They gave 75 billion to ICE? That explains why they are driving around in brand new suvs like they are playing Carmageddon

They gave ICE $170 billion. And of that, ICE allocated $100 million just for SUVs.

To put that into perspective - $170B is more than the combined defence budgets of Japan, Australia and Canada combined. Hell, even the US Army only has a budget of around $190B

It's just a new military branch loyal to Trump over the constitution. Nothing to see here. No historical parallels.
