No Border Security: Obama's $3.7 Billion Funding to Care, Feed, and Transport Diseased Illegal Aliens

Following up from earlier, "White House Wants $3.7 Billion for 'Border Crisis' Illegal Alien Slush Fund."

From Byron York, at the Washington Examiner, "Obama border funding: Most money to care, feed, transport illegal immigrants; little for deportations":

It's still a little unclear exactly how much money President Obama will request to deal with the crisis of thousands of families and unaccompanied children crossing the border into the United States illegally. But there are indications the vast majority of the funding will go to caring for the illegal immigrants who are already here -- feeding, housing, and transporting them to new American homes -- while a far smaller amount will go to sending some of those immigrants back to their home countries and preventing future immigrants from crossing into the U.S. illegally.

The president will ask for a large amount of money, perhaps as much as $2 billion, for the Department of Health and Human Services. Most of that will go to care for the more than 50,000 unaccompanied children who have illegally entered the United States in recent months. The law requires that border officials transfer those children to the care of HHS, which is then required to find homes for them, unite them with family members, provide legal assistance, and help them in a variety of other ways. So most of the HHS funding request, whatever it is, will go to the care of illegal immigrants who are already here.

Then there is the administration's request for more money for the Department of Homeland Security, which handles border enforcement. But it appears that most of that money will go to care for -- rather than deport -- the new illegal immigrants...
Well, the figure's closer to $4 billion now, and that funding is not going to reduce the diseased alien invasion one whit.
