Reminder: As assassins attempt to murder the President and Cabinet members, and Americans face a heightened threat from Iranian sleeper cells, the Democratic Party is still blocking full funding for the Department of Homeland Security. This is an absolute disgrace.

Analysis Summary
Pompeo blames Democrats for blocking DHS funding, but the actual story is more complicated. The House voted Thursday to reopen most of DHS on the 76th day of the longest agency shutdown in US history, with Democrats refusing to fund ICE and Border Patrol after federal agents killed two American citizens in Minnesota and were demanding reforms like body-worn cameras. The Senate twice unanimously passed a bill funding all of DHS except ICE and Border Patrol, but Speaker Johnson refused to allow a House vote on it. The recent assassination attempt at the Correspondents' Dinner is real, but tying it to Democrats' position on ICE funding conflates separate issues — Democrats have offered to fully fund TSA, Coast Guard, FEMA, and CISA all along.
Claims Analysis (3)
“Assassins are attempting to murder the President and Cabinet members”
A suspect was charged in an attempted assassination of Trump at the White House Correspondents' Dinner; framing as plural 'assassins' overstates.
“Americans face a heightened threat from Iranian sleeper cells”
Plausible amid US-Iran war but no specific public intelligence confirming active sleeper-cell threat.
“The Democratic Party is blocking full funding for the Department of Homeland Security”
Democrats blocked funding only for ICE/Border Patrol pending reforms; they passed bills funding the rest of DHS — House GOP refused to vote on it.
