Trump’s “One, Big, Beautiful Bill” Greatly Expands Biometric Surveillance, Funds DHS’ ‘End-To-End Biometric Travel’ And Autonomous Surveillance Towers

Of the many things contained in President Donald Trump’s highly touted spending package, the “One, Big, Beautiful Bill” (BBB) which he signed earlier this month, the bill allocates hefty spending to drastically expand nationwide biometric surveillance in the United States, drastically bolstering the Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) and Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s (ICE) tracking capabilities.

Though not revealed by mainstream or alternative media, Biometric Update highlights how the 940-page BBB allocates hundreds of billions of dollars “in immigration-related funding for fiscal year 2025 alone, which is by far the largest such allocation in U.S. history and represents a dramatic technology buildout.”

“Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) would receive nearly $30 billion in funding through 2029, earmarked not only for personnel and deportation operations, but also for digital modernization efforts that lean heavily on AI and biometric surveillance,” the outlet added. “More than $5.2 billion within ICE’s share is dedicated to infrastructure modernization, including $2.5 billion specifically for artificial intelligence systems, biometric data collection platforms, and digital case tracking.”

HORRIFYING: DHS Confirms Arrest of Mexican Illegal Alien Previously Charged with Concealing Missing Illinois Woman in Storage Container for TWO MONTHS, Decapitating and Bleaching Corpse – Man Released in April Without Bail

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) on Saturday confirmed that an illegal alien, who was charged with hiding the body of a missing woman for nearly two months, was arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in the Democratic Sanctuary City of Chicago, Illinois.

Megan Bos (37) was discovered dead in April after disappearing in February, according to Fox 32 Chicago.

Jose Luis Mendoza-Gonzalez (52) reportedly told police she had overdosed at his home, but he “broke her phone, kept her body in the basement for two days, then moved it outside,” Fox reports.

Bos’s body was found wrapped in a blue tarp inside of a storage container in the man’s yard.

According to Fox’s Bill Melugin, “DHS says Bos’ corpse had been decapitated and she was found in bleach in the storage container.”

Still, Mendoza-Gonzalez was released from prison under Illinois’s SAFE-T Act, which was signed into law by Democratic Governor JB Pritzker days after Joe Biden was inaugurated as President in January 2021. The law eliminated cash bail in all criminal cases, prohibited pretrial detention in most cases, and hindered police from doing their jobs to protect public safety.

DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said, “It is absolutely repulsive this monster walked free on Illinois’s streets after allegedly committing such a heinous crime. Megan Bos and her family will have justice.”

Per Fox News’ Bill Melugin on X:

DHS confirms to @FoxNews that ICE just arrested a Mexican illegal alien in the sanctuary city of Chicago who was charged in April w/ concealing the body of a missing Illinois woman in a storage container on his yard for almost 2 months & abusing her corpse. Despite the severity of the charges, Lake County Judge Randie Bruno released him from custody immediately after his first court appearance in April.

I’m told 52-year-old Jose Luis Mendoza-Gonzalez was just found & arrested by ICE at a market in Chicago this afternoon, and he is currently in ICE custody.

Police in Waukegan, IL say they found the body of 37-year-old Megan Bos, who had been reported missing on March 9th, in a container in Mendoza-Gonzalez’s yard in Waukegan in April. Mendoza-Gonzalez was charged with concealing her corpse, abusing it, and obstruction of justice.

DHS says Bos’ corpse had been decapitated and she was found in bleach in the storage container.

DHS Slams Judge For Ordering Release of Transgender Inmate from Men’s ICE Detention Center

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) condemned a Biden-appointed U.S district judge this week for ordering the release of a transgender Mexican illegal alien — a man who identifies as a woman — from a male-only detention facility.

The illegal alien, Odalis Jhonatan Martinez-Velasquez, had been placed into Immigration and Custom Enforcement’s (ICE) men’s detention center in accordance with President Donald Trump’s standing executive order and for the safety of women in ICE custody, DHS stated on X.

In making her ruling, Oregon District Judge Baggio joins what has become a judicial conga line of Democrat-appointed federal judges blocking Trump administration policies, as Breitbart News has reported.

