This is a true story.
You and I were looking into what the alerts were, what the bulletins were, if the threat level had been raised, all of that after we saw this incident in Austin and the fact that authorities are potentially tying it to terrorism and Iran.
I pull up the Department of Homeland Security website and you get an alert at the top in red.
that says, due to a lapse in federal funding, this website will not be actively managed.
Are you kidding me?
It was basically saying, hey, folks, I know you came here for information because, you know, we're the Department of Homeland Security and all, but we haven't updated this page, so maybe go somewhere else for information.
Yeah, because now we're at war with Iran.
We have...
Security threats.
And in addition to that, that line, the website goes on to say this.
This website was last updated on February 17th, 2026, and will not be updated until after funding is enacted.
I genuinely went onto that website to get information about the state of our security and any notices, any bulletins, any information that we as American citizens might need.
And it has not been updated for two weeks because our lawmakers cannot sit at a table and negotiate with one another.
Things have changed.
That's going to be tough.
And didn't you mention that ICE was funded?
Through next year, yes.
So ironically, ICE is funded.
So this isn't even defunding ICE.
We need them on overtime.
