$38.3 BILLION.

Not for schools.

Not for healthcare.

Not for housing.

For detention warehouses.

Let that settle.

• There’s “no money” for working families.

• No money for rent relief.

• No money for medical debt.

• But billions for cages.

This isn’t border management.

It’s infrastructure.

When a government invests at this scale in confinement capacity, it isn’t planning for peace.

It’s planning for volume.

• Warehouses.

• Conversion contracts.

• Long-term detention buildout.

• Expansion budgets locked in.

That’s not temporary policy.

That’s structural intent.

If human beings become line items,

the republic becomes inventory management.

And the same politicians who preach “small government” are building the largest detention apparatus in modern history.

Standards either apply — or they don’t.

$38.3 billion isn’t enforcement.

It’s an expansion to kidnap more humans for profit.

In 2025, GEO Group reported about $2.6 billion in revenue.

CoreCivic reported roughly $2.2 billion.

ICE-related contracts have sharply increased their earnings.

And expansion tells you exactly what future they’re budgeting for.
