Trump’s ‘Big, Beautiful Bill’ to give ICE a larger budget than most of the world’s militaries
In all, the version of the bill that passed the Senate earlier this week would see the agency receive around $100billion by 2029, $45billion for detention facilities, the same for border wall operations and a further $14billion to fund mass deportations.
This would put ICE’s budget above that of Israel, Italy, Brazil and the Netherlands.
It is going to be his private SS, only beholden to Trump. He can use it exactly in any way he wants. Besides the disappearings going to massively increase, they will be an armed military force that he can let loose on protestors and anybody considered to be dissidents.
Frustrating that there is not a single word in this article about the massive ICE budget increase.

I have no idea who this source is, but it’s an interesting headline. https://www.lbc.co.uk/usa/politics/ice-budget-big-beautiful-bill-donald-trump/
There’s no way they need a budget that big for just dealing with illegal immigrants. They must be planning on going after other groups too.
LGBT? Democrats? People of Colour? Scientists? Anyone who disagrees with Trump?
We know where this is headed. I’m waiting for the Americans to figure it out before it’s too late.
