Someone please educate me! Listening to the top of the hour news feeds they state that SNAP/WICS benefits can’t be handed out because of the lack of funds. All of my taxes are still being collected so how can they be out of money?
Is it staff not available to work the machines or what? But they are going to dole out partial payments through a supplemental cache of money.
Federal revenues are distributed based upon congressional authorizations and appropriations. Those allocations and appropriations are generally of an annual basis. Should the budget time out without either new budgets or a continuing resolution allowing expenditures at current budget levels, the money sits in a big digital pile. In other words, no one has the authority to use those as of yet unappropriated funds for any purpose requiring congressional action. The current "clean" continuing resolution would continue last year's appropriations at the current spending rate until the passage of either yet another CR or a budget. Using contingency funds is legally complex and the administration has asked the two judges demanding their use, how to proceed, though they are using those funds to pay about half the requirement.

First, they ran out of your tax dollars several months ago as we are now using borrowed money. Google Federal revenue vs Federal expenditures.
Secondly, Congress determines money to be spent regardless of the funds being there. The appropriations ran out, hence the need for the CR that is being voted down in the Senate. Even if it gets approved today, we'll be at the same boat in 3 weeks as the CR was to Nov. 21st.

Non violent illegal immigrants would not likely be swept up if it were not for the fact that in Democrat held territory (cities and states). Politicians refuse to enforce ICE detainers on repeat violent offenders.
ICE could peacefully walk in and walk out of a lockup with the 12 time felon.
But since they have to hunt them down in sanctuary cities. The felons tend to hang in the same cultures. With people speaking the same language. So when they kick in the door, or pick one out of a crowd and get their man and they’re standing next to other non violent illegals, those people are being swept up
If Democrats really want to keep their Census head count in sanctuary cities. And limit non violent illegals being arrested. Then they could honor ICE detainers.
I am pretty sure anyone being run for a traffic stop or the like and discovered with rap sheet is leaving the country. A DUI also seems to be an automatic expulsion. Father of a couple of dreamers we know was pulled over DUI (his second) and was gone in short order. I should add he is a pretty sorry individual and no one is happier than his wife. What I have not seen anywhere around this part of Texas is any effort to simply round up illegals.
keep in mind, tom homan declared to any news outlet that would listen "we are after the worst of the worst, but, if sanctuary cities protect criminals, we will catch them and other illegals will be captured as collateral." (maybe not a perfect quote, but close)
so, FAFO. by the way, Merrick Garland should be tried for treason and executed because of all the american citizens that have been injured by his willful and unlawful actions.
