Yesterday, CTH noted the response from Joe Biden about his DHS, HHS and DOJ agreeing to pay illegal aliens restitution was clear and specific evidence Biden had no idea it was happening. {Go Deep} The question from Fox News was the first time Biden had ever heard about the issue.
The people who really run the Executive Branch never told the White House occupant anything about the agreement, because Biden is essentially irrelevant to what they do on a daily basis.
As a result, yesterday Joe Biden called the media reporting “garbage” and said “it’s not going to happen.” Today, the White House attempted damage control and spun the issue as if Joe Biden was just not aware of the settlement amount. The strained attempt to cover for the reality was evident in Deputy Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre’s response today from the podium. WATCH:
[Transcript] … “President Biden is calling these reports about the administration paying up to $450,000 to illegal immigrants who are separated from family members “garbage.” He says it’s not going to happen. But the ACLU says that it is. So, who is right?
MS. JEAN-PIERRE: Are you talking about the question you asked him yesterday?
Q Yes.
MS. JEAN-PIERRE: So, 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 U.S. government. You know, DOJ can obviously speak more to that process. The President was — what he was reacting to was the dollar figure that was mentioned — that you mentioned to him yesterday.
As press accounts today indicate — there’s been press accounts on this — DOJ made clear to the plaintiffs that the reported figures are higher than anywhere that a settlement can land.
Again, this is a — this is something that the Department of Justice can speak to. I do not have anything more to add to this.
Q But if it’s not — if he’s not okay with $450,000, how much money is he okay giving these illegal immigrants?
MS. JEAN-PIERRE: This is some- — again, Peter, this is something that the Department of Justice is going to handle. I just laid out what he was thinking and how this is — the process was moving forward. The DOJ will talk to the specifics of this.
Q And so what changed, then, from yesterday? You’re saying that he would be “perfectly comfortable” settling with these families who broke the law to come here, but, yesterday, he said, “That’s not going to happen.”
MS. JEAN-PIERRE: First of all, let’s remember how we got here, how we got to a place where we’re dealing with families being separated. This is coming from the last administration’s cruel, inhuman, immoral — immoral policies against — against just people. It’s separating children from their families — 18-month-olds, 2-year-olds, 5-year-olds from their families.
That’s how we got here is because of the last administration. This is what we’re trying to deal with here in this administration. So, let’s be very clear of how we got here and what’s happening.
Anything else that you would like to know about this, again, I’ll — I’ll send you to the Department of Justice. I can’t speak to specifics — any more specifics on this. (read more)
Everything democrats say is a lie….understand that…make no mistake.
She was perfectly clear, Trump’s fault.
Ms. Jean-Pierre enunciates clearly and effectively reads her prepared lawfare script quite well….she should be commended on her cuteness.
Cute in a Satanic kind of way.
Peter Should have told her that is exactly whats happening to US citizens, cruel and inhuman treatment of the J6 protesters …..
Yes; and, she looks like a younger version of Chicago Mayor Beetlejuice to me…
She’s revolting.
Damn, been outed again. OK it’s not $450,000 per person, no way we’re paying that. It’s $425,000. You know because of Trump.
Check out who the lawyers are. Bet they are getting at least 30%. Just another scam to line the pockets of their cronies.
They don’t have time to work on the problems of our country, they’re too busy coming up with ways to skim off the bad deals and settlements they are making on our behalf.
For some reason, all this talk about F. Joe Biden not knowing the exact amount of the illegal alien reparations reminds me of a joke…
A fairly well off fellow met a stunningly sexy young woman at a bar. He bought her a drink, chatted with her a bit and ended up asking if she would have sex with him for a million bucks.
She didn’t hesitate very long before saying she would.
The gentleman then asked her if she would do it for a hundred bucks.
She said, “Hell no! What do you think I am? A common whore?”
To which the gentleman replied, “We’ve already confirmed that. Now, we’re just haggling over the price.”
And the American Communist Legal Union, formerly known as the American Civil Liberties Union, is ALL IN on VACCINE MANDATES, because of course they are.
