Under the Biden-Harris regime, the onslaught of government waste continues to surge as their Department of Homeland Security (DHS) unabashedly funnels hundreds of millions more of hard-earned American taxpayer dollars into the coffers of sanctuary cities and non-governmental organizations (NGOs), ostensibly to aid in the resettlement of migrants throughout the United States.
In a move that reeks of fiscal irresponsibility, DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas has recently declared the allocation of over $380 million in Shelter and Services Program (SSP) grants. These funds are earmarked for local and state governments along with NGOs under the guise of providing “critical support” which includes food, shelter, clothing, acute medical care, and transportation for migrants who have been released from DHS custody and are pending their immigration court proceedings.
This initiative is part of a broader scheme by the Biden-Harris administration, having concocted SSP with Congressional backing, to siphon off taxpayer money towards sanctuary cities and NGOs involved in resettling migrants post-release into the U.S. interior from the southern border. This recent injection of SSP grants into sanctuary cities and NGOs represents just another chapter in an ongoing saga of financial recklessness, following closely on the heels of millions already squandered earlier this year — a windfall for entities embroiled in migrant resettlement efforts.

It's worth noting that last year alone saw DHS lavishing more than $780 million on sanctuary cities and NGOs through both SSP and the Emergency Food and Shelter Program (EFSP). Originally established in the late 1980s to assist homeless Americans, EFSP has since been co-opted as yet another vehicle for misdirecting funds under the auspices of migrant support. The magnitude of this largesse becomes even more staggering against backdrop figures from the House Judiciary Committee indicating that nearly eight million migrants have been admitted into U.S. borders under Biden and Harris’s watchful eyes — a figure that alarmingly eclipses twice the number of annual American births.
This profligate spending spree starkly illustrates how out-of-touch this administration is with everyday Americans' concerns. Instead of prioritizing citizens' welfare or addressing pressing domestic issues such as homelessness among veterans or crumbling infrastructure, Biden-Harris chooses to pour vast sums into sanctuaries harboring those who bypass legal routes for entry into our nation. It begs questioning where their loyalties lie when foreign nationals seemingly take precedence over Americans struggling within their own country.
As this narrative unfolds, it becomes increasingly evident that under Biden-Harris's governance, fiscal prudence is thrown to the wind. Their policies not only facilitate but actively encourage a system wherein taxpayer dollars become a perpetual lifeline for sanctuary cities and NGOs deeply embedded in what many see as an unsustainable migration model. This latest round of funding is but a symptom of a much larger ailment - a government that operates with blatant disregard for its citizens' best interests, instead favoring political optics over practical outcomes.
The implications are clear: while sanctuary cities and select organizations find themselves flush with federal funds, ordinary Americans are left bearing the brunt - financially supporting policies they may fundamentally disagree with while navigating an economy strained by excessive government spending. In essence, it's a stark reminder that under current leadership, priorities skew away from safeguarding American well-being towards accommodating external interests at taxpayers’ expense.
