‘Cash in Envelopes’: How the US and UN Are Funding the Border Crisis https://link.theepochtimes.com/mkt_...the-border-crisis-5581125?utm_source=andshare
The United States is bankrolling its own “invasion” by funding the United Nations and its partners, which, in turn, give hundreds of millions of dollars in cash and aid to migrants who eventually cross the U.S. southern border illegally.
That expansion has been fueled by more than $1B in funding from the US government to the UN and other agencies assisting migrants, according to a government funding database.
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.
“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.
While the U.N. has aided migrants for decades, the scope of its operation has dramatically expanded as the number of illegal immigrants—from at least 160 countries—into the United States has surged.
