With this budget, ICE alone would have nearly as large a detention operation as all 50 states' prison systems combined. Bigger budget than the Marine Corps. Police-state levels of spending
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.

When you read these stories, always remember Elon Musk called his own immigration status a "gray area" when he came to the U.S. as a student. Musk dropped out of school and started doing things his student visa didn't permit.

Elon Musk shared a call from conservative political commentator Ben Shapiro urging Trump to pardon Derek Chauvin, the former Minneapolis police officer convicted in the 2020 killing of George Floyd.

A question…

Wouldn't ending birthright citizenship mean that the only legal citizens would be those who have become legally naturalized?

As a whimsical Brit, I assume the traditional right of all Brits abroad to name anything in the world what we want and so hereby declare the final name.

Another pair of socks finished before I head to Massachusetts again tomorrow - for 5 weeks. Wish me luck and prayers for my mom and my family! These are the After Party socks by Beki Dickson, made in Must Stash Yarn Perfect Must Match in the color Woodstock. These actually fit my feet; that's a win!

I finally finished these socks. Unfortunately, I made them too long in the foot for my feet by a size and a half. If anyone wears a women’s size 9 and would like these, I'll send them to you. Otherwise, they will be resting until I can hear to find the ends to rip the toe back 1.5” 🤦🏽‍♀️
