House Democrats are moving full-speed ahead on President Joe Biden’s spending agenda. Votes are expected on his social spending plan and infrastructure bill. Reports say the Justice Department is considering settling lawsuits with illegal immigrants, by giving them $450,000. Both Biden and the White House are responding to the claims, but they are giving mixed messages. Biden says vaccine mandates will end the pandemic sooner; but what are they doing to law enforcement? Now billboards are popping up to recruit officers. Who are they targeting?
President Biden weighing on whether he thinks China will try to work out an arrangement with the Taliban. And a lawmaker defies the administration’s account of evacuation efforts. What is the biggest homeland security threat to America? The Biden administration says it is domestic terrorism. But two former top officials in law enforcement disagree. They say international threats such as China should be the focus. The House is set to debate on the Democrats’ $3.5 trillion spending plan. The initiative includes spending on social programs, but Republicans say it will raise taxes and fuel inflation.
Senate Democrats look forward after celebrating their latest victory: the advancement of the $3.5 trillion spending plan. NTD explains what’s in the plan, and some of the challenges ahead. The Biden Administration released a new directive to Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents, ordering them not to arrest or deport illegal immigrants who are victims of crimes. The administration called the policy a victim-centered approach. The Taliban says they won’t have peace talks until Afghanistan’s president steps down. This, while a top Afghan minister resigns and the militants continue making advances.
