President Donald Trump vetoed a bill designed to block his emergency declaration at the Southern Border on Friday, in a ceremony at the White House.

“Today, I am vetoing this resolution,” Trump said. “Congress has the freedom to pass this resolution and I have the duty to veto it. And I’m very proud to veto it.”

    Dear Mr. Engineer,
    More than one of us will carry the ladders, and more than one of us will raise the ladders. And then more than one of us will use the ladders.

    And in case you think that we will build the ladders right in front of the wall within clear view of the US Border Patrol, you are mistaken. We will buy ladders near by because capitalism works on both sides of the border whether people as smart as you believe it or not.

    Signed,
    Desperate and Seeking Refuge
