Funding for illegal aliens could have assisted with hurricane relief

| October 4, 2024

Hurricane Helene caused loss of life, and even the loss of settlements, while leaving American citizens homeless, hungry, without electricity, etc. Considering that we are still in hurricane season, there is the possibility that another hurricane could hit this or another area. FEMA is still in need of funding, which opened them to criticism.

From Blaze Media:

The total funding made available for this program in fiscal year 2024 was $650 million. The funding total in fiscal year 2023 was $363.8 million. Hundreds of millions were previously awarded by FEMA for migrants through the emergency food and shelter program.

Earlier this year, nearly $19.6 million in FEMA funds was used to pay for an illegal alien welcome center in San Diego County.

In response to Mayorkas turning out empty pockets, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) wrote, “This is easy. Mayorkas and FEMA — immediately stop spending money on illegal immigration resettlement and redirect those funds to areas hit by the hurricane. Put Americans first.”

Rep. Tim Burchett (R-Tenn.) tweeted, “FEMA spending over a billion dollars on illegals while they leave Americans stranded and without help is treasonous. U.S. citizens are dying. Pray for our country folks.”

“‘The Biden-Harris FEMA spent over $1 BILLION on funding illegal aliens.’ America LAST,” wrote Rep. Eli Crane (R-Ariz.).

“Let me translate: ‘We are racking up trillions in debt with all the money that our money printer prints that we then take back from law-abiding American citizens like you but we exist to spend it on anything other than helping you,'” wrote Blaze News editor in chief Matthew Peterson.

It’s a lot more than they are saying.

Indeed it is a lot more than they’re saying, Good Sir. The blog spheres are blowing up with various articles on this subject and other failures of the grubermint to assist the areas hard hit by Helene.

TL Davis does his usual fine job of breaking it down in this article. RTWT, ’bout a 2 minute read. Full disclosure…take your BP Meds first…

And Frau harris tells a person that lost their home that they would get $ 750.00 from fema. peeps crossing the border get around five thousand dollars and a cell phone. Someone let me know if I got my comment right.

Depends upon their country of origin. For example Right now all Haitians and Ukes are considered political refugees due to the elimination of ROL there or war. They get rent for six months, job placement, Medicare for kids till 18, stipend and a few other benies.

Yes, equity– Americans “have too much” should feel lucky they get $750, we must share their selfish racist wealth with rest of the world! (Democrats actually think that– never mind all the rape, robbery, pet-eating, drunk-driving, etc.; it’s all for a theoretical greater good.)

P.S. Today, we find you have to be uninsured and poor to even get it.

Thanks 5JC for your info on the border crossers I mentioned earlier. Thanks again

Future welfare leaches.

Jimbojszz

Not just future leaches. They’re already sucking the system being here now. Having to pay for daycare and schooling, college loan forgiveness. The leaching never stops. We need to change the 14th amendment. Every turd in the world will keep coming till we close down that citizenship route.

Not to mention health care that we all are paying for out of our premiums.

And, surprise, that $750 is only for those who “qualify” by being uninsured and low income! If you have insurance and make “too much” then suck it– because Equity!

For decades, Hospitals neat the US-Mexican border have been going bankrupt due to the abuse that ILLEGAL ALIENS put on the system. “Do-gooders” quickly inform them that it’s a violation of U.S. Federal Law for an Emergency Room to turn them away for any reason at all, so they’ll go there for free stuff just over a case of the sniffles and of course they’ll take off without paying even a penny of the bill, leaving everyone else to take up the slack, and OH, even the slightest hint of a mistake on the part of the provider, they’ll have some sniveling slip-and-fall Lawer educated and liberally indoctrinated ready to file a malpractice case against them. I say DUCK all Illegal Aliens, the only thing we owe them is deportation.

Some articles from people apparently familiar with the situation in western NC.

What a wonderful time to be an American citizen. Third in line after Ukraine and illegal aliens. Fuck Joe Biden and his entire administration. Toss in his corrupt family as well.

Forest Bondurant

Isn’t it interesting how the lack of response and offer to pay only $750.00 is directed to people who live in the part of the country that is predominantly Red?

(Also heard on the radio there is no plan for how to facilitate voting for those areas – no power, fuel running low, and no mail delivery or pickup.)

FEMA’s response:
“This is false. No money is being diverted from disaster response needs. FEMA’s disaster response efforts and individual assistance is funded through the Disaster Relief Fund, which is a dedicated fund for disaster efforts. Disaster Relief Fund money has not been diverted to other, non-disaster related efforts.”

Hack Stone

51 Intelligence officials signed a letter stating that no FEMA funds were diverted to supporting “newcomers”.

Odie

Then why is it broke? Didn’t Mayorkas (?) just admit to that?

Hack Stone

3 days deep into the new Fiscal Year, and there are already broke. Sounds like someone needs to enroll in the Personal Finance MCI. Are there Payday Loan Shops in the neighborhood of these federal agencies?

QMC

Cool. Let’s do a shift on funding of programs within the Agency. Immediately redirect all SSP funds that the illegal aliens are using for about $2-4k a person a month, to DRF for American citizens in Western North Carolina.

AW1 Rod

Hey, now! This is ALL just “misinformation” and “disinformation”!

FEMA on X: “There has been a lot of rumors spreading about the #Helene response. Rumors can create confusion & prevent people from getting assistance they need. Help us share accurate information: https://t.co/Z5vxuBTths https://t.co/U3DCtmC1LN” / X

So, everything we’ve been hearing from people on the ground in these locations is bullshit? Fuck off, FEMA!

FEMA would do well to BTFO at that point; those Carolina hillbillies do not play games. I have family from that area; I know what they are capable of if provoked.

I know some people from around there, they’re Folks that you DO NOT want to mess with.
