Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) is attempting
to inflame Democratic voters with President Donald Trump's Big Beautiful Bill,
telling her supporters that the legislation is as hardline on immigration as
Trump and his allies have claimed.
The bill allocates $170 billion for immigration enforcement,
including $45 billion for detention centers, $30 billion for Immigration and
Customs Enforcement (ICE), and nearly $50 billion to fund the construction of
Trump's promised border wall.
Following the bill's final passage in the House of
Representatives on Thursday, Ocasio-Cortez took to the left-wing social media
platform Bluesky to issue a stark warning about its implications.
