Former President Donald J. Trump posted several updates on August 4, 2025, via his Truth Social account and related news community feeds, highlighting recent developments regarding U.S. immigration enforcement and legislative actions.
In a post dated August 4, 2025 at 1:20 PM EST, Trump stated, “When the President signed his Big Beautiful Bill, suddenly ICE had $75B in new funding. Now, ICE is rapidly trying to hire 10,000 more agents." JOIN TODAY: https://t.co/67wDor3tZZ. https://t.co/sHdIVYqWJB.
Later that day at 18:33 UTC, another update was shared through the President Trump News Community account: "President Trump News Community - BREAKING https://t.co/7SayU6UC2t". A subsequent message at 20:44 UTC reiterated the breaking nature of these announcements with a similar statement: "President Trump News Community - BREAKING https://t.co/Sjmrse53Fg".
The posts reference significant changes to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) operations following the passage of what Trump refers to as the "Big Beautiful Bill," which reportedly allocated $75 billion in additional funding for ICE and initiated efforts to recruit thousands of new agents. This move comes amid ongoing debates over U.S. border security and immigration policy.
Historically, major increases in ICE funding have been associated with shifts in federal priorities regarding border enforcement and interior immigration operations. Legislative actions impacting ICE often reflect broader national discussions about immigration reform and public safety measures.
