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!
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.
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
