    “We’re actually funding our own border crisis,” Todd Bensman, senior national security fellow at the Center for Immigration Studies, a “pro-immigrant, low-immigration” think tank, told The Epoch Times.

    “And it’s provided by, ultimately, the United States taxpayer.”

    Until President Joe Biden took office, the United States had obligated about a half-billion dollars per year to the International Organization for Migration (IOM), the U.N.’s migration arm.

    But that funding has skyrocketed under the Biden administration to nearly $1.3 billion in 2023—more than double what it had been under the Trump administration, according to USASpending.gov.

    The government spending database shows that most of the money comes from the State Department and the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID).

    With the border crisis becoming the No. 1 issue in the 2024 presidential race, Republicans on Capitol Hill have already blocked a bipartisan border bill that many see as doing more harm than good in stopping illegal immigration.
    They argue that President Biden already has the power to stop the border crisis that he created.

    With attention squarely on the border, House Republicans used the opportunity to reintroduce a bill that would eliminate U.N. migrant funding.

    H.R. 6166, the Tax Dollars for the U.N.’s Immigration Invasion Act, would prohibit contributions to the IOM and the U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees, as well as the U.N. Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East.

    The bill also requires the Government Accountability Office to conduct an audit of all federal funding previously appropriated to U.N. agencies that have financed the migrant crisis to force repayment of that funding to the U.S. Treasury.

    U.N. agencies are “financing the ongoing U.S. border crisis,” Rep. Lance Gooden (R-Texas) said in a Jan. 26 statement.

    “The United Nations is using our own tax dollars against us, and U.S. policymakers can no longer stand by while elites in the U.N. and Davos actively finance an invasion of our sovereign territory.

    “It’s time to say enough and cut off funding to these corrupt globalist institutions until respect for our territorial integrity and appreciation for our generosity is restored.”

    So how long will the masses tolerate working within the laws to fix this mess without major success? You can extend this question to having a government that works in the shadows and in the open and defy the wishes of those they govern.

    City machines are already uncomfortable with push back from their subjects about all the benefits illegals are getting that they think they should be receiving. What's going to happen when illegals become targets for groups like BLM and leadership like Al Sharpton? Machines will be stuck with choosing one side or the other, wonder which one they will go with, old dependable, or new wave cash generators.