In this most recent case, the judge appears to have served two left-wing causes in one order — transgenderism and open borders — as DHS accused the Court of “caving to pressure from immigration and transgender activists” and “ignoring the rule of law.”

According to a separate DHS statement, Velasquez illegally entered the country in 2023 and was released under the Biden administration. He was then lawfully detained on June 2, 2025 and processed for expedited removal.

DHS Secretary Suggests Liquid Carry-On Limits On Flights Might Be Eased

More changes could be coming to the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), including on whether more liquids can be taken through airport security, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem suggested on July 16.

“But I will tell you—I mean the liquids—I’m questioning. So that may be the next big announcement is what size your liquids need to be,” Noem told NewsNation in a live interview with The Hill published on July 16, referring to the amount of liquids people can transport through security in their carry-on bags. “We’re looking at our scanners.”

The TSA website says that you “are allowed to bring a quart-sized bag of liquids, aerosols, gels, creams and pastes in your carry-on bag and through the checkpoint,” but are “limited to travel-sized containers that are 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) or less per item.”

Noem’s comment comes just days after she announced that the TSA has lifted its mandate for travelers to take off their shoes at security checkpoints.

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) secretary said that her office is “working with several different companies with technologies to give us competitive bids on what they actually do.”

She added that DHS is “working to see what we can do to make the traveling experience much better and more hospitable for individuals, but also still keep safety standards.”

The FBI Weren’t the Only Feds Embedded in the Crowd on Jan 6 and at Butler

There were more than FBI insurgents embedded in Jan 6 crowd.  Homeland Security’s federal employees were all over the place there and at Butler as well. 

Mike Benz outlined the feds involved in Jan 6 and Butler.  This evidence helps Americans see how much the government is working against good Americans.

Late last year Kash Patel shared evidence that the Feds were involved in Jan 6.

The following was reported in the book – The Steal – Volume III: The Cover-Up.  Jeffrey McKellop was at Jan 6 and was punished for saving a woman’s life.  He later uncovered the special ops used against Americans on that day and was punished for doing so.

Here is what he shared that was reported in The Steal – Volume III: The Cover-Up:

Two years after his imprisonment, word came out about a Jan 6 hostage by the name of Jeffrey McKellop, a decorated former 3rd Special Forces Group soldier and US government contractor. Jeffrey was being held in the DC Gulag in Washington DC as a political prisoner after he served his country for 22 years of military service (the DC Gulag was the name given to the Washington DC jail where the Jan 6 hostages were being held).

Jeffrey has been silenced by his government. After his arrest in March 2021, Jeffrey delved into video footage and documented evidence from January 6. Jeffrey was able to identify numerous government informants and agitators in the massive Trump crowd that day. After he put together his evidence, he sent it out to numerous contacts. That was when the FBI came into his prison cell and took his research. They then attempted to silence him and banned him from phone and mail privileges . . .

. . . [McKellop says] I know for a fact that there were undercover agents, man. I saw them. I spotted it. And when you find one, then you know what to look for, and then you find them. All undercover agents, they all wear the same thing. They all move the same way. They all get together the same way. Why do I know these? Because I used to do the same thing . . .

I’ve been saying this for a year and a half now, that Antifa were there, Antifa and BLM were there, but they changed their chameleons, man. They look like us, they dress like us, they act like us, and then they committed violence in our name. That is guerrilla warfare.

McKellop identified individuals in the videos he saw, and he is convinced these people were working for the government. He’s been in jail for more than two years without a trial for the crime of knowing too much.

McKellop shared his thoughts on Jan 6 and more in an interview out yesterday.  This is raw and real.

Kristi Noem claims 1 in 6 survivors of Lahaina wildfires were forced to trade sexual favors for supplies

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem has claimed one in six survivors of the Lahaina wildfires in Hawaii had to trade sexual and other favors to get basic supplies.

The comments were seemingly in reference to a report on female Filipino survivors, which one of the authors called a “gross manipulation” of the report, according to Politico.

At a review meeting for the Federal Emergency Management Agency on Wednesday, Noem said, ​​“After the wildfires in Maui, residents voiced concerns that every FEMA employee that they spoke with had different answers.”

