The so-called “Big Beautiful Bill” by US President Donald Trump and the GOP is anything but beautiful. And extremely unpopular with the people. In view of growing concerns from voters about increasing hurdles when accessing programs such as Medicaid and Food Aid, massive displacements from poorer Americans and rich as well as extensive deregulation of industries such as crypto and AI tries to convince a new tactic to convince hesitant Ignoring all of this and concentrating on how much money the law of the Immigration and Customs Authority (ICE) is hired.
“The politics that this country will most likely go into bankruptcy is the flooding of the country with illegal immigration. In addition, the subsequent generous care of these migrants with social benefits. [One Big Beautiful Bill] Fixes this problem. So it has to be adopted, ”Vance wrote on Monday evening on X.
“Everything else-the evaluation of the congressional budget office, the right starting point, the small stuff of medicaid policy-is irrelevant compared to the ICE money and the provisions on immigration enforcement,” he added.
ICE billion instead of health care
The millions of people who are likely to lose their health insurance through the law would probably disagree with this.
The version of the law passed by the House of Representatives would give the ICE over $ 100 billion. For the construction of new immigration centers. The expansion of arrests. And deportations, the militarization of the border and the hiring of new civil servants.
Such a discharge for the immigration authority comes at a time when ICE exceeded its annual budget months before the end of the financial year. In May, Senator Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) Criticized the irresponsible expenditure policy of the Ministry of Homeland under Minister Kristi Noem during a hearing in the US Senate budget committee.
“They spend money as if they have no budget. They are about to be bankrupt for this financial year. And they ignore the immigration laws of this country. Convert a completely new immigration system that has hardly any relation to the laws that they should actually – to whom they are obliged by the oath of office,” said Murphy. “Your authority acts as if laws did not matter. As if the choice had given them a mandate to violate the constitution and the laws adopted by the congress. This mandate was not given to them.”
ICE goal: 3,000 detainees daily
Through the Reconciliation Act and the President’s policy, Republicans try to provide this mandate in the congress and the Trump government to provide the Ministry of Homeland and ICE. Stephen Miller, deputy chief of staff of the White House, has demanded that ICE arrest at least 3,000 migrants every day.
While the Reconciliation Act continues to run through the Senate, Trump and Noem traveled to Florida on Tuesday to visit the so -called “Alligator Alcatraz”. A migrant henstick center that was built in the inhospitable swamps of the Florida Everglades.
“We will teach them how to run away in front of an alligator,” said Trump before visiting the center. “Don’t run straight ahead,” added Trump. While he made a zigzag movement by hand to demonstrate how a prisoner may have to escape half a ton of reptiles.
This kind of insensitive cruelty is the focus of the government. Be it dealing with migrants or by dismissing the loss of health insurance of millions as insignificant “small stuff”.