Would this Agency consider negotiating such a sweet deal for each and every American Citizen deprived of THEIR CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS of life, liberty, and property due to the Jabs for Jobs Program?
Not a chance.
Marxist, lying, evil garbage, and that goes for her boss too.
She ain’t THAT cute. Just sayin’…
Why hasn’t anyone asked “why doesn’t POTUS know what’s going on?”
FREE JOE BIDEN
Flores ruling was Bill Clinton’s fault- and the ACLU backed it in 1993 when it passed legislation. Lol
They will get away with it as long as they have cover from the media. Take that cover away and it’s game over for them. That’s the challenge for us.
Tough to do when Doocy is the only one asking questions on topics other than ice cream flavors.
At this point it seens to me that they are blinded by their own ideology and never question their assumptions. Everyone they know agrees with them. Those that don’t are worth their time. Drunk on their own propaganda and they, for the moment, believe every word.
The ACLU is taking the government to court on behalf of the illegal invaders. Is the ACLU suing the government on behalf of the thousands of American’s being fired because they refuse to take a lethal injection in order to keep their jobs? Is the ACLU suing the government on behalf of Americans who have lost loved ones as a result of being vaccinated?
When are they going to settle for when Obama kept kids in cages?
What will they pay the J6 Patriots sitting in the DC jail without food, medical care, or a trial based on evidence? In a just world, they would get plenty, but we are not there.
unless the people settle that case, that will never happen.
A: When the big hand touches the little hand.
A good follow-up question to Biden might be, “Since goverment money is really taxpayer’s money, which taxpayers should be made to pay for these illegal immigrants that broke into our country?”
“invaded our country?” Fixed it for you.
It’s not a “settlement”. The ACLU, the illegals, the Regime–they’re all on the same side.
Like Obama and Kerry “negotiating” with Iran.
Do we need to ask the ACLU what their cut of the pie is?
How about the families of the 13 young soldiers who were intentionally placed as targets for suicide terrorists in Afghanistan, or the American citizens who we left behind to die in Afghanistan?
SGLI payout for a soldier killed in action is only $400,000.
The ACLU is shaking down American taxpayers.
It’s all about the Benjamins.
The ACLU no longer offers any value to American society.
And they should be done away with.
President Trump was under an Obama Administration signed Consent Decree by a federal judge ordering the illegal immigrant children be detained separately from their adult parents to prevent sexual abuse! Why would we have to pay damages for following a federal judge ordered policy!
The people here brought them to be trafficked to pedophiles.
Often they weren’t the parents.
Brought them here
Exactly! In any event the federal court ordered the separation. Why would the government have to pay damages for following a federal court order?
Then there is also the question of which are the 30% and will they get the $450K too?
May 20, 2019 – Take a look at this story from the Washington Examiner:
In a pilot program, approximately 30% of rapid DNA tests of immigrant adults who were suspected of arriving at the southern border with children who weren’t theirs revealed the adults were not related to the children, an official involved in the system’s temporary rollout who asked to be anonymous in order to speak freely told the Washington Examiner Friday.
MS. JEAN-PIERRE: “First of all, let’s remember how we got here, how we got to a place where we’re dealing with families being separated.
This is coming from the last administration’s cruel, inhuman, immoral — immoral policies against — against just people. It’s separating children from their families — 18-month-olds, 2-year-olds, 5-year-olds from their families.
That’s how we got here is because of the last administration. This is what we’re trying to deal with here in this administration. So, let’s be very clear of how we got here and what’s happening.”
Total BS
My blood is boiling so badly over this beyond imaginable story – paying “families” who BROKE INTO MY COUNTRY up to $1M, while I await TERMINATION for refusing to take an UNWANTED and UNNEEDED medical treatment.
Yes, you are!
Sorry! I thought you were talking about the Trump administration. The Obama regime was just a dry run for the Biden Regime!
You mean the ‘Clinton Regime.’ Remember she was supposed to win.
Nope, the ACLU is ALL IN on MANDATES, so dream on unless you leave the Country and come back in Illegally.
