In this year’s appropriations process, Trump and Republicans will be seeking another massive increase in military spending - $450B.
DOD budget was $870B in 2024. They want it to be $1.5T next year, nearly double in 2 years, with the national debt already accelerating at $38.5T.

If you are a federal agent for the Trump regime you can shoot and kill someone while wearing a mask and you will never be prosecuted, fired or disciplined and nobody will be allowed to know your name. You are free to carry on like nothing happened. That’s Trump’s America.

The DHS Form-205, a “warrant” of removal/deportation, is signed by an ICE official, not a judge. That’s precisely why it does not meet the Fourth Amendment standard.

JD Vance: "Nobody is talking about doing immigration enforcement without a warrant. We're talking about different types of warrants that exist in our system. Typically in the immigration system, those are handled by administrative law judges. So we're talking about getting warrants from them."
