Breitbart ^ | 12/01/2024 | Simon Kent

Far-left Democratic Denver Mayor Mike Johnston has overseen $356 million of taxpayers’ hard-earned money being spent on migrants. The total amounts to $7,900 per foreign national in the Mile High City.

The sum was revealed by the Common Sense Institute (CSI), a non-partisan research organization dedicated to protecting and promoting the U.S. economy, Fox News reports.

The group says it used city data to arrive at the sum which equates to eight percent of the city’s 2025 budget of $4.4 billion. The figures combine the Colorado city’s budget as well as regional education and healthcare organizations.

This money ultimately comes from Fed.gov regardless of how the city transfers it among its various pockets.

Its why we have a permanent $2 trillion (and growing) budget deficit, and another example of how a printed, fiat currency and Federal Reserve centrally-planned monetary system always favors government and its ideological/political/financial cronies - and will eventually destroy our country.

For his part, Johnston said he is “not afraid” of going to jail, and has compared his efforts the infamous 1989 Tiananmen Square protest in China, the Daily Mail reports.

‘It’s like the Tiananmen Square moment with the rose and the gun, right? You’d have every one of those Highland moms who came out for the migrants. And you do not want to mess with them,’ Johnston said.


There was much more than the rose and the gun that happened. But that was liberal history.

Now do you get it?!

The illegals are for looting the US Treasury.

350 million did not all go to the illegals by a long shot.

Kemala Harris spending one billion without getting a result should be used as a yardstick we measure any failure or waste.

So, if Denver spent close to 1B, we can say, “That is qs bad as Harris campaign!”

It’s much more than that. The free schooling for illegal kids is $500 million a year all by itself. And then there’s the free health care and welfare money they get. More like $2 billion a year spent on monsters that aren’t even allowed to be here.
