Fact Check: FEMA disaster funds not diverted to migrants by Biden administration
Reuters ^ | Oct. 23, 2024 | Reuters Fact Check

Posted on 02/11/2025 10:07:27 AM PST by Pete Dovgan

The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) only runs a program to house migrants that is funded by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), contrary to posts online saying that FEMA disaster relief funds were diverted by the Biden Administration to house migrants in the U.S. illegally. FEMA and its Disaster Relief Fund have been targets of disinformation in the wake of Hurricane Helene, which devastated parts of the U.S. Southeast in late September.

I wonder if these agencies or individuals received USAID money to say that FEMA didn't use funds for illegals?

Just in case your wondering why they lied, and who was lying.

Or even if Biden's administration lied.

Feel free to repost this on any USAID funded site media site like 'Politico', just so the liberals can make more excuses and praise judges and government employees who prevent audit of Government.

My fellow Americans, you have been lied to and manipulated on an unimaginable scale. Your resources have been stolen from you to support 'grifters' and communist ideology undermining your families, lives, and the lives of your children and children's children. There can be no 'Democracy' or 'Republic' without freedom of speech. The Obama, Biden, and DNC as well as portions of the US government have endeavored to censor truth, investigation, and critical information to the American People. Further, when dissatisfied with the potential for failure of popular vote, they employed illegal aliens and illegal voting practices to silence the voices of Americans. The actions of these individuals, is beyond illegal or even 'sedition', and more akin to a declaration of war against the American people. They have slandered good American patriots, while they have shredded the legal system, stolen from the treasury, impoverished many, and destroyed industry, jobs, and futures. Elon Musk is not evil, those that block the truth of those misdeeds from the American people are the evil. Lord have mercy on their souls, because I will not 'feel' for them when Justice comes.

That’s right, disaster funds are usually fives, tens, and twenties. Monies going to migrants are never less than fifties and hundreds.

You can tell right away that they didn’t use disaster money for illegal.

Parsing words. The funds were never “diverted” they were just spent on illegal invaders rather than a natural disaster.

This how fact checkers lie

I haven’t seen anyone use the word “Diverted”. What people say is that FEMA spent $59 million housing illegals AND FEMA didn’t send squat to NC hurricane victims.

Just more creating writing by leftist fact checkers.

“I haven’t seen anyone use the word ‘Diverted’.”

You’re right. The funds are spent, either correctly or incorrectly. “Diverted” is weasel-wording.

Musk’s boys really need to start checking all “media” outlets to determine how much they received from USATM.
