Graph showing funding for ICE agents in 2025 dollars, adjusted for inflation and population growth, from 2016 through 2029. If the "big beautiful bill" passes, it would triple ICE funding.

Trump's "big beautiful bill" would triple funding for ICE agents, providing significantly greater ability to continue terrorizing people, ripping apart families, and disappearing people to prisons without due process.

Sam Brodey @sambrodey Follow As Senate passed BBB, Sen Angus King walked thru the GOP side of the floor and seemed to address individual members before telling them all, "shame on you" King then said it was "the most disgusting vote" he'd ever witnessed

That’s because approximately 37 million children in the United States are currently enrolled in Medicaid or the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP).

He Was Born in Philly and They Tried to Deport Him to Jamaica A Florida sheriff ignored proof of Peter Sean Brown’s U.S. citizenship and held him for ICE anyway. A federal court just ruled it was a blatant violation of his Fourth Amendment rights.

"This case highlights the significant threat posed to U.S. citizens by frequent ICE errors, which are exacerbated when local law enforcement agencies participate in immigration enforcement...”

🚨Christopher Miller authored the Dept of Defense objectives for PROJECT 2025.

Former acting defense secretary testifies he was trying to avoid another Kent State on Jan. 6 U.S. Rep. Carolyn Maloney, D-N.Y., will testify Wednesday that the "federal government was unprepared" for the Jan. 6 insurrection on the United States Capitol.

Christopher Miller, former Sec of DoD, didn’t deploy the Nat. Guard during the J6 insurrection because “sending troops to the Capitol would fan fears of a military coup or fuel conspiracies that advisers to the president were advocating martial law.”

I think we might know where all the missing Dem ballots went

This is Ethan Shaotran. He's one of Musk's DOGE takeover hackers
