Officials from the Departments of Justice, Homeland Security, and Health and Human Services are considering the payments that could total close to $1 million for two people within the same family, people familiar told the Wall Street Journal


"F" you Biden. I have been contributing to my 401K for over 40 years to accumulate $1 million in my retirement account. Little did I know that all I had to do was be a criminal and sneak into the country one night and I would get the same amount. If he does this I ain't paying another freaking dollar in taxes.

The total potential payout could cost $1 billion or more.

If you think that this is the worst thing they have considered doing with your money you would be sadly mistaken.

This has been posted a few times since I saw it in the wsj

I have had some time to think, and it still makes no sense.

I need to see a few more of puzzle pieces, but I really do not want to.

I have a feeling it is going to be like a halloween slasher fest with you and I getting slashed

This must be a typo. Shouldn’t it say a $450k fine?

Some lawyer(s) had a ‘bright’ idea about how to get some huge paydays from the illegal border crossings. And, no doubt, there is someone (or some people) at the federal government level urging them on, in order to collect some kickbacks. The ‘separated’ illegals won’t see much of their payments, since most of the money will be swallowed up by the lawyers and their cohorts who expect the kickbacks.

It’s a get rich quick scheme, and the people getting the bill had nothing to do with it.

I have a better idea, give each of the suffering families a Hunter Biden painting.

Hey Biden how about the family of Kate Steinle who were separated from their child by a 5 times deported illegal alien? Gunned down on the San Francisco waterfront while walking with her dad.

This would be one more way to divide America.

This would SOOOO piss off every tax paying citizen.

This would SOOOO piss off Black America.

This would SOOOO piss off every Haitian and Hispanic person who couldn’t lie his way into having been separated at that border.

They really WANT civil war, don’t they?

Obama still needs an equally-armed Army.

Those families were separated during the commission of a crime. That’s on them, not us. If this is allowed to happen, our sovereignty as a nation is over. Seems that is what’s the biden administrations goal is.
