I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE. This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

While most Dems have focused on the draconian cuts to vital programs for those most in need, I have focused on the epic fiscal irresponsibility of this bill caused by massive tax cuts and huge spending increases in defense and DHS. Both equally important. There’s a lot to hate.
