THE REPUBLICAN AGENDA: COSTS. CHAOS. CORRUPTION.

🚨🚨NEW DATA from the Senate Budget Committee: Republicans are moving to give ICE and Border Patrol $70 BILLION, but the agencies are already sitting on $100 BILLION.

Senator Jeff Merkley is demanding answers about the Navy’s ‘Trump battleship.’ The American people deserve to know that every dollar spent on national security actually makes our country safer—not disappear into the coffers of the military industrial complex.

So, Trump wants to spend:

$1.5 TRILLION on the Pentagon’s budget
$1.2 TRILLION on his ‘Golden Dome’
$70 BILLION more on ICE and border patrol chaos
$1 BILLION on his ballroom

But he can’t find any money to help families afford health care, child care, or housing?

Congress should focus on lowering costs and helping families make ends meet. Instead, Republicans are trying to ram through a partisan bill to fund Trump's ballroom and a rogue ICE agency that already received 7x its annual funding last year.

So, Trump wants to spend:

$1.5 TRILLION on the Pentagon’s budget
$1.2 TRILLION on his ‘Golden Dome'
$70 BILLION more on ICE and border patrol chaos
$1 BILLION on his ballroom

There is NOTHING in Republicans’ reconciliation bill that makes it easier to afford your rent, your groceries, or a tank of gas.

Are Republican politicians really this disconnected from reality?

05/17/2026

🚨Senate Democrats forced Republicans to strip the $1 BILLION for Trump’s ballroom from their ICE/Border Patrol funding bill. While we expect Republicans to appease Trump and redraft, Democrats will fight any new provision. Taxpayers shouldn’t fund Trump’s gold-plated ballroom.
