Why it matters: Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is already $1 billion over budget by one estimate, with more than three months left in the fiscal year. That’s alarmed lawmakers in both parties — and raised the possibility of Trump clawing funds from agencies to feed ICE.

    I’m sorry but TACO Don continues to flaunt the law without consequences. A crappy parade does not mean he has no support from theemilitary still willing to follow illegal orders

    You guys are making progress but cannot relent. So far the biggest damage to TACO has been caused by his own mediocrity and stupidity

      I’m not saying Trump isn’t awful, and things aren’t bad. I also clearly state democracy in USA isn’t safe yet.
      But Trump is failing more than he is succeeding.

      I am not American, but I really hope they will work to improve democracy. The concept of a president controlling the entire administration is both awful and not representative of the population. A democracy that result in a 2 party system is only barely a democracy.

          By the standards of what democracy is. Namely representing the will of the people. You simply can’t do that when there are only 2 options.

            so mild resistance and dirty looks that, in no significant way, are stopping Trump from destroying democracy and the world economy… got it
