ICE Is Already $1 Billion over Budget

Tuesday, June 17, 2025

Lawmakers say ICE's parent agency, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), is at risk of violating U.S. law if it continues to spend at its current pace ... Lawmakers who oversee DHS's appropriations say it could run out of money as soon as July, causing it to violate the Antideficiency Act.

Funding a police state takes money. Republicans will go over the budget for fascism, but will slash the budget when it comes to providing healthcare for poor people.

What do you expect when you send 8-10 agents to arrest a single pregnant woman?

What do you expect when the International spokesman for Depends(TM) let 12 million illegal aliens in our country from 2021 -2024?

The------------- hires illegal aliens when he isn't blowing Putin.

#3 screw you rightfootbuttons!

California is raising our taxes billions to pay for illegal immigrants healthcare even today!

Ice being over a billion actually saves money.

If that were true they wouldn't be having such a hard time finding and removing them.

You've been had, dips*&^.

Why? Because, as usual, you're stupid a*& doesn't know its a&& from a hole in the ground.

Biden didn't let 12 million in, dumbf*&^. There aren't even 12 million total in country.

And here was a record 2.5 million encounters. Which means they were stopped.

Finally, hilarious that this is the stupid s(*& you say when you support a POTUS notorious for wearing diapers and s*&^ting himself.

Your sense of humanity is unbelievable.

Also, since all of these raids are on working people, HOW does that positively impact the California economy?

How does instilling fear and anger promote economic stability?

Do sick people make a better car, pick berries faster or make schools safer?

You are a fiscal moron, not just a social parasite, imo.

As far as I can tell ICE is deliberately crashing our state economies.

ICE is an enemy agency, imo.

Excellent point. It will be interesting to see if ICE raids Musk's Starbase, TX, the state's newest town.

ICE, under the apparent control and directive of Advisor Stephen Miller.

Money well spent for once

#24 | Posted by THEBULL at 2025-06-19 05:04 PM

Yes... ICE is doing less enforcement while spending more money.

A true Trump Enterprise.
