This is literally a GOVERNMENT PONZI SCHEME. Tax payers pay the tariff and then they get a partial return so they continue to put more money into the fraudulent scheme. The tax payer thinks the tariffs are making them money when it was their money to begin with.

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.
