$72 billion in funding for ICE and Border Patrol is now in limbo after GOP senators revolted against President Trump's $1.776B "anti-weaponization fund" on Thursday. Why it matters: The fund was dropped like "a bomb in the middle of a pretty well planned out reconciliation bill," Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) told reporters. Zoom in: The package for ICE and Border Patrol funding was on track to pass by the weekend. But senators left town without voting on Thursday after a heated two-hour meeting with acting Attorney General Todd Blanche."[T]hey need to help with this issue, because we have a lot of members who are concerned," Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-S.D.) told Punchbowl News about the White House and the fund. "Somebody described it as a galactic blunder, and I think that's probably true," Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wisc.) told CNN. Between the lines: The Senate spent the first few days of the week trying to decide what to do about the $1 billion for security upgrades related to the White House ballroom. As of Wednesday that funding had been stripped, Axios reported. But the Senate has yet to release text of the budget bill ahead of a vote-a-rama. The bottom line: I'm not sure the fund should exist," said Sen. Bill Cassidy, who lost his Louisiana GOP primary on Saturday as part of Trump's revenge tour
How government should respond to the killing of Henry Nowak sam.macrory Fri, 05/06/2026 - 12:14 Henry Nowak's murder must lead to considered and targeted government action. 5 Comment Institute for Government Yes Police form a cordon outside Southampton Central Police Station as locals gather during a flash protest following the release of body-cam footage of the arrest and subsequent death of Henry Nowak. Policy making Public services Criminal justice Police Law Labour Reform UK Conservative Prime minister Home secretary Starmer government Home Office No The police bodycam footage of Henry Nowak is harrowing and deeply disturbing. Henry, an 18-year-old white student, lies on the ground mortally wounded while an officer casually dismisses his cries for help and arrests him for a racially aggravated assault that his Sikh killer, Vickram Digwa, had fabricated. The case has undermined trust in the police service, sparked a bitter debate about so-called ‘two-tier policing’ – and led to scenes of appalling violence in Southampton, where the murder took place last December. When such dreadful events happen there is a temptation to seek immediate answers and reach for quick policy solutions. In the face of an outpouring of grief and anger, the government comes under intense pressure to “act” – particularly from its political opponents. The Conservative leader, Kemi Badenoch, said it must be a “seminal moment for Britain on a par with the murder of Stephen Lawrence”, the black teenager fatally stabbed in a racist attack in 1993. For Reform UK, Nigel Farage called for people to respond with “pure, cold rage” and end a “culture of fear that puts minority lives on top and white ones at the bottom”. What ministers really need, however, is space and time to make the right decisions. The impact of all police anti-racism advice, policies and training should be reviewed Some of those decisions will hinge on the outcome of the investigation into the police’s handling of the incident.
