Senate GOP Advances ICE Funding Package After Forcing Trump's Anti-Weaponization Fund Into Retreat

Senate Republicans successfully launched a $70 billion immigration enforcement package after delaying consideration due to the Trump administration's controversial $2 billion anti-weaponization fund. This legislative victory marks a significant shift in federal priorities, effectively killing the White House's initiative to fund defense against potential Iranian nuclear threats. The move underscores the ongoing friction between the executive branch and the legislative majority regarding national security spending and immigration policy.
