On July 9th 2014 President Obama made a visit to Dallas Texas for two reasons. The first reason was fundraising, the second reason was to meet with Governor Rick Perry and “Faith Leaders” to discuss the border crisis.
...The impression intended would be that President Obama just met with a bunch of religious organizational heads, perhaps priests, pastors and ministers. Along with “faith based” advocates who are helping to deal with the immediate needs of the illegal aliens, unaccompanied minors, and the larger “border crisis”.
You would be wrong.
To avoid my calling our President of The United States a liar, I will instead say President Obama is being intentionally obtuse, perhaps even deceitful. Here’s why
... there’s a problem, none of them are religion based organizations. None of them have churches. None of them have congregations or parishioners’.They are the heads of government funded non-profits.
Remember ACORN? Same/Same.
They are taxpayer funded corporations who exist almost exclusively on government grants. Despite the words “Baptist” and “Catholic”, these are NOT religious “faith based” groups.
The name Baptist and Catholic is only to give the appearance of “religion” and add a dose of “charity” to the appearance.
....We recently stumbled upon Mr. Kevin Dinnin when we were looking around for the primary recipients’ of HHS Grants and we came upon the 2012 tax filings of BCFS, or more accurately BCFS EMD where Kevin Dinnin is the principal officer and CEO. Paid at an annual salary of $477,799+
This one group alone makes ACORN seem small ball in comparison.Two days before this meeting with President Obama, on 7/7/14 Mr. Dinnin was given a grant from Health and Human Services in the amount of $190,707,505.
Yes, that is over $190 million dollars just before he met with the President. In 2014 alone BCFS has received almost $270 million.

North Carolina Baptist Men, a genuine faith based relief agency, supported by the donations of NC Baptist churches, set up their field kitchens and fed 60,000 meals on the second day after hurricane Sandy hit New Jersey.
With a $190 million grant, they could probably take all 65,000 “unaccompanied children” back home to their parents in Central American and while there, get the families clean water, a vegetable garden and chickens & rabbits in the backyard.
Calling BCFS a “Baptist relief organization” is like calling Bill Clinton “a defender of women’s virtue”.
The “faith leaders” were thrown in only to add some kind of credibility to this invasion. It’s all bull****.
A FReeper posted the salaries of the *leadership* of BCFS...astonishing. They also found that several entities were being run out of their one San Antonio address. I wish someone (maybe Breitbart, GatewayPundit, etc.) would blow the lid off of this newly resurrected ACORN operation.
Maybe they will ;)
Thank-you for this clarification. I am really sore at the Catholic church right now and I have a bishop that celebrates the illegals in our diocese. I can’t stand to read the weekly Catholic paper because it is filled with “social justice” accomplishments.
I think, by now, it’s clear that the “we” you mentioned are in on it.
Leader and mac daddy do not belong in the same sentence.
Another good article..
“Unaccompanied Alien Children” Transfers To Your Community ? – UAC Research – Where Are The Illegal Aliens and “Unaccompanied Alien Minors” Being Placed ?
We have also included the exact amount of the HHS grant for two reasons. Number one, so that you can see how much this is costing you, the taxpayer. However, there is a more valuable secondary reason. We have identified (through extensive research) that each UAC, each individual, is estimated/evaluated at a HHS cost level of around $40,000 per grant (give or take). So if you see a grant for $2,325,000 you can divide by $40k and find out that’s about 58 (people) UAC’s in that facility or process for the quarter (3 month period), or time they are being transitioned/processed in that facility or organization.
Well said. I gathered from what I could find (and it takes some darned hard searching to find anything) that BCFS had originated out of a faith based desire to provide for orphans. That dropped away once the government funds started flowing and they seem to have been taken over by what are community organizers.
I just note that a lot of the Baptist affiliated CFS groups are posting on their web sites that they have NO affiliation to this creepy group in Austin
