Obama sneaks $4 billion for illegals in lame duck budget
The Washington Examiner ^ | December 2, 2016 | Paul Bedard

Specifically, $1 billion would provide "cash and medical expenses and social services" for illegals and refugees.

Another $2.82 billion would fund the care of youths flooding across the border in historic numbers. "HHS is experiencing the highest number of unaccompanied children in care and the largest footprint of funded capacity in the program's history, and flows of unaccompanied children have continued to grow over the last months," said the administration's documents.

That increase, which has shocked many immigration critics on Capitol Hill, is far more than the $1.4 billion increase the administration sought for veterans health care in the Fiscal 2017 budget.

Exactly. MSM pundits are constantly questioning where Trump will get the money for the wall. This seems like a big DUH!

This makes me furious. They sling OUR money about with such...I don't know what the word is to describe it, but If I said what I want, I get pulled.

We have got to get control of this government. Traitorous b@st@rds put the interest of illegals before that of American citizens. Grrrrrrrr

He’s priming the pump. Obama’s foundations are expecting huge donations from the countries pouring their citizens into the US.

Fact is, billions of our tax dollars goes back to the federales in Mexico and Central America.

Valerie’s already got the Obama Foundation donation solicitation letter in her text file.

Hey, Paul Ryan gave Obama billions more than Obama asked for in the budget last year, so no wonder Obama’s confident he can get everything he asks for this year. The clueless Congress obviously approve of Ryan’s wasteful expenditures of taxpayers’ money because they voted Ryan in as Speaker again.
We can only hope Pres. Trump shuts down these programs that reward the lawless invasion of our country by squatters from around the world who want to squeeze onto our overcrowded gravy train. That’s why you can’t feed the bears at Yellowstone.

“Once again Obama rejects the safety and the rights of American citizens on behalf of muslim refugees”......

Why wait until January? Its past time to go into the White House and put his ass in chains and drag him out.

He is despicable and dead set on the destruction of this country. He still has time to do more major damage and, which is certainly obvious, our country is NOT HIS country.

Correction: Republicans allow Obama to add 4 billion dollars for illegals in lame duck budget.

I figure in about 300 years, Americans will finally figure out that Congress should not be allowed to pass any lame duck legislation at all.

I’m okay with $4B for illegals. With 11 million illegals in our country today, that is $363 each - enough for bus fare to their home countries. Problem solved.

How about a ride on a C130 and a parachute? How much do you think that would cost? That way we get them so far into their country they’d be less likely to make a U-turn.
