- orwin 7mo agoIs this the new "payment package", so a bit less than 19B/year, or is this added to the 11B, and ICE funding is 30B/year?
- selectodude 7mo agoThe latter. It’s additional one time appropriations for additional agents and detention facilities in the One Big Beautiful Bill Act.

Edit out swipes. When disagreeing, please reply to the argument instead of calling names. "That is idiotic; 1 + 1 is 2, not 3" can be shortened to "1 + 1 is 2, not 3." Please don't fulminate. Please don't sneer, including at the rest of the community. Please respond to the strongest plausible interpretation of what someone says, not a weaker one that's easier to criticize.
