Cancer research vs. terrorizing the populace. Golf claps all around you GOP psychos.
ICE *already* can't meet their detainment numbers without rounding up children, veterans, people born in the U.S., people with no criminal records, people at immigration hearings, plus academics and visitors with valid visas.

So who do they plan to detain with >10x the budget?

The answer is: you.
If the GOP reconciliation bill passes, ICE gets through FY2029:

- $45 billion for detention, on top of the current annual budget of $3.4 billion
- $14.4 billion for transportation and removal, on top of the current annual budget of $750 million
- $8 billion for hiring/retention
- Billions more.

“Dad, you gave me the car keys, how dare you make me drive that car into the ditch!”
Biden and Buttigieg celebrated their infrastructure bill. 1.2 TRILLION dollars. The largest infrastructure package known to man.

They claimed it was going to change America.

They spent less than 1 percent of the money on fixing our air traffic control system.

They ignored (cont in image...)

Do not normalize children dying from measles. Measles was previously eliminated in the US, thanks to vaccines.

When children die from measles, it means that adults have catastrophically failed to protect them because they have rejected basic science.

The unhinged Trump news conference that ended the moment L.A.'s wildfires erupted revealed both our wildly unserious leadership, but also how the real anti-climate agenda is masked by his Greenland imperial bluster

I presume most Democrats are done with the pearl clutching that brought us to this second Trump term, but @newyorker.com isn’t! Read one of the worst takes on the Biden pardon of Hunter.

By granting clemency to his son, the President put his family above the American people.
