Congress Building Actual Wall Between Republicans And Democrats

"Tensions between Republicans and Democrats on the House Intelligence Committee have reportedly become so hostile that GOP members of the committee are planning to build a literal wall separating the two parties’ staffers.

The partition is expected to be constructed this spring in the committee’s secure spaces, according to CBS News.

Some Republican members of the committee said they were unaware of the plans for the wall. Rep. Mike Conaway (R-Texas) suggested that the idea came from Chairman Rep. Devin Nunes (R-Calif.)

"I'm not part of that decision," Conaway told CBS. "You've got to talk to Devin. I don't know what they're trying to do one way or the other."

Rep. Tom Rooney (R-Fla.) told CBS that the relationship and trust between Republicans and Democrats on the committee is “poison,” but strongly denied knowing about the wall.

“I swear to God I didn’t know that,” he said.”*
