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.

Don’t be too sure. Nothing is really being done about election integrity so I fully expect the democrap domestic enemy party to steal the midterms giving themselves absolute power. They want to replace us.

Let ‘em try.

Political suicide. Even Biden’s not dumb enough to try this.

What about the ones that were separated during the Obama/Biden administration? If they get the interest along with the 450K, that could be HUGE!

It means being a sucker who gets to pay for the rotten government devils’ efforts to ruin this country.

I have taught classes for legal immigrants who are preparing for their citizenship interviews. They spend a lot of time and money to do it the right way. They have jobs. They undergo a background check. They have to have a certain level of proficiency in English. They must feel like suckers too. All they needed to do was sneak in and set foot on American soil and make one step to the red carpet.

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.

Now on top of this, the United States taxpayer is going to compensate them further because they were separated from their families by the mean old United States of America. Surely, I am missing something. This cannot be what they are proposing. No one is THAT stupid.

At least 40% of this will go to law firms.

This is less than what some 9/11 families got, right? And even that was controversial at the time.

Not legal/constitutional without an appropriation from Congress.

“ No one is THAT stupid. ”

I beg to differ. The land that was America is chock-full of people that stupid, that devious, that destructive. Chock-full, in the hundred+ millions. And in that number is almost every single person in a leadership position at the state, local and federal level…and almost every single public employee at each of those levels.

It’s why this nation has gone the way of Rome circa 400 AD.

Well, naturally, I was being sardonic. Clearly, if 80 million (or was it billion?) people voted for Joe Biden, stupidity is not in short supply.
