  • From the article, the family was driving from Rio Grande to Houston for her treatment, going through an immigration checkpoint, as they have done in the past but this time the entire family was detained and deported on the spot.

    Generally people with family who have citizenship and noncriminals are all exceptions, they used to be called undocumented instead of illegals because even undocumented workers pay taxes in the USA. Not anymore, now anybody and everybody is at risk of deportation. They’re even discussing removal of citizenship from whoever they like, as they attempted in Trump’s last term.

    It is worth noting that because of this policy the ICE is actually less effective at catching actual criminals.










  • Specifically, this action talked about in the article is an addition to the GOP spending bill which is awaiting vote in the senate OR upon filibuster could be handed back to the house for reconciliation.

    The bill also cuts medicare, agriculture, education, and commerce investments.

    They’re looking to halve the deficit by cutting 2 Trillion in spending so that they can extend their TCJA tax cuts which adds 4.5 trillion net loss for the government.
