texas too.

There ARE provisions for wall building- in Lebanon, Syria, and Egypt.

He will never tell the truth of course, so whatever he says it's really something else. He really really wants a shutdown because it hurts us economically as a country and hurts poor working class elderly the most and that makes little tiny hards so happy. Also, I'm sure Putin ordered this, he's been mentioning it even since he has his love chat with Pootie recently.