Kudos Kieth. The powers that be have changed the dictionary meaning of the word VACCINE as we all understood since the days of Salk and polio. A hypodermic injection is what we now are discussing. It is not a vaccination that makes us immune. We all, including myself, were sold the idea that these hypodermic injections would keep us from becoming infected with this disease.
By last administration, she’s actually referring to the Obama/Biden administration.
Now that, I would agree with wholeheartedly!
When you hear, “let’s be very clear” from these communists it means they are as far from the truth as possible. Well…anytime they open their mouths actually.
Yes, Thank you for bringing that tidbit of “let’s be very clear”.
“Let’s be clear” is a dog whistle for I’m going to tell a whopper!!!!
The present “ governance “ of the U.S. is utterly incompetent on every front.
Sure they are malignant narcissists and corrupt.
They are also totally incompetent.
I appreciate many Americans would disagree, but watching the U.K. House of Commons in question period and the rancour back and forth.
Is so much more authentic than these scripted Q and As
It isn’t incompetence…it’s intentional…
The question is did Biden forget he was not supposed to call on Doocy?
Too bad they don’t call on Emerald Robinson (who got suspended from Newsmax today and probably isn’t long for the WH).
Why was she suspended?
She retweeted something about COVID. I didn’t find it particularly problematic, but I guess Newsmax did.
She got suspended from Twitter for those tweets, but she got suspended from Newsmax for this:
https://emeralddb3.substack.com/p/what-is-luciferase
Appropriate name, LUCIFERASE!!!! Wonder who came up with that?
Where does the Department of Injustice get unlimited amounts of our cash to pay illegals anything ?
American
Communist
Lawyers
Union
Should be completely removed from this country once and for all
If only I could give 100 thumbs up.
Everyday goes by more and more people become aware of the “wrong”. Those who do not know what is going on begin to sound more stupid and dumb each day.
How in the hell do illegal immigrants have any standing to sue for anything?
especially when States themselves and actual citizens have ‘no standing’ for harm from vote fraud,.
Does the ACLU get ⅓ of the political payoff?
I think Congress has to approve funding for this scam.
Because democrats blocked the wall funding.
Oh. So the millions left over from our southern border wall that Congress made appropriations for us to build will be turned over to illegal aliens that broke our laws and snuck in? These are crazy times and they are crazy people.
The inmates are definitely running the insane asylum!
You mean Republicans and Democrats.
FJB answered as if the whole idea was garbage not merely the settlement amount. (Forgive my use of settlement the whole thing is a con) If Brandon actually answered questions regularly he should be pressed harder on this. Sundance is right FJB is oblivious to this and pressing him on specifics will destabilize his handlers efforts.
It was a gaffe–“when someone in DC accidentally says something true.”
It’s sad; Joe finally made his first presidential decision—and they made him change it.
What a hellacious joke this administration is.
This is absurd.
I can’t listen this.
Yes, a dirty joke!
Orwell’s novel 1984 and Solzhenitsyn’s GULAG Archipelago, a history of the Communist Russian death-camp system, have never been more relevant!
DoubleThink in Orwell was the ability to accept two contradictory ideas at the same time.
The Manchurian Marionette’s strings were not connected when he spoke the truth yesterday by accident. Now we have DoubleSpeak PLUS Double Think: believe the truth and believe our lie and believe all the other lies spun around our main lie.
And don’t you dare challenge us or we will ruin you, cancel you, persecute you: if America does not yet have death camps for those refusing to DoubleThink, such things are not far away.
We probably won’t be seeing him anytime soon
The kicker is no one can stop this nonsense.
Blame Trump
Not my fault.
The agreement to pay them was already consumatted, no they are just haggling over the price.
They break promises and deals all the time – look at what happened in Afghanistan, look at France who are still pissed off over the deal to sell submarines to Australia that we broke by overriding the deal and making another agreement with Australia instead.
So, she said that 18 months old where at the boarder and separated from his\her family. Can someone explain to me how an 18 months old kid get separated from his parents? Did the kid walk alone all the way from Central America so he\she could somehow reunited with it’s parents? Baloney.
The thing is no way that 98% of that money goes to the illegal. They are funding something, something we are not going to like.
