Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas says the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) is nearly broke and can’t make it through the rest of the year. Meanwhile, it has spend hundreds of millions on illegal immigrants during the Biden-Harris Administration.
Mayorkas, who faced impeachment earlier this year for his mismanagement of the southern border with Mexico, has been focused on settling illegal immigrants into states seen as key to the election of Democrats this year.
Rep. Mary Peltola of Alaska voted against Mayorkas’ impeachment, although it passed the House by one vote. It failed in the Democrat-controlled Senate.
The chickens are coming home to roost for Mayorkas, who said Wednesday, “We are meeting the immediate needs with the money that we have. We are expecting another hurricane hitting. FEMA does not have the funds to make it through the season.”
In other words, FEMA isn’t going to be able to help the millions who have suffered from Hurricane Helene.
Since Biden took office and appointed Mayorkas, more than 8.5 million illegal crossings have occurred at the southern border.
In April, FEMA announced $300 million in direct funding to help illegal immigrants settle in the U.S. and another $340 million went to cities via grants to be used to shelter illegal immigrants.
The federal government is now offering $750 to families who had their houses destroyed by Helene. FEMA plans to spend just $10 million to help these families, but Mayorkas said with more hurricanes on the way, he’s out of money to help.
“As Joe Biden’s enabler in Congress, Mary Peltola is choosing to let Biden’s Secretary of Open Borders off the hook for the disaster they have caused for every community. Peltola is not serious about securing our border,” said National Republican Congressional Committee Spokesperson Ben Petersen.
Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody pointed out that the total Biden has spend on illegal immigrants is over $1 billion.
“Everyone should be waking up this morning outraged by that comment. This is not something that has just happened recently,” she said. “And Florida’s been warning about this since this administration took over. Mayorkas has come in like a virus and infected what need[s] to be healthy, strong, fundamental programs to ensure the stability and safety of Americans in times of disaster.”
AMERICAN CITIZENS COME FIRST…..END OF STORY!
Say that in the UK (referencing British citizens obviously) and you will face jail time.
Coming soon to the USA if we get Harris in the White House, and Peltola in the House.
Yes and those who voted for this get what they wanted big out of control lying theiving politicians running this country into the ground.
Another Democrat anti-Ametican clusterph*ck.
You cannot depend on government. You might be able to depend on family and neighbors. Paul Harvey once said about how to support a healthy community: Take care of yourself and your family, patronize your local businesses, support your local church. People need to again strive for self-reliance, and then people, not government, must be prepared to step up to help others for the extraordinary. But of course, this administration threatens arrest of those trying as individuals to help (rescue helicopter).
See if Zelensky can loan you a few million.
Zelensky already kicked a few million back to “the Big Guy” Joe and the rest of his family syndicate. I hear Joe’s planning on buying his own ice cream company so that he never has to go without.
GOP led House controls FEMA spending & budgeting. So, ask the Republicans.
No, they do not.
Spending is controlled by the department or agency that receives the budget. Unless Congress specifically earmarks a budget line for a specific purpose, they have no control after the appropriation is passed.
.
If you are implying the GOP controlled House wrote the FEMA appropriation specifying the amount to be spend on illegal aliens, you are wrong.
That’s pretty shabby treatment of actual Americans tho.
Don’t just blame little Mary.
The Democrats were lockstep in refusing to discharge their constitutional obligations.
Elections have consequences. The US will be paying the price for electing Grandpa Bloodstains for at least a generation
Thanks to Rep. Mike Johnson for sending the house of representative on their October break before getting funding bills passed. The GOP strategy is to break government, and then complain it doesn’t work so they can privatize it.
There are three functions of government: To protect the common borders, to assure equal justice for all citizens, and to provide essential infrastructure WHICH CANNOT BE BETTER PROVIDED BY PRIVATE INDUSTRY. Period.
“….That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men…”. That is the purpose of government, from the historically unique American perspective. Our government now, as King George and all the others, is eating out our sustenance. They’re eating it and spewing it out on other nations, illegals, graft and corruption. It’s monstrous!
