The FEMA money which should have been used for the hurricane/storm victims was diverted to illegal aliens.

!!! FALSE !!!

But you're working really hard to keep spreading that LIE, aren't you??

The President can only spend money the way Congress allocates it. All the money to Ukraine? Passed both houses of Congress. Israel & Taiwan? Likewise. Remember when Trump had to take money from military bases to build his defective "wall"? That's because Congress wouldn't allocate wall money, and the President has very very little discretionary money.


Congress allocates a large pool of emergency response money, $20 billion per year and more for FEMA to administer.

FEMA also has some other smaller pools of money it administers, including Shelter and Services Program AKA SSP. According to the spending laws passed by Congreess, this money can be given to local governments for humanitarian services to legal migrants such as asylum seekers.

Here's how people are being misled. They are being told that the FEMA disaster relief fund was depleted by some SSP spending. That's a flat out lie.

BTW, here is where our emergency response money gets spent:







Here is US law on asylum:
https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/8/1158

IT creates a giant loophole for asylum seekers. It's a holdover from the '60s & '70s US immigration law and policy was designed to spit in the eye of Fidel Castro by treating everyone who set foot on Florida as an asylum seeker. This helped earn votes from a swing demographic in a swing state. I agree, we need immigration reform.

And the Senate Bipartisan border bill would have closed that loophole and others. It was the first immigration overhaul since Reagan gave amnesty in 1986.

And of course you know what happened to he Senate Bipartisan border bill. Trump leaned on his flunkies to kill it. Trump wanted a mess on the border to run against. Trump DAMAGED America for campaign purposes. SICK!!

@MarthannBann888 If so, they could have highlighted that during debate. But they didn't want debate.

You suggest I am wrong to blame tRump. Yet tRump ASKED FOR the blame!!

“I’ll fight it all the way. A lot of the senators are trying to say, respectfully, they’re blaming it on me. I say, that’s okay. Please blame it on me. Please.”
