Hey, so #ICE. ICE's budget surged from around $10 billion annually to an estimated $85 billion total because of the Big Bullshit Bill, making it larger than ALL other federal law enforcement agencies COMBINED.

For scale reference, the entire whole-ass US #Marine Corps is $53.72 billion. Marines y’all. Jarheads. First in, last out, see the hill, take the hill, HooRah Marines get less money than ICE.

You know one of the fun things they’re spending your money on? A billion dollar slush fund for bounty hunters! Who doesn’t love crazy jacked up masked thugs with no training, no badge, and guns terrorizing the people? How we tell them apart from ICE, I dunno.

ICE also spent your money by giving #Palantir a $30 million no-bid contract to develop ImmigrationOS, a new surveillance platform to provide near real-time tracking of people. Since January 2025, Palantir has secured almost $100 million in contracts from ICE and Customs and Border Protection.

Feel safer?
