I flagged this because the report [1] directly contradicts the headline.

Heck, the article itself contradicts the headline.

The vast majority of the 1.5B is going to the DOD, not ICE.

According to the report, ICE is getting just 44m of that 1.5b. For comparison, the IRS gets 31m and the SEC gets 56m.

It really looks like the article was willfully misrepresenting the numbers in order to get a hot-button social issue into the headline.

It surprises the dickens out of me that the editor would allow such an obviously mis-understandable title

That's because the headline (on thenextweb) is aggressively, intentionally politicized. It's partisan clickbait.