Head grifter Trump and his crime family should be held accountable, President Biden has not transferred FEMA Disaster Money out of the account to spend on immigrants, but former President Trump did transfer money out to build his wall. I thought he promised us that Mexico would pay for it? As helping other countries you might learn some history, had France not assisted the new nation in 1776 we might still be under the British Flag, or Russian Flag as Great Britain might have bought Alaska from Russia. Isolationist nations allow the brutal dictators to conquer land and claim it for themselves.
Alaskans for Freedom! demanding more government.
.
Yeah… cognitive dissonance on display for all to see.
Congress is the source of endorsing additional funds for FEMA. Congress is also the source of legislation for ensuring immigration issues are addressed, unlike the unilateral assertions of the previous administrator who was often quoted as stated that he, and he alone could fix any issue occurring in the USA, or in some cases in the governments around the world. At this time it is also worth pointing out that in matters related to immigration, it is well-known as well and well-documented with the illicit role of the previous administrator in the works of the current Congress, insofar as halting bipartisan progress on that front.
The “previous administrator” didn’t write a shoddy bill that doesn’t actually do anything to secure or close the border. The bill that actually secures and closes the border has been sitting on Schumer’s desk for a year now as he refuses to allow the Senate to vote on it. It’s already passed the House.
With such authoritarian pronouncement one would daresay you have actually read H.R. 2. Have you? What part of is fair and justifiable? It is the responsibility of the Senate to legislate on behalf of all Americans, not just the nazified.
What are blabbering about?? Nothing you said made any sense. US citizens are in need of help, these US citizens paid their taxes like good citizens. All for your beloved Joe and Kamala to squander 1 billion dollars on illegal aliens. But here you are blabbering on about nothing trying to justify your beloved Joe and Kamala.
The laws required to secure our borders have been in place for decades and decades, we simply need a president to fulfill his constitutional role, and uphold his pledge, to execute the laws of the land. It’s not as complicated as your electioneering fantasizes. Even your whipping post Trump figured it out.
“it is well-known as well and well-documented with the illicit role of the previous administrator in the works of the current Congress, insofar as halting bipartisan progress on that front.”
Got something solid on that?
.
Because, I do not see it. Unless you are talking about that stinking pile of horse dung that they claimed would secure the border. You know the one that allowed thousands of illegals to cross daily before enforcement started.
Not sure how opening the border is considered securing it, but if that works for you.
Nobody in their right mind should vote to replenish funds that were pissed away.
That is the same as feeding candy to a child that has rotten teeth Mrs N…..Hopefully you can grasp that comparison.
Mary Peltola should be ashamed of herself for aligning with Harris/Biden in supporting illegal aliens with US taxpayer money, but providing no support to US citizens who are going through living hell with the hurricane aftermath. Peltola is a clear traitor to our country and must be defeated in November.
Dan-G … I think she’s out of compliance and needs a “Wide Load” placard.
Dont forget the “Extremely Hazardous Material” placard!
Yet, we have plenty of money for Ukraine & Israel!
Misinformed voters bring horrific consequences. Biden and Kamala have had blood on their hands throughout their entire four years in office, and so does every person who supports their policies. I can’t understand how anyone who values peace and prosperity could vote for these leftists monsters. How many more wars? How many more humans need to be trafficked over the borders? How many more Americans need to suffer? How many? Shame on every blue voter. Shame on you all!
Spot on. Well said.
FEMA’s response following the 2018 quake was dismal. Imagine how bad their next response will be to the next Alaska natural disaster, thanks to Peltola’s feckless legislative record. I used to wonder when she would snap out of it and start making moves that would benefit Alaska. She did NOT make Willow happen, she slid in on those coat tails. Fish and abortion will only get her so far. Just like Lisa, she has to go. The sooner, the better.
Regardless of the tragic loss of life due to the storm the timing was impeccable for voters to witness the tragic results of the feckless leaders they installed in 2020.
That is only if they were smart enough to put 2 and 2 together.
How can Congress provide oversight without being provided with accurate information? I watched Mayorkas lying through his teeth about the border being secure. I imagine there are no other three people who have lied to Congress as much as this man. There is no way Congress was consulted about the housing payments or the undocumented people flown in on the taxpayers dime.
Hey “Alaskans for freedom” if the Dems would’ve gotten on board with protecting our border we wouldn’t be having this problem
