I just did the math. Based on 2022 numbers ICE will spend enough to pay the entire budget of the of the 70 largest school districts in the United States. Places like Dallas, Miami, NYC, Chicago, Houston. Atlanta, Charleston.
This does not include any state and local money spent pushing the administration's agenda. it does not include other parts of DHS. it's just the jack booted thugs of ICE
$170,000,000,000

One of the most damning quotes comes out of the mouth of the #ukGovernor of the #BankOfEngland, a "Sir" #MontaguNorman who in the late 1930s said "We must lend #Germany 230,000,000 DM, it may never be repaid but such a loss it would be less of a loss than the fall of #nazism."

Someone should probably make an "#alwaysHasBeen" meme about #centralBanks.
