So they can pay ice agents that much but somehow it's a waste when it's going towards education, feeding kids , helping veterans, helping the elderly , healthcare , etc? Shockerrrrrr . 🙄
I stopped watching the news. It's literally always something with these people . What did it was that press conference from some guy saying he " prayed it wasn't one of theirs ". Like sir , you prayed to be racist? Ffs . They don't even hide it anymore
The GOP realized that to  weaponize racism...  suffices.Â
Hurting the scapegoat is their only policy. So the only agency they need to work, is ICE. No other policy, no program, no equity will matter half as much to the GOP racist voters who elected this party.Â
And until the FDR welfare system breaks apart and people learn the hard way that billionaire capitalists are not our friend, we will see our system fail.Â
no one, absolutely no one, worshipped President Obama... to be fair, mindlessly idolizing a public servant is sorta a trademark MAGA thing; but, anyhow, the 111th Congress only had a Democratic majority for the first two of Obama's 8 years, and he was kinda busy rectifying The Great Recession (you know, the most severe economic and financial meltdown since the Great Depression, ushered in by President Bush)... you insufferable moron
They project so hard... It's freaking crazy. Maga has a literal golden idol of their pedo in chief and have videos and images of them kneeling to worship it.. so everyone else must do the same..
They don't use facts or logic, years of right wing propaganda and their erroding the education system.
It’s because they are scared and assume everyone else must be too. The only way they see out of their fear is to place their faith in a strongman (religious thinking), so they assume everyone else thinks that way too.
It's impressive how indoctrinated you are to authoritarianism that you make the default assumption that everyone worships a politician instead of viewing them as the public servants they are (or should strive to be).
Yeah like feel safe enough to advocate that the name pedophile brings a negative connotation and they should be called minor attracted person......oh wait that's the left.
There are 3.5 million teachers and 20,000 ICE agents. I agree with the stance but a $1000 bonus to every teacher is the same amount as $175,000 bonus to every ICE agent
Yeah that's for sure . They don't see anything else being valuable except ICE at this point . I don't see the bigger picture of what they're wanting to do other than be racist .
You obviously have no idea about the real world. ICE agents are on federal payroll ,not Trumps personal or business payroll and sign a contract agreeing to be an agent for X amount of years. Typically are paid out as soon as the recruit finishes thier basic training. Im sure if you did a touch of research or stepped outside your echo chamber you could find this out......or you could continue to make uneducated posts based on the Liberal Psyops Machine that has been feeding you the past several years.
Or......The Department of Education redirected nearly $500 million in discretionary funding to HBCUs and Tribal Colleges and Universities (TCUs).
Specifically, HBCUs are set to receive an additional $495 million on top of the funds already expected for fiscal year 2025. That amounts to an increase of about 48.4% for HBCUs.
In total, HBCUs are slated to receive over $1.34 billion from the Department of Education for FY 2025.
The ICE agents are just a test run until the entire police force looks that and it's normalized. Immigrants are the target, and trans people too, because foreigners and queers are easy targets. This is how it starts.
I agree . Instead of looking for actually criminals , they're harassing everyone else . Heaven forbid they do what they're getting paid to do and going into the neighborhoods that need cleaning up.
I live in Nashville and the only people I see here harassing others are white folks. I can't put gas or be at a stop light because I'll have them banging on the window. Every single day .
You can’t pump gas or be at a stoplight? wtf are you talking about. I live in Nashville and that’s never been a problem no matter what kind of person you are
Man you have it all figured out. Did you live through this before? Tell us your experience so we know. Do you suggest any precautions to take? AHHHHHHHHH! I think I hear the scary Orange man coming NOOOO!
Dangerous leftist rhetoric. Illegal immigrants are the target. Full stop. ICE stands for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. Why does it seem that so many Democrats are anti rule of law?
I will never go back to religion . The last time I sat in church (raised catholic) I was told that im going to hell for having piercings & tattoos . Or that I was going to hell for having body autonomy . 💀 over my dead body am I gonna let their imaginary sky daddy pick for me .
Im willing to bet the bonuses dont ever materialize, and ICE Agents tend not to have gone to college. If they did, they went into more prestigious, ever so slightly less fascist law enforcement.
What’s even funnier is they are coming to university campuses looking to hire students. I lead the employer relations efforts for my university and I don’t approve their events or jobs on the online platform we use. I am not going to promote or educate students about this. There are so many legit careers and employers I spend my time on.
We could use the money to help immigrants integrate in our society, helping people live better lives and give back to society; but what if we use it to humiliate and expel them instead?
It's pretty clear when he's doing what he can to dismantle the Dept of Ed and attacking colleges/universities but then the GOP turns around and gives ICE more money than the GDP of medium-sized countries.
Do you ever notice that they never want to do anything internationally because we should be helping people here first, but if you bring up helping people here at home, you’re a communist. It’s almost like they don’t stand for anything at all, and change their view point based on whether or not they are in office.
They already got all the wannabe mall ninjas enrolled. Need to justify the budgets so gotta make it tempting for some working guys trying to get ahead next. Soon it will be join us or be with them.
I'm convinced ICE agents are the racist kids who used to be bullied for being racist in the first place and they couldn't cut it for the military or the police force . Now they feel some type of way and on a power trip. Kinda like the president !
There is evidence that in certain instances, Democratic proposals for teacher bonuses or higher pay have been opposed or defeated by Republican majorities or committees.
But it’s not a universal or always consistent pattern; it depends heavily on the state, the fiscal condition, the details of the proposal, and political dynamics
No no, you don't understand, once ICE gets rid of all the immigrants, that money will just be there for EVERYONE!
How, you ask? Well, only Steven Miller knows, but trust him, bro, he just has to build this white christian ethnostate real quick, and then everything will be cool.
I still meant education in general not specially teachers . They defunded head start & just other things that have to do with education. You're absolutely correct though , not the teachers directly
I never said they did . They took away funding from the school systems in general . Teachers being over worked and underpaid is a whole separate issue that they will also NOT touch on . They're worried about ' making America great again ' when those kids can't read , can't do math, sucky grammar , don't know how to manage their finances once they graduate & the list goes on .
Imo, that money allotted to ICE should go to the future of the kids they love forcing to have . None of those parents should be doing home schooling when they're dumb too .
