re: If so few people are illegally crossing the border, why the huge increase in ICE spending?

Assuming that each of the 20 million illegals released into the country during Biden's term got 10K in travel, housing and benefits
Why would you assume this?

As far as I know they aren’t deporting Trump supporters, so that’s wrong.
Without Trump supporters the country would look like a third world country you should thank us

The assumption is that every single person who crossed stayed in the country. I know that many people were crossing back and forth, so it's hard to believe every single person that crossed the border stayed here. I know plenty did, but not all of them.
We all know the ICE budget will never be reduced.

The bill also includes funding to hire 10,000 new ICE agents and boost detention capacity to an average daily population of 100,000.
And yet......they cap the total number of immigration judges at 800 by 2028. We currently have 700. The bottle neck is in the courts. For some reason, this funding completely drops the ball in addressing that issue.

The big bastard included $45 billion for new detention centers and $29.9 billion for enforcement and deportation operations. This represents a 265% increase in the detention budget and a 300% increase in the overall ICE budget. The bill also includes funding to hire 10,000 new ICE agents and boost detention capacity to an average daily population of 100,000.
Because the problem has been allowed to grow so great that now that someone is actually dealing with illegal immigration, an excessive amount of new agents and detention centers are needed to handle the extra activity.

Current estimates are that there are ~11,000,000 illegals in the US. Deporting 700 per day equates to 255,500 per year. At that rate it would take over 40 years to deport them all and that's simply far too long.

This is how evil Biden’s plan was. He wanted to make it so we would never spend this money because the price would be too high. Now we have to way over hire for ICE, Border Patrol, DHS, etc, to do anything about it. It will probably take over a decade to recover and then we will again have way too many on the payroll.

Why do you think this wasn't addressed?

You can't be serious with this question.

What is 20 million times 10k? 200 billion.
Meanwhile…
LINK ]A new House Homeland Security Committee report has found that the ongoing migrant crisis at the southern border could cos taxpayers hundreds of billions of dollars each year, as Republicans blame what they say are ‘open borders’ policies from the Biden administration.
“It cites studies by the hawkish Center for Immigration Studies, which found that the annual cost to care for and house illegal immigrants could reach up to $451 billion. It separately cites estimates from the Federation for American Immigration Reform, which advocates for lower immigration levels, that the annual net burden as of 2022 is more than $150 billion. “The report points to health care costs, including Medicaid expenditures for illegal immigrants estimated at over $5 billion a year, the costs of the fentanyl crisis, law enforcement costs, and costs for states to educate migrant children. It also points to the costs of housing and sheltering— particularly in the enormous costs seen in cities like New York City where tens of thousands of migrants have traveled after being released into the U.S., and the costs to ranchers and local businesses near the border. New York City Mayor Eric Adams earlier this year estimated the city’s crisis alone could cost $12 billion by 2025.”
In 2022.. in the middle of Biden’s term… while the spigot was still wide open, the cost was already 150 billion.
Either the amount paid per illegal is low or the number is. You pick.
