Dear Editor:
Tucker Carlson revealed on Sept. 24 that George Soros' Open Society established a new organization, "Welcome.US."
The organization is working with three former presidents and first ladies; the Obamas, Bushes and Clintons.
Soros, whose net worth is approximately $8.6 billion, has funded Black Lives Matter and radical prosecutors across the United States. The original focus is to resettle Afghan families, but with the assistance of 300 national organizations (to include Walmart, Facebook, Uber and Microsoft), will soon become a "national effort to welcome refugees from all over the globe."
The U.S. evacuated more than 120,000 Afghans prior to President Biden's Afghanistan pullout Aug. 31, and few, if any, were translators who helped America's efforts. The Afghans were supposed to go through Department of Homeland Security vetting. That use to take years, but many had little to no documentation when arriving in Germany and days later were transported to U.S. military bases.
Before U.S. entry, Afghans were supposed to have a health screening, but filled military hospitals to full capacity. One hospital reported an outbreak of measles.
Biden requested funding from Congress to settle 65,000 Afghans by the end of September and another 95,000 by September 2022. Simultaneously, less than 2,000 of the 15,000 migrants in Del Rio were transported back to Haiti, while the rest received "notices to appear" court dates several years off (not mandates) and then dispersed without COVID-19 testing around the country.
Of course, Americans are footing the bill for their transportation, hospitalizations - everything. Carlson indicated individual costs could be up to $50,000 for each illegal, but don't forget about the endless numbers entering through "chain migration!"
Currently, each Afghan evacuee is slated to receive $1,225 to help with rent, furniture and food and are also provided pocket money.
Biden has called on Congress to take immediate action to ensure that the recent arrivals have access to the same benefits as refugee asylees. This means cash and medical assistance through Medicaid, employment and job placement, English training, nutrition assistance and more that is decided by each state.
The Democrats' trillions in spending to fast-track citizenship and no ID voting will accomplish the "Complete Transformation of America" that Obama spoke of in 2009. America's generosity has been used by Soros and Marxist Democrats to destroy the greatest country on earth.
