I don't know how I got on the White House mailing list, probably from some letter I sent. Received this email from them earlier. I hit reply and unloaded. I'm sure it won't be read, but certainly made me feel better. Go for it.

Murdock gives 8 examples. Heres just one: A barrier between the Tucson, Ariz., sector and Nogales, Mexico, was erected in 2000.

In his inauguration speech, President Trump promised: We will follow two simple rules: Buy American and Hire American, White House Director of Trade and Manufacturing Policy Peter Navarro writes in Fox News. Today, the President will sign an executive orderStrengthening Buy American Preferences for Infrastructure Projectsthat will give another boost to these key pillars of his economic program.
In the Washington Examiner, Eddie Scarry writes that U.S. Border Patrol agents recently apprehended both an MS-13 member and an attempted murderer near the U.S.Mexico border. Both incidents happened in the southernmost part of Texas, in the Rio Grande Valley sector of the border, where illegal crossings are more than three times that of any other sector and where agents told me they are in dire need of a physical barrier wall.
President Donald Trump spoke Wednesday with the man the U.S. government recognizes as the legitimate leader of Venezuela even as turmoil continues in the oil-rich socialist country. About 50 countries have joined the United States in recognizing opposition leader Juan Guaido as acting president of the South American nation while Venezuelas dictator, Nicolas Maduro, tries to cling to power, Fred Lucas writes in The Daily Signal.
In an interview with The Daily Caller, President Trump harshly criticized Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam (D-VA) and Democratic state Delegate Kathy Trans advocacy of late-term abortion. I thought it was terrible, the President said, adding that this is going to lift up the whole pro-life movement like maybe its never been lifted up before.
