    Seems like a lot of tax dollars being wasted, as well as a ton of taxed income no longer coming in either. How anyone thinks any of this is a good idea is beyond crazy.

      As a non American, I also wonder how much of money will be lost due to them suing.

      This is why I fucking hate paying federal taxes in California. They want to tax me 34% so they can kidnap people, start wars, etc.

        So then stop paying them. The IRS has been gutted by DOGE; they don’t have the resources to pursue tax dodgers anymore.

    Except “crossing the border makes them illegal” is conservative logic. Every one of them is a criminal in their eyes

      You gotta do some trolling with that. Something along the lines of, “whoa wanting a better life is a crime? The woke left have gone too far”

    On Monday, June 23, ICE’s detention level was — on paper at least — at over 140% capacity, since Congress last allocated 41,500 detainee beds for the agency, the figures show.
