that would really light his drawers on fire. Cannot rec Pelosi and Schumer enough for this move.

To the networks this is an offer they can't refuse.

The networks have no reason to listen to the "demands" of anyone but their shareholders, unfortunately.

the networks aren't immune from disaster if the USA goes down. The Speaker of the House has requested it. Pretty much all you need isn't it?

what the 5.6 billion is actually for, and that he hasn't even spent the money given last year for border wall/security.

Media focuses on pelosi v trump. should focus on the substance of the trump request, if there is any.
