Karine Jean-Pierre Falsely Claims FEMA Is Not Funding Migrant Resettlement Amid Hurricane Helene
Daily Wire ^ | 10/05/2024 | Spencer Lindquist

Posted on 10/05/2024 11:51:05 AM PDT by DFG

White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre falsely claimed during a press briefing that Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) funds have not been used to house illegal aliens after administration officials said that the agency lacked adequate funds for the remainder of the hurricane season.

When asked if FEMA funding is being used to house illegal immigrants, Jean-Pierre denied it, calling the claim “categorically false” and “a false statement.” But FEMA openly states that its funding has been used to house illegal immigrants who have entered the United States under the Biden-Harris administration.

While FEMA has diverted funds to house illegal aliens who have entered the United States under the Biden-Harris administration, Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said that FEMA doesn’t have enough funding to sustain operations through hurricane season. The comment came in the wake of Hurricane Helene, which killed over 160 people.

FEMA, which says that its mission is “helping people before, during, and after disasters,” explained in 2023 that it was preparing to spend over $360 million in taxpayer dollars in fiscal year 2023 alone to house illegal immigrants through its “Shelter and Services Program.” That figure increased to $650 million in fiscal year 2024.

Alejandro Mayorkas also said the border was ‘secure’... the only people left stupid and corrupt enouh to believe him are MSM types like NYT’s newsroom denizens and the idiots filling the Washington Post. They believed his earlier lies they’ll believe this too.

Please don’t call that little witch a “bitch.” By calling her a “bitch” you’ve insulted the wonderful mothers of all seven of my living and dead dogs.. Dogs are wonderful, noble animals that do not deserve to be compared to that loathsome humanoid thing.

They lie, they cheat, they steal.

Then they get a good night’s rest and start over the following day.

DJT should pledge if elected he won’t send $1 overseas until NC and Helene damaged lands are made whole again.

When asked if FEMA tax dollar funding is being used to house illegal immigrants, Biden’s press
clown Jean-Pierre denied it, calling the claim “categorically false” and “a false statement.”

But FEMA openly states that its tax dollar funding has been used to house illegals
in the US, welcomed by Biden-Harris, and had diverted funds to finance illegals.



Biden-Harris’ Homeland Security Secy Alejandro Mayorkas said that
“FEMA doesn’t have enough funding to sustain operations through hurricane season.”

The comment came in the wake of Hurricane Helene, which devastated
several states, and reportedly killed over 160 people, to date.

She’s paid to lie for Biden, which makes her a professional liar.

Believe NOTHING coming out of this administration.
They’ve lost whatever modicum of credibility, if any, that they ever had.
Actually, believe the opposite of whatever they’re saying and one would probably be pretty close to the actual truth.

Well, the Southern border and immigration IS a DISASTER, so it does justify FEMA spending on it.

A government so large and with unlimited power to collect from one group of people and give to others.
