GOP Rubber Stamps Joe Biden’s $900M for More Immigration from Ukraine
Breitbart ^ | May 22, 2022 | John Binder

Posted on 05/22/2022 4:48:35 PM PDT by Macho MAGA Man

Late last week, only 57 House Republicans and 11 Senate Republicans voted in opposition to Biden’s $40 billion in additional Ukraine aid. That boondoggle package includes $900 million to fund more immigration from Ukraine even as thousands of Ukrainians pile up at the southern border to get into the U.S.

As part of those millions in funds, Ukrainians will be provided with medical services, housing money, and “culturally and linguistically appropriate services.”

The package states:

For an additional amount for ‘‘Refugee and Entrant Assistance’’, $900,000,000, to remain available until September 30, 2023, for carrying out refugee and entrant assistance activities in support of citizens or nationals of Ukraine, or a person who last habitually resided in Ukraine, for whom such refugee and entrant assistance activities are authorized: Provided, That amounts made available under this heading in this Act may be used for grants or contracts with qualified organizations, including nonprofit entities, to provide culturally and linguistically appropriate services, including wraparound services, housing assistance, medical assistance, legal assistance, and case management assistance.

The majority of House and Senate Republicans voted for the funding, including GOP House and Senate leadership, despite record-breaking illegal immigration levels at the U.S.-Mexico border with no plans to close up gaps in the border wall that remain fully open.

Article states......”That amounts made available under this heading in this Act may be used for grants or contracts with qualified organizations, including nonprofit entities”........

George Soros will be happy to take their share....., the Open Society Foundations are the world’s largest private funder ..... Open Society has been working in Ukraine through the International Renaissance Foundation since 1990.

I’m gonna sneak out (then back in) the Mexican border. I bet these interlopers net more per month than I do on disability.

Never said it wouldnt. But its not a whole lot of money in the grand scheme of things related to federal spending.

BTW the VA system costs around 248 billion per year...

Trust me, 40 billion would significantly help U.S. veterans, VA hospitals/facilities.

Just 1 billion is a 1,000 million. Certainly not chump change.

You could very well be correct, based on the fact their policies can be defined as sabotage.

RINOs slouching towards nuclear Armageddon, but hey it’s in the spirit of bipartisanship and it’s hard thinking about things after a couple of whiskey and sodas with your lobbyist friends.

Congress will still be borrowing money, and then sending it overseas

Hate to shatter your fantasy, but very little of the $40 B will leave these hollowed shores and a goodly chunk of it will stay in the pockets the swamp dwellers in DC.

You bet, these people are racking it off the top...I’d bet a cup of coffee it’s the same with the cartels, which is another reason why they want the border wide open. They don’t want their golden goose killed.

Yea, you’re right. Hopefully, the Ukrainian values can somewhat even out the countries with the Omar culture.

Ok. Who are your Senators? Names and what they’ve done to support the people in the same way President Trump did?

There are only 3, maybe 4, that might be worth something in any given day. Maybe.

I see your point. But unless you’re not voting in any election you’re a participant. Just like I am.

Will that all change? Hopefully. But at every level, the lure of money and power seems to be too overwhelming for them not to turn.

Ukrainian values are arguably just as bad. The problems with racism in America will go through the roof after they arrive.
