From our political correspondent Dorothy Dawe:
Trump has backed himself up against the wall.
He said he'd be proud to shutdown the government, but he really didn't know what that would mean. He had no concept of the impact a shutdown would have on American citizens. Instead, he just thought he could use hundreds of thousands of government workers as pawns in his effort to extort five billion in American tax dollars to fund a ridiculous and unnecessary border wall which he promised that Mexico would pay for.
The press has been unrelenting lately in calling him and his press secretary out on their lies. For example, Trump and Huckabee continue to toss out the number 4000 when they attempt to frighten the public about terrorists attempting to enter the country -- but only SIX were detained at the southern border.
Now tonight Trump is going to speak to the nation about his false crisis at the border -- and we obtained an exclusive transcript of his speech:

That's it: "Emergency! Everybody to get from street." That's all he's got.
There really is no respite from Trump's ignorance -- and that called to mind Emmett Lee Dickinson's poem "Why should we worry -- why indeed" (below on the left). Dickinson's poem inspired third cousin Emily to pen her poem "Why should we hurry -- why indeed?" (below on the right).
| By Emmett Lee Dickinson: Why should we worry – why indeed When every day he lies He is detested equally By all humanity No respite from his ignorance That seems to know no end With no respect for law And blind conformity Besets the clan For this con man – | By Emily Dickinson: Why should we hurry – why indeed? When every way we fly We are molested equally By immortality. No respite from the inference That this which is begun, Though where its labors lie A bland uncertainty Besets the sight This mighty night – |
