Reader’s Commentary: FEMA hurricane failures, funds sent to help illegals

Alejandro Mayorkas, secretary of Homeland Security, three months ago, told Americans how well prepared FEMA has been for any emergency. Enter Hurricane Helene, one of the largest storms to hit the U.S. in recent history.

Helene, a category 4 hurricane made landfall in Florida’s Big Bend region then tore into the East Coast of the country with deadly consequences. People in the Carolinas, Georgia, and Florida are in dire need of assistance in every way you can imagine. The catastrophic destruction covers 400 miles.

It’s no surprise Mayorkas lied to us yet again, just as he has about our nonexistent border. Three months after bragging about FEMA’s readiness, Mayorkas says FEMA is out of money. So where has the money gone?

Citizens who have seen their homes floating downstream, who are homeless, without food or water have been given $750 dollars to solve their problems. There has been no air support for mroe than a week. People stranded on rooftops have waited for emergency help with none in sight. How many didn’t make the wait? The numbers are 200 confirmed dead and more than 600 missing to this point.

With no government assistance in this disaster, private citizens have worked to help the survivors. One helicopter pilot saved a family who was stranded only to be told by a cop to stand down or get arrested.

Insane! Musk at the request of Donald Trump employed his Starlink satellites to restore internet service to the region for communication purposes. Other private citizens have gotten into motor boats to look for the stranded as Kamala Harris unconcernedly continued her campaign and Joe Biden was on a Delaware beach.

So how is it FEMA has no money honey? Well it seems illegal alien immigrants are the priority for Biden/Harris, not American taxpayers whose money FEMA spent on, wait for it, illegal alien immigrants.

More than 15 million illegals have entered and flown, on luxury commercial jetliners over our borders deep into our country since Biden/Harris have taken power. This Administration has given these 15 million illegals free housing, free medical care, free health insurance, credit cards with thousands of dollars of credit/month, free food, and Harris has even approved free sex change surgeries for them. This sounds crazy right? So I fact checked about these surgeries. It came up true! Illegal aliens have received $42 billion in benefits. They also qualify for welfare. Imagine: Illegals have access to sex change surgeries and Americans are abandoned on roofs in this hurricane with no help.

According to the Center for Immigration Studies, illegals are a net drain on our economy, meaning they receive much more than they contribute. The lifetime fiscal drain for each illegal alien is $68,000 dollars per person. Remember, we have had 15 million illegal aliens enter our country under Biden/Harris. Please do the math! Multiply $68,000 X 15,000,000 Aliens. I should now ask Coddington “The Sponge” and “Wayne’s World” Johnson to tell us why Americans are only getting $750 dollars after losing everything they have in this Hurricane, while illegals are being offered free sex change operations.

I’ve got to think this is a matter of priorities.

Barack Obama picked Biden as his running mate. He didn’t want anyone to outshine his “brilliance.” Good pick! Biden picked Kamala Harris so he wouldn’t be outshined. Good pick! In an interview in 2021, Harris was asked why she had not been down to the border after being picked as border Czar. Her response: “Well I haven’t been to Europe either.”

Great answer! This is leadership in America today.
