China Joe Is Good With $600 For You, Wants Lots More For Migrants

We can’t quite call them illegal aliens yet, as they are waiting on the other side of the border, but, Joe is prioritizing them over Americans

Joe Biden to Get Aid for Foreigners, Settles for $600 Checks for Americans

President-Elect Joe Biden is looking to provide foreign nationals in Mexico with better housing and coronavirus tests as they await their asylum hearings in the United States.

As Biden suggested he is satisfied with Congress allocating just $600 stimulus checks for each American out of a $900 billion coronavirus relief package, his advisers said he will push to fund better housing and coronavirus tests for foreign nationals in Mexico.

Biden said, “Congress did its job this week” in reference to the Democrat-controlled House and Republican-controlled Senate passing the package. President Trump, on the other hand, has demanded the package be reworked to include $2,000 stimulus checks for each American.

On a call with reporters this week, Biden transition team officials said, “they plan on providing funding to improve shelter and humanitarian assistance to immigrants waiting in northern Mexico, as well as provide COVID-19 testing to ensure people presenting at POE have a negative test before being processed,” according to a Buzzfeed News report.

The move, as noted by Center for Immigration Studies Director of Policy Jessica Vaughan, would mean that foreign nationals who have yet to prove their asylum case in U.S. hearings would be provided with American taxpayer-funded aid.

Who’s surprised? In fairness, China Joe did say that the current hideous COVID relief package is just a “down payment“, but, when will he recommend something that actually help? If Congress is going to do something, why not do it now? Why wait? Why put together another package at some time later in the Winter or Spring? Oh, right, because Democrats will attempt to again add all sorts of giveaways for Dem Party run cities and states that when loony tunes with lockdowns and are also really bad with their money.

(Fox News) House Democrats and Republicans are set to make dueling “unanimous consent” requests on Thursday based on grievances President Trump aired Tuesday night to the massive coronavirus stimulus and government funding package lawmakers sent to his desk — exchanging political barbs as it’s still unclear whether Trump will veto the original piece of legislation.

Trump on Tuesday night released a scathing video in which he called panned $600 stimulus checks for Americans as too small, saying the number should instead be $2,000.

He also demanded that “wasteful and unnecessary” spending – Trump specifically listed foreign aid to several countries, along with a few other line-items – be cut from the year-end spending package which lawmakers married to the coronavirus aid so it could all be passed in one vote.

Congress should have split the funding and COVID bills, but, as usual, they think they can get away with jamming stuff through, and know that for all the uproar the People of the United States have no power to do a damned thing.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., swiftly announced plans to bring a stand-alone piece of legislation to the House floor Thursday, when the body is set to meet at 9 a.m. EST in a pro forma session, to boost the stimulus checks to $2,000. By asking for unanimous consent to pass it she will essentially be daring House Republicans to object — which they will, Fox News is told.

“Mr. President, sign the bill to keep government open! Urge McConnell and McCarthy to agree with the Democratic unanimous consent request for $2,000 direct payments! This can be done by noon on Christmas Eve!” Pelosi tweeted Wednesday.

House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., on Wednesday evening responded by announcing Republicans would put forward their own unanimous consent request to address the other part of Trump’s twofold grievances — foreign aid.

This could get interesting.

    Sing Sing Don continues his anti-America treachery. He shits a turd in the punchbowl and is happy to shut down the gov’t on his way out the door. What a guy!

    And Teach attacks President-elect Biden who has nothing to do with Trump’s slow-motion demolition derby!!

    The Dems wanted a larger payout, ya know, say $2000, but the Congressional GOPhers wouldn’t have it! Then Der Trumpenfuhrer shivs McConnell in the back! Classic Trump! The Dems tried to up the payout to $2000 yesterday but it was blocked by GOPhers, who now want the recession to continue if not deepen! How do you profess to love America but hate Americans? Republicans?

    On the way to his Florida bunker he vetoed the defense authorization act forcing Congress to overturn his veto or have the govt shut down in the middle of a pandemic, massive vaccine program, recession and cyber attack from Putin. Genius!

    All because Republicans wouldn’t back Der Trumpenfuhrer’s coup.

    We should all take a moment on this joyous day to thank the Republican Party and her devotees for Trump. What will your “horse in a hospital” do next??

    Teach typed: “We can’t quite call them illegal aliens yet, as they are waiting on the other side of the border, but, Joe is prioritizing them over Americans.”

    Mr Biden isn’t the President, Der Trumpenfuhrer is.

    Please understand that Diaper Don’s tantrum was not to encourage $2000 payouts to Americans in need, after all he didn’t advocate this during the months long negotiations, it was a big F U to Congressional GOPhers who won’t go along with his coup attempt.

    This posturing will not end well for America or Der Trumpenfuhrer, who is setting himself for prosecution.

    Regarding the Mexican border, Mr Biden will end the cruel “child separation as deterrent” policy. Why not test potential immigrants for Covid? We understand that connies like to dress-up their inherent hatred and cruelty as high-minded ideals, like putting lipstick on a pig. Tough shit, connies, elections have consequences.

    And is supporting shelters and Covid testing really prioritizing “illegals” over citizens? No, no it’s not.

    The Dems (and now Trump, of all people) wanted to give Americans larger cash payments ($2000) but the GOPhers wouldn’t have it because it’s “paying people not to work!”