Invasion
It is to incentivize more illegals to come here
How can we stop this insane idea of money in ANY amount being distributed to illegals? Not only have they broken the laws, but we (Taxpayers!) are footing the bill for feeding, housing, transporting, educating and medical care. Now, they turn around and bite the hands of the people who are providing these unearned and unwarranted services? And, the Biden administration is using hyperbole to describe their experiences, just as they have with the Impeachment arguments, the January 6th event, and the Parent’s school board activities.
No way! How can monies be so wantonly distributed without legislation or the vote and agreement of the citizens? Are ALL bureaucratic agencies free to hand out funds to favorite causes without over-site?
Our rights, as taxpayers, are being violated because we have had no input into a policy that will cost tens and tens of millions of dollars or more, to non-citizens in an unjust claim.
How can we stop this?
How can this “injustice” stand up against the inhuman treatment of the Jan 6 Prisoners?
Welcome to California
Can’t we just nuke DC with one of our F15’s?
There are too many
]of them all over the country! Those that might remain would just pick up, start all over again and destroy what’s left of our country!
it was obama that started it but yup lets blame trump.and doesn’t all spending have to be approved by congress?
Asinine, profoundly dishonest and the most revolting aspect is this servant of the beast claim that “This is due to the last Administrations failures and IMMORAL actions and policies”.
What a dispicable witch.
This entire maladministration is an abomination of Deceit, Delusions and Death.
How we got here is when the immigrants came here illegally, thinking the Trump administration would wave them in, like EVERY other administration. Then the Brandon administration partner up with the ACLU. By the way, the previous DOJ enforced the zero tolerance policy. The one one is writing checks.
House GOP introducing bill to stop Biden from paying illegal immigrants millions of taxpayer dollars
https://hotair.com/karen-townsend/2021/11/04/house-gop-introducing-bill-to-stop-biden-from-paying-illegal-immigrants-millions-of-taxpayer-dollars-n426908
How about we reunite these separated families (invaders) back in the country in which they came from?
I’d be ok with a one way ticket back to where they came from.
They got here on their own, let them go back the same way! No more money to assist illegals in any way! Turn them around, and kick them from whence they came (on their own dime/peso!).
I understand Biden is unaware of pretty much anything. I am still trying to wrap my mind around a settlement by the government to pay huge sums of money to illegal border crossers for somehow being mistreated by that government. The evil previous administration, of course, who changed nothing from previous administrations that were all run by pretty much the same people. I mean, this is blatant abuse with the DOJ creating a plaintiff our of thin air and settling with them for no other purpose but to funnel huge sums of money into some outfit that is going to pass a few crumbs to some illegals and spend the rest how? Hiring more ballot harvesters and poll workers and such would be my guess.
Illegal alien family “separation” and the caged children are Obama’s legacy. Trump was well on the way to securing the Southern boarder and managing the boarder jumpers.
I’d guess that the ACLU and more than a few lawyers suddenly have their panties in a wad tonight. Major gnashing of teeth.
Their dealngs are now exposed thanks to Peter Doocy.
The money flows created by “refugees” is the only reason to throw open the boarders. We’re talking billions sifting thru churches and resettlement organizations. The voting bloc angle is a long way off.
Whatta clown show!
Biden is the gift that keeps on giving.
The illegals must not be allowed full citizenship. No voting rights period. Green card holders and workers. Nothing more.
No amnesty.
How can this possibly save tax payers money when they using our money to pay them?
“Separating” my rear end! Deport and take your anchor babies with you back from whence you came! So cruel. They were here illegally, they knew what was at stake and what our laws actually are. This is total bullcrap, what we’re going to bring them back illegally or give these illegal aliens a visa or even worse, citizenship? Just what the heck is going on. We don’t owe illegal aliens anything. I’m sure even FJB speaking how he used to doesn’t actually believe in this “malarkey” from those who are really running the show.
Yup it’s all Trump’s fault! When will the Democraps stop blaming Trump fir THEIR failures????
NEVER!!
