Ryan: Trump's Termination Of DACA Program 'Fulfills A Promise' He Made

Source: Talking Points Memo




By ESME CRIBB Published SEPTEMBER 5, 2017 11:32 AM

House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-WI) on Tuesday said President Donald Trump’s decision to end the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program “fulfills a promise.”

“Ending this program fulfills a promise that President Trump made to restore the proper role of the executive and legislative branches,” Ryan said in a statement.

Attorney General Jeff Sessions on Tuesday announced the DACA program was “being rescinded” and will not accept applications starting Wednesday.

“It is important that those affected have clarity on how this interim period will be carried out,” Ryan said.

If Trump promised to travel around the country raping their daughters, they would leave their doors unlocked and a bucket of KFC on the nightstand.

If Ryan is concerned about "the proper role of the executive and legislative branches", he sure has been remarkably silent one all of Trump's EOs. Pardon me if I call his bullshit for what it is, racism.

When tRump is impeached, quits or imprisoned, we'll all remember your shameless ass-kissing for all of eternity.

for many years, my Oregon home has been a little slice of paradise.
this weekend, our many active forest fires turned the sky smokey and the sun orange. when i walked out the door this morning, there was a layer of ash on my car. the air smelled like a campfire. my little slice of paradise looks like a blasted hellscape, like a preview of our upcoming nuclear war on the Korean peninsula.

i'm really pissed off. Bizarro World sucks.

They can't go to a country they know nothing about and start over. Will the schools transfer their credits? Are they even adults yet?

What happens when he wants to cut Social security and Medicaid? Which he said he wouldn't do.
Ryan will call that fiscal responsibility

I did think for a second there, longer terms, I made a mistake, so please forgive my lapse as I am not as perfect a human as a lot here feel they are...I knew this.. Just too much going on and tired of all ryans hypocritical pronouncements and BS. As many times as he and that other asswipe bohner, that was house speaker-republiKKKan before this present POS speaker of the White Peoples Party, held up a real POTUS, for 8 long years, I'm just sick of it.

President Obama's agenda would have helped all americans not just some ameriKKKans as the openly white supremacist GOP is now openly stating as a major goal and is being led by a racist white supremacist pig, which should be renamed Grand Old White Peoples Party, the repthugliKKKan party.

Off for a month and back for 12 days. 12 days!!!!!! Are you kidding me? They need to be paid part time wages and get their health care plans revoked.
