Genocide WeCry4Help It probably had such support because politicians get them too. It’s funny how when something affects people making the decisions they act much quicker and with more partisan agreement.

Senate passes bill meant to combat robocallsThe Senate has passed a bill that aims to combat the illegal robocalls torturing Americans.

As Trump relents on Puerto Rico and border funding, senators reach deal for $19.1 billion in disaster aidSenators reached a deal on a disaster aid package that was held up over immigration issues and President Trump's opposition to funds for Puerto Rico. The questions are: Will the House approve? And will the President sign it? More money that will not be used for what its needed.. .. more money going down the drain. I live in Puerto Rico, and the primary problem our government has, its that they dont know how to manage money. I appreciate the help, but the people of Puerto Rico will not see a dime. That's a lot of water.
