DHS Chief Alejandro Mayorkas is being blasted for saying that FEMA has no money left to help Americans in need, even as he has spent billions to fly migrants into and around the country while feeding, housing, and clothing them, all at taxpayer expense.
As the South and East reel from the disastrous effect of Hurricane Helene, many are slamming the absenteeism of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) as millions struggle to recover from the devastation.
Meanwhile, as Mayorkas says the funding for devastated Americans is gone, he and his Dept. of Homeland Security are still spending billions on housing for illegals all across the country.
Hundreds of thousands of Haitians, for instance, are flooding into towns in Louisiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and many other states after the Biden-Harris administration loosened federal immigration restrictions to allow millions of migrants who would otherwise be labeled “illegal” to freely enter the country.
Haitians are flooding small town America, drawn to those communities by low-paying jobs and federal housing subsidies.
This flood of migrants and their housing subsides featured as a topic during the recent Vice-Presidential debate, when GOP nominee JD Vance said that the Biden border crisis drives up the cost of housing for regular, everyday Americans. It is a point that CBS moderators attempted to debunk during the debate, but one that has been substantiated as 100 percent true.
Many — and perhaps most — U.S. states are drowning in the costs of Biden’s migrants, including New York, Illinois, and Colorado.
Amid all this, Mayorkas is taking heat for his claim that FEMA is out of money.
“We are meeting the immediate needs with the money that we have,” Mayorkas said this week. “We are expecting another hurricane hitting. We do not have the funds. FEMA does not have the finds to make it through the season.”
