Default The 'FEMA Scandal' Redux

There once was a thread claiming FEMA was low on funds for hurricane victims because it was spent on illegal migrants (but it died). In related news, DHS claims to not know how many illegals they foisted upon the tax roles of others. You may even recall quotes from the thread:
Quote:
...No, FEMA funds did not go to paying for the re-settlement of illegals here in America. A ridiculous lie.

Second, yes, funding for FEMA was running out due to several disasters that depleted FEMA's budgeted money. Both DHS and Biden have requested supplemental funding...
Which even included the pole dancer at Snopes-tropes':
Quote:
FEMA Isn't Running Out of Hurricane Relief Money Due to Migrant Aid -- "FEMA spent over $1 BILLION in taxpayer dollars on providing housing and services to illegal aliens," an X user claimed", as being false...
And now, there is This about That. They call it sunlight, because Democracy Dies in Darkness - don't-cha-know?

FOIA Finds FEMA Funding Millions to Illinois at the Request of House Democrats
Oct. 30, 2024 12:15 pm

It’s no surprise that the Department of Homeland Security and FEMA has been funding the immigration crisis in the United States. A recent FOIA response from the City of Chicago obtained by Terry Newsome of Behind Enemy Lines podcast confirms widespread reporting that FEMA has been doing just that for sanctuary states and cities across the country.

In the 70 pages of emails, FEMA’s “Office of Partnership and Engagement” corresponds with City of Chicago officials to alert them of the numbers of asylum seekers being sent to the city of Chicago and suburbs such as Naperville and Elgin. Over 5,000 asylum seekers were placed between February and April 2023. While the media and government attempted to gaslight the public by suggesting that the government was not funding the migrant invasion linked FOIA documents confirm, from government email addresses, that over $300 million went to communities receiving migrants.



An email briefing a Congressional Delegation on asylum seekers details that the City of Chicago requested a whopping $66 million to deal with the migrant crisis. By April of 2023 the City of Chicago had already spent $75 million settling immigrants and was spending a staggering $20 million per month to address the myriad needs of the newcomers including housing, food, and healthcare.



The question as to how much has been spent cumulatively is difficult to estimate. According to the City of City of Chicago’s Vendor Payments – New Arrivals Mission cost dashboard, the City has spent over $541 million from July 2022 to October of 2024. Previous reporting from Behind Enemy Lines and Gateway Pundit detailed the involvement of Catholic Charities and Obama Foundation affiliate NGOs working to place migrants into housing using some of these funds. However, as the previous reporting indicates, the federal government is subsidizing Catholic Charities by over $1 billion dollars as of 2021. It’s difficult to discern the total amount spent for the new welfare class being forced upon the American taxpayer but it’s likely reaching into the billions.

Most egregious however, is the revelation that the entire Chicago Federal delegation wrote a letter to DHS Secretary Mayorkas and the FEMA administrator asking for $20.5 million. The request was to use the Emergency Food and Shelter Program to fund the migrants coming from the southern border. All the while, Chicago’s homeless veterans have been freezing in the winter months while the City of Chicago, Catholic Charities, and Obama Foundation cutouts funnel non-citizens into housing paid for by Illinois and federal taxpayers. Cementing this unholy alliance is a majority Democrat governing body in Illinois which saw fit, through Public Act 103-0232, to make it a civil rights violation for property owners to discriminate based on “immigration status.” Legislation was likely needed in order for the government to properly manage the logistics of housing thousands upon thousands of new arrivals...
I expect there will be massive and immediate apologies from the likes of Mayorkass and his higher ups. AmmIrite?!?

Still talking about the wrong buckets and not money appropriated for the Disaster Relief Fund

I feel I'm owed an apology for having to read that to confirm.

The OP clearly can’t read what he quoted from. And definitely doesn’t understand.

AmmI...lyin?!?
The thread died because it was full of lies.

Your news is not related. So I fixed your closer. Yer welcome.

FEMA doing well in my neck of the woods that was pretty hard hit by Milton...ijs..

I know it's not fun to hear good things, though. My apologies.

Let the lies and misrepresentations continue!

(BTW...why didn't you include your "source" for that little gem above? No time to edit the hyperlink?)

Thanks for clarifying what ever it was you think you managed to clarify with whatever imaginary and insightful wisdom that you could muster.
