This is infuriating.
Joe Biden and the Democrat majority government are spending $72,000 per person to house illegal aliens and fake refugees in hotels in Texas and Arizona.
The average median household income in America in 2019 was $65,712 per household. And that was before the, before the Fauci lockdowns in 2020.

Biden’s Plan to House Illegal Immigrants in Hotels to Cost Taxpayers $72,000 per Border-Crosser: Report
President Joe Biden’s plan to house migrants in United States hotels is set to cost American taxpayers about $72,000 per border crosser awarded a room, analysis details.
This week, the Biden administration announced it awarded a Texas-based nonprofit an $86 million contract to pay for hotel rooms in the U.S. for border crossers. The contract is for six months and will provide rooms to about 1,200 migrant families.
Analysis by former federal immigration judge Andrew Arthur, a fellow with the Center for Immigration Studies, finds the cost to taxpayers is expensive.
Arthur writes at CIS.org:
On March 20, Axios reported that the Biden administration has entered into a six-month contract worth $86 million to house 1,200 migrant family members near the Southwest border in Texas and Arizona. That works out to $71,666.67 per migrant, paid by your tax dollars, meaning that you are now a co-conspirator to one of the largest smuggling schemes in history.
Keep in mind, as the outlet notes, that $86 million is just the beginning, as the contract (“through Endeavors, a Texas-based nonprofit” — I would hate to see the tab if they were in it for the money) “could be extended and expanded”.
Why does the Biden administration need $86 million in hotel space? ICE, which detains adults and adults traveling with children (family units or FMUs), is already using its family residential centers (FRCs) as “rapid-processing centers with the goal of releasing families within 72 hours”. But apparently even with that short turn-around time, the agency is running out of space.
By the way, $71,666.67 divided by six months equals $392.69 per person per night. One night at the AAA-rated three diamond Best Western Plus Laredo Inn & Suites for two adults and two children is $127.49 per night ($111 for AAA members), and includes a free breakfast, refrigerator, and microwave.
Money laundering.
Taxpayers will pay for the destruction and damages at these hotels also..
The median income in the USA is $31K.
The Federales are spending over twice the median income of American citizens to provide each invader with food, shelter, services, money, etc.
If I remember correctly, I think it’s cheaper to stay at the Biltmore.
This is why America needs that wall completed.
Elsewhere I saw it was for 1,200 families, so that would be about $20 per person < /s>.
So which is it, 1,200 people or 1,200 families? I saw both when I searched but didn't find anything that looked official.
That’s hundreds of dollars more than the military reimburse service members who move to another duty station.
Makes sense.
I think the maximum I ever paid for a hotel room was $120 per night. That was because the company I worked for booked me into a hotel that was near the conference hotel, but that hotel went beyond what I was allotted. Personally, I believe I never paid more than $90 per night and that was more-or-less an emergency. (Note, I haven’t traveled since 2012.)
So, yeah, I am really, really using up some urine here.
True, because these “wonderful, hardworking, family values” people are destructive pigs. Just look at any neighborhood they have taken over, as well as the places where they crossed the border.
If it’s for 1200 families, it is still $72,000 for a half year, which is a bit more than what average American family makes and a lot more than what was spent on National Guard troops in D.C. protecting against ‘insurrection’.
Leftists xare more about foreign criminals than their own citizens

There are no words...
What, they couldn’t stay at Motel 6???
And they still may be losing money having to deal with the bed bugs that are sure to be found.
And I never even got a matching set of bath towels.
No kidding. Which fat cat democrat donor owns the hotels these lice are staying in? Pritzkers? Marriott?
I can’t express the loathing I feel for the Republicans and SCOTUS justices who stabbed President Trump and us in the back.
