The Bulwark Podcast
Bill Kristol: MAGA's Grievance Culture

Now, someone will say back to me correctly, well, there's already all this funding in the stupid reconciliation bill from last year, so all you're doing is kind of reducing the rate of growth of ICE and the Border Patrol.

The Bulwark Podcast
Bill Kristol: MAGA's Grievance Culture

But that's important, actually.

And there are other people who will say, well, but this money's for slightly different things than the money in the reconciliation bill.

The Bulwark Podcast
Bill Kristol: MAGA's Grievance Culture

The less funding for ICE and Border Patrol, the better.

The Bulwark Podcast
Bill Kristol: MAGA's Grievance Culture

That's my simple-minded view.

The Bulwark Podcast
Bill Kristol: MAGA's Grievance Culture

They're doing bad things to...

The Bulwark Podcast

Immigrants, obviously, they're doing bad things to Americans.

The Bulwark Podcast
Bill Kristol: MAGA's Grievance Culture

They're intimidating citizens.

The Bulwark Podcast
Bill Kristol: MAGA's Grievance Culture

They're part of the election, 2026 and 2028 election interference plan.

The Bulwark Podcast
Bill Kristol: MAGA's Grievance Culture

And so the less funding, the better.

The Bulwark Podcast
Bill Kristol: MAGA's Grievance Culture

So I think they should just focus a little more on the funding.

The Bulwark Podcast
Bill Kristol: MAGA's Grievance Culture

I think that's really where the power is.

Bill Kristol: MAGA's Grievance Culture

Stephen Miller was not stupid when he put all that money into the reconciliation bill for ICE and Border Patrol.

The Bulwark Podcast
Bill Kristol: MAGA's Grievance Culture

So I'm a little more focused on the funding.

The Bulwark Podcast
Bill Kristol: MAGA's Grievance Culture

I'm fine with the restrictions, but the restrictions are really less important than the funding, I think.

The Bulwark Podcast
Bill Kristol: MAGA's Grievance Culture

So that's my only advice to the Democrats.

The Bulwark Podcast
Bill Kristol: MAGA's Grievance Culture

Fight the funding.

The Bulwark Podcast
Bill Kristol: MAGA's Grievance Culture

Yeah.

The Bulwark Podcast
Bill Kristol: MAGA's Grievance Culture

So maybe let the others pass it then.

But you know what?
