Sen. Merkley says immigration enforcement agencies are still sitting on $95 billion from the OBBB in addition to the $70 billion immigration enforcement bill just passed "Of the $75 billion provided to ICE in OBBBA, $62 billion remain. The Secure America Act provided another $38.5 billion. Of the $65 billion provided to CBP in OBBBA, $33 billion remain. The Secure America Act provided another $26 billion"
To George and Laura, Bill and Hillary — we're grateful for your friendship, counsel, and devotion to this country. And to Joe and Jill, thank you for being on this journey with us.
The American people deserve to know that Trump’s proposed 2027 budget would run up a $2.2 TRILLION deficit next year. Not very fiscally responsible.
Oct 2025: Trump — “100 percent by me and some friends of mine.” Dec 2025: Trump — “We’re donating a building that’s approximately $400 million” March 2026: Trump — “This is taxpayer-free. We have no taxpayer putting up 10 cents” May 2026: Trump — “All of this is paid for by myself…We are making a gift. This is a gift. This is not going to be paid for by the taxpayer.” Today: Over $300M from tax-paying families

@HistoryBoomer The bottom 50 sharing 7 cupcakes between them seems like the part of the analogy that Dems should focus on.
A generation or two ago, it was common for presidents to refuse to enter the oval office without a suit coat (except rare moments like a heat wave or illness). They felt those hallowed grounds were too dignified for anything less. I liked that much better than whatever this is.👇
Social Security's cliff is getting closer, and the One, Big, Beautiful Bill made it bigger. nytimes.com/2026/06/12/opi…
@JessicaBRiedl Rhetorically, those are both versions of taxing income that's currently untaxed above $250k
@JessicaBRiedl The Sanders proposal is more than just uncapping wages -- it's also imposing the tax on the Gingrich/Edwards passthroughs (currently not hit by the payroll tax) and capital income
This is insane. Last month, families saw the largest jump in prices since 2023, and Trump's only response is: "I love it."
@mredmond88 CBO thought it was (slightly) positive based on the daily statements. It wasn't until the monthly Treasury statement came out with more granularity that we learned it was instead slightly negative
The Monthly Treasury Statement confirms that net tariff revenue for May was zero -- $22 billion of revenue and $22 billion of refunds.
ICE's annual appropriations prohibit this type of records destruction. But the ECM facility has been funded through annual Department of Defense funding and ICE's reconciliation funding, which do not carry this limitation. (2/3)
GAO just published a must-read report on East Camp, Montana, the 5,000-person ICE camp outside El Paso. The Army and ICE rushed to build this facility in 2025. The report documents repeated financial waste and violations of ICE's own detention standards. Including a detainee homicide where the contractor destroyed evidence related to the event. (1/3)
Because Congressional Republicans chose to leave out the typical restrictions on ICE & CBP funding, this money can be used to shackle pregnant women and to destroy evidence of death or sexual assault in ICE/CBP facilities. Why did Republicans leave out the typical restrictions?
BREAKING: House passes $70 billion in funding for ICE and CBP, making both subagencies immune from shutdowns and future funding battles for three years. (Unless Congress passes rescissions.) The vote was as close as it could be: 214-212.
The Social Security 75-year shortfall got 16% larger in today's report. More than a quarter of that increase was Republicans' One Big Beautiful Bill. Another third was immigration changes: removing people who pay into Social Security and have more children
🚨The Republicans’ dangerous Big, Ugly Betrayal Law savagely guts health care and food assistance programs, and today we see the data that this bill caused the Social Security retirement trust fund to be insolvent sooner—in 2032—just six years from now. budget.senate.gov/ranking-member…
I added it up for all the other sickos out there: The Senate has endured 2 days, 18 hours, and 12 minutes of vote-a-rama this Congress.
From CBO's monthly budget review: Net tariff revenues for May were close to zero -- tariff refunds were the same as total tariff revenue.
