WH: Biden now ‘perfectly comfortable’ with migrant payouts — after calling $450K report ‘garbage’
NY Post ^ | 11/4/2021 | Steven Nelson

The total amount paid out could reach close to $1 billion to settle lawsuits filed over the separations.

President Biden is “perfectly comfortable” with cash payouts to migrant families whose members were detained separately after illegally crossing the US-Mexico border, White House Deputy Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said Thursday.

The answer comes just a day after Biden labeled as “garbage” a report that his administration is considering $450,000-per-person payments.

Jean-Pierre pointedly pivoted Biden’s assessment after the American Civil Liberties Union on Wednesday night said Biden “may not have been fully briefed about the actions of his very own Justice Department.”

“If it saves taxpayer dollars and puts the disastrous history of the previous administration’s use of zero tolerance and family separation behind us, the president is perfectly comfortable with the Department of Justice settling with the individuals and families who are currently in litigation with the US government,” Jean-Pierre said at the daily White House press briefing.

The real issue is the cut that is going to the lawyers representing the “victims” and that is why Brandon is going forward with this = to pay off the lawyers raping America.

Please everyone, use the word Garbage in every possible opportunity on every possible platform when referring to this administration. Let the algorithms do their business for us.

The separations were done in accordance with Federal Law.

The idea of paying reparations is ludicrous.

The prosecutor agreeing to this should be charged with corruption. And if the judge accepts it, should be impeached and removed. Hopefully Judaical Watch or someone will intercede for the American people. This can not be allowed to happen.

It was garbage until Biden’s puppeteers said it wasn’t.

This will open the doors to all manner of other restitution and reparations.

The country is already broke and still spending like drunken sailors. We’re going to pay a very heavy price for this insanity. We’ll the elites won’t, but the masses certainly will.

More of the Biden logic… Giving illegals a billion dollars “saves taxpayer dollars.”

Is that loon arguing that they asked for two billion, so we are getting a bargain at one billion?

“The separations were done in accordance with Federal Law.”

Furthermore, I’ll bet the families are more happy being separated in America than they were being together in wherever they came from.
