Charity is a “major cause” of Immigration Crisis, According to House Judiciary Chair
The Italian right wing government continues to blame migrant deaths in the Mediterranean Sea on charities trying to rescue drowning migrants. And stateside, Representative Jim Jordan, Chairperson of the House judiciary Committee blames charities along the southern border for the immigration crisis. No kidding, because everybody knows that migrants would not risk death on the open seas — even at the hands of government officials, sometimes — if it weren’t for the less than 1% chance of being rescued by a charity boat. And migrants wouldn’t make a 1,799 mile journey from Guatemala by foot and sometimes on the top of the “train of death” were it not for less than 1% chance they will survive murder, robbery, disease and starvation, to get a dry baloney sandwich and a bottle of water, maybe some baby formula, from a resource starved charity just north of the border.
I swear I try to be unbiased on this blog but when I can’t the next best thing is just to admit my bias. So let’s just say that if Jim Jordan and I were bank robbers together, I would not trust that guy with the loot while I visited the men’s room, I’ll tell you that much. Here’s what he said in a letter to Homeland Security requesting information on behalf of the Committee:
A major cause of this crisis is the incentive created by non-governmental organizations (NGOs) using DHS grant funding through the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). While Americans suffer the consequences of chaos at the southwest border caused by the Biden Administration, NGOs receive hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars through federal grants to provide free food, lodging, and transportation for illegal aliens to be released anywhere they want in the United States. NGOs simply tell DHS how many illegal aliens they encounter, and funding can be awarded without any documentation or receipts. Federal funding for migration-related NGOs at the border has increased dramatically at a time when federal resources for border security and immigration enforcement and local resources for emergency response and medical care have been strained to the breaking point. Amid this crisis, there is also an increased risk of fraud, misuse, and abuse of funds because, due to current policies, FEMA is unable to ensure that humanitarian relief funds are not being wasted.
Who knew? If we just got rid of the stupid charities we could solve all our problems. I always learn something by listening to a well reasoning conservative, especially one with the ability to expose my ignorance. Hey, it happens every now and again. But these Maggotts make me spit.
