Trump's "anti-weaponization fund" torpedoes ICE funding deal - Axios
Overview
A Senate package to fund ICE and Border Patrol collapsed after Republicans balked at the nearly $1.8 billion anti-weaponization fund, prompting a heated two-hour meeting and delaying a vote. Sen. John Thune has since said the DOJ fund will need to be changed to unlock an immigration deal, indicating leadership sees revisions as the path to revive the package. The Justice Department's one-page memo attempting to explain beneficiaries and payouts has not eased senators' concerns.
