From the article in the Tweet:
The Biden administration is in talks to offer immigrant families that were separated during the Trump administration around $450,000 a person in compensation, according to people familiar with the matter, as several agencies work to resolve lawsuits filed on behalf of parents and children who say the government subjected them to lasting psychological trauma.
The U.S. Departments of Justice, Homeland Security, and Health and Human Services are considering payments that could amount to close to $1 million a family, though the final numbers could shift, the people familiar with the matter said. Most of the families that crossed the border illegally from Mexico to seek asylum in the U.S. included one parent and one child, the people said. Many families would likely get smaller payouts, depending on their circumstances, the people said.
The American Civil Liberties Union, which represents families in one of the lawsuits, has identified about 5,500 children separated at the border over the course of the Trump administration, citing figures provided to it by the government. The number of families eligible under the potential settlement is expected to be smaller, the people said, as government officials aren’t sure how many will come forward. Around 940 claims have so far been filed by the families, the people said.
The total potential payout could be $1 billion or more.
It’s going to be a lot more than 940 claims.
Once that first check clears how many thousands and millions of people will show up demanding money for the abuse they claim happened at the hands of the US Government?
The reality is these people tried to enter the United States illegally. The US government enforced its laws. The people coming knew what the consequences were and did it anyway.
Now, in the middle of the slowest economic growth and highest inflation crisis America has seen in… possibly since the Great Depression, in which Americans are suffering, the plan is to give away 12.8 times the medan American salary per person to illegals.
The absolute “fuck you Mr and Mrs American, I hate you and want to insult you while I ruin you” from this cannot be understated.
