Brian Barry | Another pot of money

Good job signaling the perpetuation of the false narrative of FEMA and the money spent on immigrants.

I do not deny that money has been spent on immigrant border crossings in recent years, but the money spent was appropriated by Congress for this problem and disaster relief comes from a different funding source.

Republican governors and state leaders have even denounced these rumors and falsehoods for hindering the truth about what is actually happening on the ground and hindering relief and recovery efforts.

Joe Biden, Kamala Harris and this administration have shown leadership on this issue and have been praised for it by Republican governors.

Trump visited Georgia, which distracted first responders from their recovery efforts, allowing him to turn his visit into a political event.

The Republicans and their presidential candidate have shown a complete disregard for the facts and are more than willing to demonize immigrants, lie for their own political gain, and refuse to solve the immigration problem.
