The Department of Homeland Security has requested an extra $2 billion to meet its needs by the end of September

Immigration and Customs Enforcement could run out of money as soon as next month amid the Trump administration’s ramped-up efforts to deport unauthorized immigrants.

While there are more than three months left in the fiscal year, one estimate has found that the agency is already $1 billion over budget, according to Axios. Legislators in both parties have raised concerns about the speed at which the agency is spending its funds, which may prompt Donald Trump to seek additional funds from other agencies to support his deportation efforts.

Lawmakers have stated that the department responsible for ICE, the Department of Homeland Security, overseen by Secretary Kristi Noem, could violate the law if it continues to spend at current levels.

    … ok so I had to look up what the heck that means, and found this article by The Independent that explained that

    According to the dictionary site Merriam-Webster, “86” means to "to throw out,” or “get rid of,” and derives from a 1930s slang term for “sold out.” The number 47 is believed to refer to President Trump, as the 47th president.

    Oh 47 is believed to refer to Trump? 😀

    Also, fuck me it really activated my almonds to see Loomer and Gabbard pretend to be shocked by this to the extent that Gabbard suggested jailing Comey:

    Conservative MAGA pundit Laura Loomer also expressed her shock on X.

    “WOW! Former FBI Director James Comey just posted this on his Instagram 2 hours ago, with the caption “cool shell formation on my beach walk”. It’s a pic of shells in the form of “86 47”. This is a call for the assassination of President Trump by the former FBI Director!,” she said.

    Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard said she felt that Comey should be jailed for the post

    Conservatives call for the murder of leftists (ie anyone left of the Strasserites, and even they would probably be too “woke” for them) all the fucking time – eg Vance has publicly endorsed an author who wrote a book saying that leftists aren’t even human but should be tortured and murdered en masse – and those fucking inbred plastic cunts have the gall to cry about fucking sea shells?

    edit:

    About Vance’s totally normal and acceptable views:

    Never forget that this is now mainstream conservatism. They literally want to murder you.
