Obama has officially requested $3.7 billion in emergency funds for the border crisis with $1.6 billion going to the DOJ and DHS, $1.8 billion for Health and Human Services and $300 million for the State Department.
Obama caused this crisis and did so intentionally. We have proof that this was a planned event that was prepared for at least as early as this past January. We’ve even had a border agent defy gag orders to expose this as an intended operation.
Now Obama will flood federal agencies with cash in order to beef them up with more personnel, arms and paramilitary units. Very little of this money will be used to actually handle the crisis – these illegals are here to stay.
“Today, I ask the Congress to consider the enclosed emergency supplemental appropriations request. . .to comprehensively address this urgent humanitarian situation,” President Obama said in a letter to House Speaker John A. Boehner (R-Ohio).
The administration’s comprehensive strategy represents a “super-aggressive deterrence and enforcement strategy,” a senior administration official told reporters, speaking on a conference call on condition of anonymity to provide more details.
Breaking down the White House’s $3.7 billion requestThe request also will include an additional $615 million to help the federal government fight wildfires.
Administration officials had previously said that they would be requesting more than $2 billion to help stem the recent surge of women and children from El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras. More than 52,000 unaccompanied minors and 39,000 women with children have been apprehended on the southern border this year, far more than in past years.

How about me?.. I NEED a handout/HELP…. I’m a single father and NEED HOUSING so I can get on my feet and be self sufficient!!
He’s a loser and a traitor!
Hell no not one dollar.
Hang the lying bastard.
This was in the Central American newspapers…”Almost all agree that a child who crossed the border illegally with their parents, or in search of a father or a better life, was not making an adult choice to break our laws, and should be treated differently than adult violators of the law,” Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson is quoted in a story about a new two-year extension of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals Act published by Diario El Mundo in El Salvador…..WHAT IS THAT BUT A CALL TO COME TO THE BORDER?
The government places ads on the Central American media that anyone who can get their kids to the border will be given citizenship or at least not turned away. Then they petition the taxpayers and congress to pay for them. It’s the old ploy of “Don’t let a good crisis go to waste!” When you don’t have a convenient crisis, MAKE ONE! Who cares about the lives and safety of those children? What kind of leaders do we have where the children are the fodder for their diabolical agendas?
don’t give him anything let him spend his own money not ours. what a devil.
Only give him money to send them back to their home! Just plane tickets….their government has places ready for them to come back. And it won’t cost $3.7 billion either.
Why should we pay. Let him pay he caused this. I say no to all that money. If they want that money let them give up their vacations and stay home. My opinion and how i feel about this
damn every democrat involved
Obummer you suck and I spit on you!
