by Causes | 3.14.19

The Senate voted 59-41 Thursday afternoon on a bill to terminate the border security emergency declared by President Donald Trump, who is expected to exercise the first veto of his presidency to block it.

Democrats were joined by 12 Republicans in voting to end the emergency, with concerns about executive overreach proving to be a bipartisan concern.

It’s not clear how soon the president will veto the bill, but once he does Congress may attempt to override the veto. Based on the the 245-182 vote in the House and the 59-41 vote in the Senate, it appears neither chamber has the two-thirds majority needed for a successful override.

Congress’s last successful override of a presidential veto came in September 2016, when bipartisan super-majorities enacted the Justice Against Sponsors of Terrorism Act despite President Barack Obama’s veto.

For Decades- the world has been dominated by a process called Globalization- the securitization of the worlds political and economic systems- that hollows out and erodes a counties traditions, customs, and religions- all the while conditioning populations to rely on the expertise of a tiny class of technocrats for every aspect of their social and Economic lives. Globalization/The Left/DNC aim to Fool/Scare and Threaten Americans by means of 24/7 MSM/Media Matters/Groups such as Soros Open Society Foundation/ANTIFA/BLM and Indoctrination-Grade Threats on College Campuses and School Districts to force this new cultural concept on all Americans. The Left represents Total Control/Fascism of American lives and culture. This is abundantly clear with DNC actions on Bills/Laws at the state level and Congress. 1A and 2A are under attack- should this fall- the remainder is a cake walk for a Fascist/Globalist DNC Government. DNC supporters speak of returning to Honor and Honestly- and have no concept they have been Fooled by false heavenly narratives of Globalization- which will ultimately ENSLAVE them- and all Americans. When they willing give up their Individual rights for the FALSE notions of the Greater good and Fairness for All- and then realize they have become powerless. The greater good is Always Individual Powers/rights, Individual Choice and Individual culture. The Current Democratic’s want to take this away from you- and you’ll never get it back. Go to bed at night knowing the DNC wants Total Control of your Life, Speech, Thinking and Checking Account. They will stop at nothing to take that from you.
