Of course, important shit like border security, assistance for the NC hurricane victims, and homeless veterans got squat.
The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) ramped up grants for migrants from 2020 to 2024 — which included cash assistance to buy cars, homes and even build credit for startup businesses, according to a shocking watchdog report that found taxpayers were left on the hook for $22.6 billion.
HHS’ Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) — which came under fire last year for having lost track of 32,000 migrant kids in the US — handed out the high sum to a host of nonprofits, effectively acting as a “giant magnet” for those crossing the US border and claiming asylum, auditors from the money monitor OpenTheBooks revealed exclusively to The Post.
Tasked with settling migrants, asylum seekers and other refugees in America, ORR drastically increased the number of noncitizens eligible to receive funding over the bulk of President Joe Biden’s term, with more than $10 billion shelled out to grant-receiving organizations just in fiscal year 2023.
That coincided with all-time records being set for southern border crossings into the US, with 2.4 million apprehensions by Customs and Border Protection over the same period.
Non-governmental groups bilked taxpayers for up to $1.7 billion in services including dollar-for-dollar matching savings plans for cars, homes, college educations or startups; small-business loans of up to $15,000; loans to repair credit history of up to $1,500; “cultural orientation,” “emergency housing support,” legal assistance and Medicaid care.
Robin Dunn Marcos, the senior HHS official who oversaw the ORR program for solo child migrants during some of that period, had previously worked for more than 30 years combined at both nonprofits.
Put her ass in prison for misappropriation of funds.
Dems were all for enforcing the immigration laws until illegals became their political tools. They ignore the laws and simply tell foreign nationals to come right in as if that justifies the crime.
The U.S. has the right to control who enters the country. There is no Constitutional or legal right for a foreigner to enter the U.S. It’s a privilege.
The Dems’ sole purpose of this sanctioned invasion is to change the fabric of the country in a very insidious way. Biden’s goal is to pollute America with a new population of pliable serfs and dilute the influence of American citizens.
They’re illegals, regardless of what politically inspired label they assign. They pour in and commit more crimes after they get here. They shouldn’t be here in the first place. We have laws, but the DemProg-created “sanctuary cities” keep breaking them.
Illegals have been receiving benefits like food stamps, welfare, free education, tax credits, medical care, and housing for years. Enough.
Time to ship them home.
