Democrats and their media allies are pressuring Republican leaders to support President Joe Biden's $14 billion slush fund to cover up an influx of immigrants during the 2024 campaign.
“They should give me money. I need to protect our border,” Biden told reporters on Jan. 2 about his request for “emergency supplemental” funding.
But House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-Louisiana) and other Republican leaders say the money will be used to accelerate rather than stem Biden's influx of poor economic immigrants during the 2024 campaign. He says it will be used.
“What the White House is proposing is to process more money and bring in more illegal aliens,” Johnson said. Said “We need to do the opposite,” CNN host Jake Tapper said on January 3.
This funding battle has been hidden from the public by highly revealing media coverage of Senate negotiations on border reform and dramatic aid requests for beleaguered Ukraine and Israel. Those negotiations have stalled amid Democrats' determination to protect the “parole” back door at the border, forcing them to step up their $14 billion demand.

In August, Breitbart News reported details of the funding request, which includes at least $5.3 billion to expand immigration.
In his first three years, Mr. Biden and his lawmakers have spent billions of American tax dollars importing (but not removing) at least 6 million immigrants into the United States.
This fund, and the mandate required to transfer more funds, is intended to operate a network of quasi-governmental nonprofit organizations. help Transport and evacuate immigrants to many cities across the country.The request also calls for $800 million. Manipulate New “Safe Travel Offices” in Ecuador and other countries aimed at helping more migrants reach the U.S. border.
This additional funding is in addition to reallocated disaster assistance included in the agency's regular annual budget, which continues from previous years.
Years of funding have enabled the government to establish a vast network of “controlled flow” aid camps for migrants from Panama to New York.
The NGO-run migrant network, also known as the Northside Catch and Release Network, helps many migrants who are brought to the border through cartel-controlled networks. NGOs such as Catholic Charities also work with many American employers, investors, apartment-share renters, and taxpayer-funded consumers seeking cheaper labor.
But in 2023 and 2024, Biden's growing immigration numbers will overwhelm the vast network. Even as millions more migrants head north to welcome Biden, squalid encampments in Mexico, budget cuts in New York, voter protests in Chicago, and migrant protests in Denver tents were created by this crushing.

The $14 billion bill is aimed at smuggling 2024 immigrants into the country and rewarding Democratic-run cities for their cooperation, said the law's founder, Jessica Vaughn. Immigrant Responsibility Project.
She added that the billions of dollars requested would not be enough to hide Biden's 2024 migrant flood from the American people.
Even $14 billion is not enough money…given the numbers currently being released. …People are watching it, and they're going to keep watching it. They will see it in school. They're going to see it in the emergency room, they're going to see it in their housing costs. They will see it everywhere.
Their children will come home and talk about all the foreign languages spoken there. If they happened to live in the suburbs and the house next door was rented out to four different families living there at the same time, they would see it too.
“I think it's going to have a huge impact on suburban America,” she says.
The effects of Biden's migration are being felt in small towns.
As a result, Democrats are stepping up their demands for immigration funding.
“States like Massachusetts desperately need more support from the federal government to deal with this historic immigration surge,” said Massachusetts Democratic Governor Maura Healey. Said of new york times See our January 4 article on this issue. “We need Congress to act on President Biden’s budget, which includes critical funding for border security and cities and states like ours.”
“All I can say is that [$14 billion] If we had money now, we could help cities that are struggling, whether it's Eagle Pass, Chicago or New York,” said Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas). Said CNN. “I can guarantee that mayors will not turn down the funding that the president is trying to push through and that Republicans are refusing,” she said.
Establishment media is rallying to get Biden $14 billion.

of washington post I participated On January 4th he said:
said Thomas S. Warwick, a former DHS official and now a senior fellow at the nonpartisan Atlantic Council. [$14 billion] A cash injection is “absolutely essential” to prevent further collapse of the US immigration system.
“A system that was already under tremendous strain is now stretched to the point where it cannot meet even the most basic legal and humanitarian requirements,” Warrick said.
…
“We need more resources.” [White House spokeswoman Karine] Jean-Pierre said. “House Republicans continue to obstruct the work to address what is happening at the border,” she said.
“You're at the border today, and I think you're seeing a very dire situation,” CNN's Tapper said, pleading with Johnson.
Hard-working border workers…can't do their job with just what they have. they need more money. We need more colleagues and we need more funding. Why has the House not yet addressed this additional $14 billion request from the Biden administration? If the White House is coming after you hard, why not take it up and help?
…
Why not pass President Biden's additional $14 billion bill to fix at least some of these problems?
Prime Minister Boris Johnson responded to border controls by saying: “That won't do much.”
Prime Minister Boris Johnson's office released the report on January 5th. saying:
Just over $2.3 billion, or less than 17%, of the $14 billion requested actually goes toward border security operations. Of that funding, much of it is within the scope of crisis management, such as processing tents, medical services, and supplies, and has little to do with actual border security or internal enforcement, but rather processing illegal immigration into the interior. is related to. as soon as possible, perhaps to hide the humanitarian crisis from public view.
…
In fact, the vast majority of the government's request, over $3 billion, will actually go toward providing direct and indirect aid to illegal immigrants, as well as direct cash assistance, through NGOs.
White House officials and senators negotiating the border deal have not released information about how much money they will provide to Biden's lawmakers in 2024. But the evidence suggests that Republican senators will not be able to get a deal acceptable to Republicans. .
But many Republican leaders understand how Biden and his colleagues will spend the money.
“When I saw this emergency appendix… [we found it] We continue to facilitate the large-scale migration we see across the border,” Sen. Katie Britt (R-Ala.) said at a Dec. 7 press conference. “There was a magnet here that attracted even more people!”
“It would be madness to give the Biden administration more money to pursue its disastrous open border resettlement operation,” said Sen. Bill Hagerty (R-Tenn.). “It will worsen the border crisis rather than stop it,” he said. tweeted October 20th.
This funding would provide “zero actual border security, but would provide more money to process more people, and continue accumulating mountains of debt,” one person said. Tweet By Representative Chip Roy (R-Texas).
“As a nation, we are in a deep, deep, dire predicament, and we have to get serious about these problems,” Johnson told Tapper on January 3.
