Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  (CNN) I te marama o Noema o te tau kua hipa, he nui te whakawhirinaki o te iwi o Amerika ki nga Reipa i te wa i hoatu ai e ratou te mana katoa o te Kaunihera. I hokona e ngā kaipōti te whakaaro ka whai mana te Kaunihera Reipa, ka āwhina i te akomanga waenganui, ka arotahi ki ngā take hira pēnei i ngā mahi me te ōhanga. Inaianei, i muri i nga marama e rua, kua pakaru taua whakaaro. I roto i ngā wiki e rua kua hipa, kua kite mātou i te Kaunihera Reipa e hanga ana, kātahi ka whakapiki ake, i tētahi raru tōrangapū mā te whakawehi kia kati te Tari Haumarutanga Whenua. Kāore he mahi nui ake a te kāwanatanga i te tiaki i te haumaru o te tangata. Heoi, kei te whakatārewatia e ngā Reipa tō mātou haumarutanga ā-motu hei tiaki i tō rātou ake haumarutanga tōrangapū. Ma te kore e whakarahi i te tahua moni a te DHS <unk> e pupuri ana i a ia me te tono kia whakahokia e te ture nga mahi manene a te Perehitini - kei te waiho e nga Reipa te kore o te oranga mo te neke atu i te 240,000 nga tane me nga wahine e mahi whakapehapeha ana hei kaimahi mo te Border Patrol, Transportation Security Administration me etahi atu umanga DHS. Ka whakakahoretia tonu te uru atu o ngā pirihimana ā-rohe ki ngā pūtea e āwhina ana i a rātou ki te haumaru i a tātou huarahi. Ko te Federal Emergency Management Agency me ētahi atu tari e urupare ana ki ngā parekura māori, pēnei i ngā ngaru nui o te hotoke, ka whakararuraru i a rātou mahi. Ko te mea katoa kia taea ai e te Rōpū Reipa te whai i ētahi tohu tōrangapū iti ki o rātau turanga. Engari ahakoa he mea whakamataku tēnei raru whakakorenga, ko te mea nui ake te whakamataku ko te āhua o tēnei kāhua kāwanatanga kāore i te pai te mahi kei te noho hei tauira ki te Pāti Reipa. Te āhua nei he nui ake te hiahia o te Rōpū Reipa ki te whawhai ki a rātou anō, ki te akiaki i tētahi kaupapa hei āwhina i ngā painga motuhake, me te whakatārewatanga ki te apa tino hōhonu o te rōpū, i te mahi mō te akomanga waenganui. Ko enei marama e rua kua pahure ake nei he mea whakama, he mahi kino ki to tatou whenua, a kaore te iwi o Amerika e wareware wawe he aha te aitua poauau i puta mai i nga Republicans i te Kaunihera.
Ben Lujan: I pōti ngā Amerikana i tētahi Kaunihera GOP i runga i te kupu whakaari mo te whakahaere tōtika e aro nui ana ki te akomanga waenganui. E ai ki a ia he whakaaro noa iho. I runga i te pūtea o te DHS, me ētahi atu take, kua arotahi te GOP ki te whāngai i ōna rākau tino nui me ngā painga motuhake.