The illegal immigrant children were separated from their parents because the Obama Administration signed a consent agreement settling a lawsuit to protect the children against sexual abuse. A federal judge issued the order mandating that illegal immigrant children be detained separately from their adults. President Trump through the DOJ sought to have the federal judge reopen the case and it was denied. So, Biden’s DOJ is making the American taxpayer pay $450,000 to illegal immigrants who were separated as required by an agreement that same DOJ made with a federal judge in California. How freaking insane is that? This is Lawfare and DOJ-Lawfare ripping off the American taxpayer!
Pathetic doesn’t come close to describing this shitshow.
Dems still trying to pretend that Trump’s brief separation of families so it could weed out the non-parent child sex traffickers was:
“Cruel, inhuman, immoral policies, against just … people. It’s separating children from their families, 18 month olds, 2 years olds, 5 year olds, from their families. That’s how we got here, because of the last administration.”
Yet they were perfectly okay with Obama permanently separating half-a-million Central American families by inducing them to send their unaccompanied minor children to America to be raised in foster care on the promise that when they reach they age of majority (or sooner) they can serve as anchor babies for bringing the parents to live on welfare in America as well, along eventually with many other extended family members.
Which proves that they don’t actually care about separating families at all, or actually care about anything at all except for power, because this is a window into how their minds work. What they instruct themselves to “feel”—and this really is what they feel, to the extent that they feel anything beyond the most immediate personal things—is whatever it is advantageous for their political positioning to pretend that they feel.
This is even starker in the present circumstance where the Brandon administration has resumed the Obama policy of taking unaccompanied minors who arrive at our southern border and instead, of sending them back to their parents, salt them into foster care homes around the country, cementing permanent family separation, intentionally induced by the hundreds of thousands with the promise that these permanently separated children will one day serve as anchor-children for the parents who abandon them.
What is the diference between Joe Biden and a bad movie Zombie?
So when is the actual insurrection over this?!! You can’t pay anything to any1 if we DO NOT COMPLY & give them more of OUR $$$! We The American People owe the Upsurpers in the s*it house NOTHING! Let em all rot ?
What is the difference between Joe Biden and a bad movie zombie?
Joe Biden isn’t just pretending?
What did I say yesterday on this?
A WH spokeshack would have to clean it up and spin it.
They had no other choice.
I’m surprised the lady rube didn’t just say that the president was under the impression they would get a million each. Remember, there is no failure in liberal progressive communism, only doubling down.
yeah No it’s the illegal invaders fault… and you corrupt immoral lunatics are using tax payer money to aid and abet illegal crimes to be committed.
What a crock, we all saw that Biden had no idea of the incident.
Biden didn’t know anything about it.
This is unbelievable. They might not ever let the occupant speak again
LGB, L G B , c’mon man. Let’s Go Brandon!
I’m still curious what the raging leftists in Congress who have been pushing reparations for years for blacks think about illegals getting them first.
I’d rather them pay citizens, just saying
To quote Joe Biden is to mention a fool. “Look, let me be clear.” “Here’s the bottom line.” “Some people call me Joe, and some people call me Brandon, but I can promise you this, Joe Biden and Brandon both have no idea what the Biden administration is doing.”
Reparations to blacks is next.
You have that right
I don’t see how the executive branch can just pay out money without congressional authorization or a court decision.
What’s to keep the corrupt DOJ from having their allies sue the government as a pretext to pay off friends and supporters?
Sueing the “Government” is sueing US!!
The “Government” paying illegals is US paying illegals.
The “Government” has ONLY OUR ?to “Spend”
Maybe we all should identify as illegal aliens. We have been separated from family and friends in one way or another since this Chi-nah flu nonsense.
These filthy evil pukes need ………oh-never mind, better not finish my thoughts out loud.
Watch that sign language guy. That can’r be right.
Here’s a great workaround I found on Twitter that the DOJ and WH can circle back on:
Let’s inform Joe Biden who wants to give $450,000 to every illegal immigrant separated from their families to give them an original Hunter Biden painting worth $500,000 instead to every illegal immigrant. Win-win?
I support giving one Hunter Biden painting, worth $450K apiece, to every immigrant separated from their family at the border. Everyone wins.
10% for the big guy.
Operation Wetback II is needed, now.
