The Biden administration’s collusion with the City of Chicago to manage the flood of illegal immigrants isn’t just incompetence; it’s a manufactured crisis funded by your tax dollars. Thanks to a FOIA request by Terry Newsome of Behind Enemy Lines, we now have 207 pages of emails exposing the White House, FEMA, and Chicago officials plotting the placement, transportation, and care of illegal immigrants throughout Illinois. This isn’t humanitarian aid; it’s a government-sanctioned operation to prioritize non-citizens over struggling Americans.
Let’s not forget, FEMA handed over $20 million to Chicago to feed illegal immigrants, with a separate trove of funds potentially allocated for transportation and housing. Meanwhile, Chicago’s own citizens are left out in the cold—literally. While migrants are bused to warm shelters, homeless veterans and struggling Americans are denied access to warming buses. Newsome’s video on X reveals the tragic stories: a homeless man who lost fingers to frostbite, another who knows someone who died in the freezing cold, and a veteran tearfully lamenting the government’s priorities, saying, “It’s like we’re disposable people.”
Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson’s Chief of Staff, Cristina Pacione-Zayas, seems more concerned about migrants sleeping in comfort than addressing the dire needs of the city’s citizens. An email from October 2023 even details plans to provide “mobile assets” to ensure migrants don’t suffer the cold. Yet those same resources were denied to homeless Americans, including veterans who served this country. That’s the Democrats’ playbook: virtue signal about compassion while turning their backs on the very people they were elected to serve.
This crisis isn’t just mismanagement—it’s intentional. Special Assistant to the President Molly Ritner confirmed that 32 federal sites across Illinois, including Department of Defense facilities, were identified for housing migrants. Meanwhile, Chicago’s public services are overwhelmed, police are stretched thin, and crime at migrant facilities runs rampant. All of this points to a hastily orchestrated plan to flood cities with migrants while leaving Americans to fend for themselves.
FEMA, an agency tasked with responding to disasters for American citizens, is now using its budget to care for illegal immigrants. This isn’t a coincidence—it’s a deliberate misallocation of resources. Americans suffering from hurricanes in Florida and North Carolina are left waiting for aid while non-citizens receive food, shelter, and cell phones on the taxpayer’s dime. The same government that manufactured this crisis is now rewarding itself by throwing more of your money at it.
Under the Biden administration, illegal immigration has become a humanitarian crisis for Americans. The Democrats’ obsession with open borders and sanctuary policies is not compassion—it’s chaos. And let’s not forget, this was the same party that vilified President Trump for enforcing border security and prioritizing Americans. Trump’s policies worked, and his promise to address this crisis is more critical now than ever.
This isn’t just about immigration. It’s about a federal government that has betrayed its own citizens to virtue signal on the global stage. Americans deserve leaders who will protect their interests, enforce the law, and ensure their tax dollars go to serve them—not people who broke the law to enter the country. It’s time for accountability, and it’s time to restore order. Democrats have proven they can’t be trusted to do either.
