President Donald Trump’s "Make America Great Again" rally in Grand Rapids tomorrow night will be his first major appearance since the summary of the Mueller investigation reportedly cleared the president and his campaign of colluding with Russia. Trump supporters are more amped up than ever as Executive Director of the Kent County GOP told FOX 17 that news of the conclusions of the Mueller investigation will fuel an already energetic crowd at the rally. Meanwhile, Michigan Democrats in Congress aren't as quick to say that the investigation is actually over. They want the full Mueller report and its underlying documents to be made public. The rally will be held at Van Andel Arena at 7:00 pm Thursday. Trump came to Michigan several times during his run in the 2016 election. He won all but eight counties in 2016. Muskegon and Kalamazoo counties were the only two counties in West Michigan won by Democrat Hillary Clinton. Poster Comment: Will President Trump be sucking up to Justin Amash trying to get his endorsement, or will he blast Amash and endorse some lightweight mainstream GOP neocon replacement? Stay tuned to the Grand Rapids Rally for further developments.

Hondope, who is Justin Amash? Sounds like potatoes wiff gravy.
The House on Thursday passed a stopgap government funding bill by a 217-185 vote that would stave off a partial government shutdown. Its inclusion of $5.7 billion in border wall funding, however, likely makes it dead on arrival in the Senate, leaving both ends of Pennsylvania Avenue without a backup plan as President Trump digs his heels in on his demands for wall funding. Here are the eight House Republicans who voted against the measure. Rep. Justin Amash (R-Mich.) Amash, an outspoken fiscal conservative and member of the House Freedom Caucus, was one of the two among the group, including several firebrands, to vote against the measure and oppose border wall funding. “This massive, wasteful spending bill—stuffed with unrelated items—passed 217-185. It’s amazing how some wall funding causes my fellow Republicans to embrace big government. Watch out if Democrats attach wall funding to Medicare for All. The bill could be called Medicare for Wall,” he said about the stopgap bill.

That's plenty bad, but I believe that Amnesty for Wall is what they're after. Even worse!
