The Biden administration is in talks to offer immigrant families that were separated during the Trump administration around $450,000 a person in compensation, according to people familiar with the matter, as several agencies work to resolve lawsuits filed on behalf of parents and children who say the government subjected them to lasting psychological trauma.

I wonder what will be the response to this in the upcoming election in Virginia?

It'll be a replay of the Newsom recall.

We still haven't fixed all the avenues of cheat.

..... Any chance this report is actually a Democrat Psyops Operation to further divide the nation????

...... If so .... why doesn't the Conservative movement have a Counter operation to drop off flyers and Information to every Home Depot and gathering point of Illegals .... telling them to demand their .... "REPARATIONS" .... for being separated from their loved ones for a few days or months??? .... Bet the activist Black Community would get a real hearty chuckle out of All of this .....

The media will blame trump, he was “the bad guy that separated families at the border, and now we had to pay them all millions of dollars each”

1) This is a big pay off to illegal alien immigration lawyers
2) The money paid to the illegals will be tax free because legal settlements don’t get taxed. But their funds will becoming from the taxed money of US citizens.
3) The citizens of the US will have their $600/or $10,000 transactions spied on to make sure the illegal alien slush fund coffer is always fully funded.

This is the replacement population and they need a head start to displace the Whites Blacks Browns and Yellows here already.

2 adults - $900K, 2 kids $900k for a grand total (before lawyer and coyote fees) of $1.8M. Add in grandpas, grandmas, a few additional kids and the sky is the limit.

Once ensconced in their brand new 3500 sq ft homes, they will never have to work again - just continue to vote Democrat. And as part of their settlement for their hardships in obtaining a kid from the cartels, they are also demanding permanent US citizenship.

FJB Admin justification is that it would be far more expensive to settle these bogus lawsuits in court.

[[$450,000 a person]]

If your kid is killed in combat, you get a tax free settlement of $100K - Contrast and Compare.

So, a foreign national commits an illegal act by setting foot in this country. This country, in the process of apprehending them, separates them from other members of their family. Now, keep in mind, they illegal aliens are the ones initiating the family separation in the first place.

Then, they are granted certain perks when they get here. Food, shelter, health care, education, legal assistance - all on the dime of the United States taxpayer. They are issued an appearance ticket, which they promptly disregard.


They then contact a leftist lawyer and set up a class action lawsuit involving them and 1000 of their ‘friends’ each asking for $20 compensation. This is the justification for the lump sum payouts - to head off these cases from coming to trial.

This is what I would call a legitimate impeachable offense.

How about all the US citizens who have been arrested and held without charge, in cruel and inhumane conditions, with no contact with their families some of whom have died in custody due to their treatment? Do they and their family get a half million dollar settlement? Last I knew, “parading” and “trespassing” was not a federal crime. Isn’t there some lawyers, somewhere, who’d like to file a class action suit?

In many cases it's not even trespass, they were invited in by capital police.

I know it’s sick. Or if they are wounded and crippled for life, they don’t get much either

Many liberals are just scum of the earth. They are doing this for votes, and to create a rush of more immigrants to come here to get their “slice of the pie” which they aren’t entitled to

In my profile lage, I have a bunch of stats about what illegals are costing us per year (today, that cost is likely now over 1 trillion dollars a year), and how much crime they really commit.

Nearly 75% of them come here not to work, but to go on government assistance, some to the tune of $45,000 per year as they soak our government programs for all its worth

Prisons in places are nearly 70% illegals, at a cost of more than $145 a day (got that from an old figure years ago) per illegal on average. For every 1,000,000 illegals in prison, that alone is $145,000,000 per year.
