@MyronGainesX The OBBB already included $156B extra for military on top of the $850B. Theres pleanty of money to replenish stockpiles already appropriated. That $200B will be used/sent to Israel. Fuck that!
@adame2kill4@InlandCaGuy 100% disagree. I think government guaranteed student loans in general have been a disaster because they have jacked up the price of college. I hated OBBB overall except for the grad loan changes. We actually saw tuition at a bunch of grad schools get lower for 26-27.
Murkowski said the structure of the ID requirements were too cumbersome and would restrict voting access - which is true.
Rather than dig in and fight for a fair bill, she’s happy to have those requirements if you exempt voters 65+
Hey @lisamurkowski if you know something is wrong, then it’s absolute cowardice to carve out your base and screw over all other American’s.
Try actually standing for something for once!
@JINVISIBLEWOMAN@4thOfJuly365 Same here! I thought my explanation of the OBBB tax ramifications would kill but guess what? It didn't. So now I just repost videos of chimpanzees scratching their butts, smelling it, and falling over. I receive no money for that either but the research is more fun.
@maziehirono Lying liar... ICE is already funded via OBBB until 2029. You are playing games with national security. Holding federal employees paychecks hostage using ICE as an imagined weapon. So do your damn job and fund DHS! All of it. Just more defund the police crap.
@MooreHomes1@GavinNewsom Apparently you don’t watch too closely or you wouldn’t have missed the Democrats trying to fund TSA and ever else save ICE and CBP…which are already funded through the OBBB…and REPUBLICANS VOTING NO
@LePapillonBlu2@donwinslow Republicans NOT working for the American people. Pass the bills that Dems and Reps agree on- funding TSA, FEMA, Coast Guard then go back and debate ICE which already received HUGE funding under OBBB. Who “wins” here- that answer is nobody.
@DavidD_Chapman If President Trump was Senate leader he would have had the votes and nuked the filibuster before the OBBB. This guys just a weakling who is unworthy of the moment in front of him & should step down
@SenSchumer@SenateGOP Give up your paycheck!!! Only fools don’t realize ICE is already funded under OBBB. Your grandstanding on mute points is embarrassing!
BEST IDEA EVER. TSA is not funded (ty dems) and many have to quit to find other jobs. So, I.C.E. is funded for the next 3 years (via the OBBB) - so, let's have @ICEgov at the airports to help TSA.
This is a PHENOMENAL IDEA: "What if President Trump announced that ICE agents were going to be supplementing TSA agents inside all of the airports."
The one KICKER that could cause Democrats to bend the knee immediately: "ICE agents are still being paid."
This would not only nduced wait times, but it would SURGE deportations and get them with their stuff already packed!
I support this.
