We Didn't Doubt It

Here's a recent tweet sent out by senator Dick Durbin of Illinois (who is the number 2 Democrat in the Senate leadership).

I’m not going to let anything distract me from my singular mission: making sure that Dreamers have the protection and certainty about their future that they deserve.

 

Think about that for a moment.  The Democrats second in command in the Senate is focused solely on helping illegal aliens and won't be distracted by anything else.  That means healthcare, Social Security, national defense, infrastructure, economic development, jobs and law enforcement for American citizens are taking a back seat to helping some illegal aliens in the world of Dick Durbin.

 

The next time someone tries to tell you why the government was shut down by the Democrats, read them Durbin's tweet.  It explains everything.
