It isn’t bad enough that Joe Biden opened the U.S. southern border to all manner of criminals, cartels, coyotes, terrorists, and garden variety illegal aliens; now he’s devising an insane plan to pay a small fortune to the would-be border crashers kept out of the country by his predecessor, Donald Trump.
This is no Babylon Bee spoof; this is ripped from the pages of the Wall Street Journal.
Though it’s tempting to shake your head in disbelief, read on. Oh, and make sure you shut your slack jaw because things are about to get worse and we don’t want any dribbling.
The Biden Administration is “in talks” with the lawfare crowd at the ACLU to pay illegal aliens about a half a million dollars apiece — $450,000 or $1 million per family — on “behalf of parents and children who say the [U.S.] government subjected them to lasting psychological trauma” during family separation.
That’s right, parents who paid human traffickers $5,000 or more to pile kids in hot boxcars with a bottle of water or led them through the Arizona desert in August over hundreds of miles were understandably traumatized, and for some reason, it’s the U.S.’s fault. When people say that children are in the country “through no fault of their own,” remember who paid the coyote: Mom and Dad.
But instead of telling illegal aliens that they wouldn’t have had any “psychological trauma” if they hadn’t embarked on a journey to break our immigration laws, the Biden Administration is discussing a settlement fund the likes of which we haven’t seen since the 9/11 Victims Compensation Fund according to the Journal.

Whatever it takes to overwhelm the system.
FROM THE WALL STREET JOURNAL:
The American Civil Liberties Union, which represents families in one of the lawsuits, has identified about 5,500 children separated at the border over the course of the Trump administration, citing figures provided to it by the government. The number of families eligible under the potential settlement is expected to be smaller, the people said, as government officials aren’t sure how many will come forward. Around 940 claims have so far been filed by the families, the people said.
The total potential payout could be $1 billion or more.
The Trump administration in May 2018 implemented a zero-tolerance approach, in which agents apprehended everyone crossing the border illegally, including those seeking asylum. That practice meant that children accompanying those adults were separated from their parents and put on a separate administrative track.
[…] President Trump ended the policy through an executive order on June 20, 2018, following bipartisan blowback and global condemnation.
How much finds it way back to the Democrats? Of course just asking for a nameless friend........
It wasn’t Trump’s policy, it was Bill Clintons.....................
Path to America
Path to illegal entry
Path to Citizenship
Path to Prosperity
Path to Democrat Power
I can’t fathom the gall this requires.
Does he need to get this passed by Congress or can he just do it by fiat?
Float an invitation like that and the illegal migrants will never stop coming until the country literally collapses and then we’re all effed! FJB!!
Hahah blacks are still fighting for their reparations. I ‘d be pissed! Democrats believe money solves everything.
The families of the 13 fallen in Kabul recieved $400,000 plus $100,000 death gratuity.
One payment per servicemember day.
Compared to being separated after breaking our immigration laws for each family member affected.
If this happens, I retire from active service and run for office where I’ll yell at every idiot in Washington because I don’t care about re-election.
Seperated under the “Trump Administration” policy. Hmmm - will this also apply to those seperated during the obozo-biden regime? Remember, they are the ones who built “the cages” the kids were locked in.
Tucker addressed this on his program last night, boldly asking the question I’ve been asking for some time (I’m paraphrasing): “with this kind of craziness, how long before Americans finally say ‘enough is enough’ and stop paying their taxes?”
Not a dime. The Rs should introduce a resolution in opposition to paying these criminals a cent - it will force phony “moderates” from Red States like Tester (Montana) and Brown (Ohio) in the Senate and House to take a position and if they favor this billion dollar payout, it won’t play well with their electorate.
Those filling suit have no standing. Isn’t that what the Trump loyalists were told by the courts?? What’s good for the goose is good for the gander.

I hope someone is keeping names for the day a People's (No, not the socialist kind) convicts these criminals, seizes their assets, and compensates the US taxpayers with the proceeds of the liquidation of those assets.
As far as the individuals convicted, removal from society for the rest of their lives.
Can you fathom why Bush League Republicans support this?
Every one of them that has voted for amnesty has.
Rubio, Grahamnesty, Hoeven, etc.
Good setup for giving blacks, who were never slaves, $800,000 each for slavery.
This country has gone insane.
” ‘enough is enough’ and stop paying their taxes?”
Democrats aren’t anti slavery. They just made all the working tax payers the slaves.
Democrats are evil. Don’t ever forget that. They vote in a block to destroy this country. There is never a democrat that is worthy of a vote no matter how crappy the repub candidate is. It’s about the balance of power. Can’t ever let democrats get the majority. Anywhere.
I myself am a 7 year old latino child who was seperated from my parents in Trump’s concentration camps.
PAY ME, BITCHES.
