re: ICE 3rd largest defense budget in world after BBB passage

ICE going to hire all those 1000s of agents by 2028 or are is will most of the budget be going to private contractors who over-charge the govt? Do you see where Im going with this? the potential for overreach with this budget is ridiculous.

Former Blackwater CEO Erik Prince has spearheaded a plan to privatize and offshore U.S. immigration detention by using El Salvador’s new mega-prison complex. The proposal obtained by POLITICO, calls for transporting up to 100,000 detainees from U.S. custody to El Salvador. Under the plan, Prince’s new entity (called “2USV”) would partner with El Salvador to round up “100,000 of the worst criminal offenders” currently in U.S. prisons, hold them initially at a 10,000-bed camp for processing, and then fly them to a Salvadoran prison for long-term incarceration. The targeted population is described as “criminal illegal aliens,” meaning non-citizens with criminal convictions, though Prince has also pitched involving U.S. citizens in some scenarios.


Under the proposal, private contractors would handle nearly every step of the operation. Prince’s team (comprised of military and defense contractors) seeks a lucrative government contract to locate, capture, detain, and deport these individuals on behalf of the U.S. To do this, 2USV asked for access to federal law enforcement and immigration databases to help identify deportable inmates across U.S. prisons. The contractors even want a role in immigration court proceedings: If a detainee lacks a final deportation order, 2USV would “facilitate a hearing before an immigration judge” to resolve any asylum claims. They also propose negotiating plea deals with U.S. prosecutors – offering prisoners reduced sentences if they agree not to fight deportation and accept removal orders. In effect, Prince’s group aims to replace or augment parts of ICE and immigration courts with a privately run enforcement arm, expediting removals outside the normal system.

Well sure he can stop it. He can stop it easier with a fricken wall. The wall being completed will enable us to reduce border agents by 2/3. Do you know how much that will save? Here is what is expensive, the removal of all that are already here. You know this but avoid it like the plague.

Not much of this is how much the ice budget is increasing....this isn't saving it's additional costs...

Nick is a fricking retard.

ICE budget in 2024: $10 billion

ICE budget after OBBBA: $17 billion / year for 10 years. Not $170 billion/yr

C’mon people. Be better than the engagement farmers.

We will make all that back if ICE simply performs its mission.

I do believe in both, but the need to empower a large army is a bit ridiculous.

Well, we’ve been invaded by an army of 20,000,000, so you can shove your sanctimony up your chute.
