Biden-Kamala Regime Burns $1 BILLION in FEMA Funds to Resettle Illegal Immigrants — FEMA Now Lacks Resources for Disaster Response! | The Gateway Pundit
As Hurricane Helene tears through the eastern seaboard, leaving devastation in its wake, the mismanagement of FEMA under the Biden-Harris regime is hitting home with deadly consequences.
The storm’s ferocious winds and torrential rains have claimed at least 190 lives, left millions without power, and trapped countless families in floodwaters across North Carolina and beyond. Entire communities have been cut off from vital resources, with citizens scrambling for help.
Yet, in the face of this national disaster, the Biden-Harris administration’s FEMA appears woefully unprepared.
Why? Because over the past two years, they have funneled more than $1 billion in taxpayer dollars away from American disaster relief efforts — and into the pockets of illegal immigrants.
For the second consecutive year, FEMA has implemented Immediate Needs Funding, putting long-term recovery projects on hold due to a severe shortage in the Disaster Relief Funds (DRF), according to a report from NRDC last month.
With over 614 major disaster declarations still open, some dating back nearly two decades, the agency’s decision to prioritize illegal immigration over American disaster victims has sparked outrage across the country.
FEMA estimates it will fall $7 billion short of the funds needed to manage new disasters, thanks to reckless financial decisions. Instead of rebuilding communities, repairing public infrastructure, or mitigating future disasters, FEMA is sinking taxpayer dollars into programs for illegal immigrants while disaster-stricken Americans wait for help that may never come.
FEMA is blaming the Congress for not appropriating new funding to the agency.
Some of the largest disaster operations that are now on hold.
“We are meeting the immediate needs with the money that we have. We are expecting another hurricane hitting,” Mayorkas told reporters on Wednesday. “FEMA does not have the funds to make it through the season.”
MAYORKAS: “We are meeting the immediate needs with the money that we have. We are expecting another hurricane hitting. FEMA does not have the funds to make it through the season.”
America First Legal shared shocking details in a thread on X that reveals the extent of FEMA’s transformation under Biden-Harris leadership.
Over $1 billion, which should have been used for American disaster relief, has instead been redirected into resettling illegal immigrants through programs like the “Shelter and Services Program.”
According to the Biden administration’s own reports, FEMA allocated $364 million in the 2023 fiscal year and another $650 million for 2024 to provide humanitarian services to illegal immigrants released from DHS custody.
This money is being spent on shelter, food, gift cards, and hotel accommodations — while American citizens drown, wait in shelters, and struggle to survive the aftermath of one of the deadliest storms in recent history.

Over the last 4 years, the Biden-Harris admin has steadily transformed FEMA — the agency responsible for responding to natural disasters like Hurricane Helene — into an illegal alien resettlement agency that emphasizes DEI over public safety.

Over the last 4 years the Biden-Harris admin has steadily transformed FEMA — the agency responsible for responding to natural disasters like Hurricane Helene — into an illegal alien resettlement agency that emphasizes DEI over public safety.
The Shelter and Services Program is designed to exclusively provide shelter and services to illegal aliens.
Over $1 BILLION in taxpayer dollars have been allocated between FY2023 and FY2024.

For example, of that $1 billion, FEMA gave over $38 million to NYC – a sanctuary city overrun by illegal aliens.
NYC, in turn, is handing out gift cards and hotels to illegal aliens.

Moreover, the Emergency Food and Shelter Program has been reshaped to provide funding to “families and individuals encountered by the Department of Homeland Security” – aka illegal aliens.
This is a SEPARATE program.

Beyond allocating billions of taxpayer dollars on illegal aliens, the agency has been entirely captured by the “equity” agenda – a euphemism for discrimination.
The #1 goal of their strategic plan is to “Instill Equity as a Foundation of Emergency Management.”

For example, one of their initiatives to address “equity” is “Prioritizing casework and evaluation for direct housing eligibility for vulnerable populations to include those with access and functional needs or those who have a primary language other than English.”
They even went so far as to publish a “Post-Disaster Guide for Local Officials and Leaders” in November 2023 for “Achieving Equitable Recovery.”
In other words, they are pushing their equity agenda on states and locals as a way of reshaping communities affected by disasters.

In the “Summary of Eight Equity Goals” within the guide, they advocate for “equitable outcomes” and “rebuilt community ‘with justice for all.’”
Effectively, FEMA is factoring race, sex, and sexual preferences into who should receive disaster relief first.

The guide outlines how to “Track and Evaluate Equity Outcomes,” including asking officials to consider if people are receiving “recovery resources” based on “distributive justice.”
“Distributive justice” is just the radical way of saying discrimination based on race and sex.

One of the guide’s goals outlines how to “Overcome Barriers and Ensure Fair Recovery Outcomes” and includes a chart of “barriers to equity,” including:
FEMA also identified “People of color,” “Women,” and “The LGBTQ+ community” as “disproportionately impacted by disaster.”
According to the Biden-Harris administration, natural disasters don’t have the same impact on white straight men.

In summary, the Biden-Harris FEMA views disaster response as an opportunity to propel their radical “equity” agenda and further resettle and support millions of illegal aliens within the U.S.
