An average American family of four receiving Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP, gets $713 per month, according to Newsweek. However, a migrant family of four receives $1,400 per month. And when it comes to our military personnel, a veteran who has a 50% disability rating with a spouse and one child gets $1,255.16 per month, according to the Department of Veterans Affairs. When one more child under the age of 18 is added, the family gets another $51 per month for a total of $1,306.16 per 30 days, which is $100 less than an alien family on the new prepaid card program.

Republican Councilwoman Vickie Paladino wrote an opt-ed in the New York Post, criticizing the Big Apple’s officials and how they’re handling the influx of migrants.

“In our New Yok City, we are currently staring down a multi-billion-dollar deficit while our streets are falling into disorder, our infrastructure crumbles, our social safety net is collapsing, and our frontline workers are stretched beyond their limits. We are spending more taxpayer money to care or foreign nationals than we are on the annual budgets of the NYPD, FDNY and Department of Sanitation, combined.”

the undocumented are getting more financial benefits than veterans.

Grrrrrrr! The writer becomes (a small) part of the problem when she uses the terms of the left.

Thank you for referencing that article airdalechief.

"One of his newest initiatives – giving debit cards to illegal immigrants – is especially upsetting Americans."


FR: Never Accept the Premise of Your Opponent’s Argument

I understand that both California and NYC, as examples, have budget problems, corrections welcome. So I'm inclined to think that oppressed US taxpayers, as a consequence of corrupt Congress's abuse of its repealable (hint) 16th Amendment powers (16A; direct taxes), are who is actually paying for the debit cards that NYC mayor is giving to undocumented Democrats. (The 17th Amendment (17A; popular voting for federal senators) needs to disappear too.)

I've got some alleged government spending fraud references handy.

Since Congress and likewise renegade states have repeatedly proven that they are enemies of the people imo, it is now up to Democratic and Republican Trump supporters to effectively "impeach and remove" ALL (exceptions?) state and federal lawmakers and executives in November.

In fact, it's up to us Trump supporters to take the first MAJOR step in draining the swamp by supporting hopeful Trump 47 with a new, Constitution-respecting Congress, new state lawmakers too, not only so that he will not be a lame duck president from the first day of his second term, but will support him to quickly finish draining the swamp.

Supporting Trump to finish draining the swamp includes supporting him to put a stop to unconstitutional federal taxes by leading the states to repeal 16&17A, effectively "seceding" ALL the states from the unconstitutionally big federal government by doing so.

Finally, let's not allow the anti-Trump media try to fade our memories of what we witnessed on July 13.
