   This is not the amount of money you request if you are trying to close the US border.

   This is the amount you request if you’re creating an army of brownshirts to terrorize the domestic population. https://newsie.social/@ProPublica/114347768609506770

     For comparison, this is 20% the size of the annual budget for the •entire US military•, the largest and most overfunded military in the world.

     20% of global US military operations. To “secure the border.” Uh huh. Right.
