    I'll hold on to it because none of your links show the previous years security budget was cut, just the amount of increase requested. Therefore the security budget increased.
    It's ok if you disagree with me. I can't force you to be right.

    Congress cut $296 million from the State Department’s spending request

    In Left speak not getting the massive increase one asks for is a cut. Still, a couple of billion for embassy security appears to be lots of money. I wonder what that number includes.
    Call your state legislators and insist they approve the Article V convention of States to propose amendments.


    I pledge allegiance to the Constitution as written and understood by this nation's founders, and to the Republic it created, an indivisible union of sovereign States, with liberty and justice for all.

    Why is the safety of local students or anyone the job of the federal government? The feds are to keep the people safe from foreign nations and violence across state lines.

    The local schools are responsible. It's on them to do something.

    I'm all ears!
    It won't. The feds are not responsible for any local issue. Let the schools take care of their problems.

    Wrong. HRC was asked for more security and said they didn't need it. Read and understand the facts.