“None of them had conversations that resulted in getting assistance that was helpful or any clarity in their situations,” she added. “The situation in Lahaina was so bad that one in six survivors were forced to trade sexual favors, other favors for just basic supplies.”

The study on Filipino female survivors was conducted by Tagnawa, which states that it is a “Filipino feminist disaster response organization” in Hawaii. The review included responses from 70 female Filipino fire survivors and found that 16 percent had engaged in “survival sex in exchange for basic necessities post-disaster,” with “a landlord, an employer, family members, friends and acquaintances.”

Biden Judge to Block Trump DHS From Carrying Out Raids at Home Depots, Car Washes – Prevent Agents From Relying on Race, Type of Work When Making Arrests

A federal judge has written a tentative decision that sides with the anti-American ACLU’s plaintiffs and will block Trump’s Department of Homeland Security agents from raiding Home Depots, car washes and other places in the Los Angeles area (7 counties in the Central District of California) unless they have reasonable suspicion that there is a violation of immigration laws.

According to Fox News, US District Judge Maame Ewusi-Mensah Frimpong, a Biden appointee, has written a tentative decision and it is still subject to change.

The judge wrote her tentative ruling as leftists attack ICE agents during an immigration raid at a cannabis farm in Camarillo, California.

Judge Frimpong will issue her ruling tomorrow.

Per Fox News reporter Bill Melugin:

Sources who have reviewed Judge Frimpong’s tentative decision tell us her order will block ICE and Border Patrol from relying on race, Spanish speaking, location, and type of work when making immigration arrests.

Additionally, DHS will be blocked from conducting stops of suspected illegal immigrants unless the agent has a reasonable suspicion that there is a violation of immigration law.

The ACLU and a handful of plaintiffs sued the Trump administration, alleging they were doing “deportation dragnets” in LA by making mass arrests that were based only on skin color and race.

The Trump administration DOJ denies this, saying all arrests are in accordance with the law and are based on the totality of the circumstances, including surveillance, intelligence, and locations where illegal immigrants are known to work or be hired.

A San Antonio City Council candidate called for the killing of ICE agents on Monday evening and the DHS is already tracking him down.

Federal agents descended on MacArthur Park in the sanctuary city of Los Angeles on Monday to conduct an immigration raid.

Karen Bass bullied her way in and demanded the raid stop.

Mayor Bass demanded to speak to the person in charge, however, the border patrol chief hit back hard and told Bass to pound sand.

“I don’t work for Karen Bass. Better get used to us now, cause this is going to be normal very soon. We will go anywhere, anytime we want in Los Angeles,” Border Patrol Chief Gregory Bovino told Fox News reporter Bill Melugin.

Later Monday, an X account allegedly belonging to San Antonio City Council candidate and UTSA student Matthew Gauna, called for ICE agents to be killed in response to Bill Melugin’s tweet.

“And they will get shot by the Los Angeles public. I wanna see a few dead ICE agents Los Angeles! Don’t let me down,” the Matthew Gauna X account said.

DHS Has Another Interesting Observation on Those Violent Mexico City Protests About ‘Gringos’

People got a big reminder over the weekend that leftist violent protests aren’t just something that happens in this country when things got out of hand in Mexico City on Friday. 

As we reported, there was a protest where hundreds came out against “gentrification” in the tourist areas, upset that foreigners, including many Americans, have moved into the area. Some of the signs were ironically fascinating. 

Masked protesters smashed through the windows and looted high-end businesses in the touristic areas of Condesa and Roma, and screamed at tourists in the area. Graffiti on glass shattered glass being smashed through with rocks read: “get out of Mexico.” Protesters held signs reading “gringos, stop stealing our home” and demanding local legislation to better regulate tourism levels and stricter housing laws.

Matt Vespa at our sister site, Townhall, picked up The NY Times description.

“Your new home is an invasion,” “We shouldn’t feel like foreigners in our own land,” and “Expat = gentrifier,” photos and videos of the protests showed.

There were also signs “Mexico for Mexicans” and “gringo go home.”

In this video, you can see protesters harassing tourists, smashing windows, with even one person spray painting, “Kill a gringo” on a building.
