We actually have two major welfare stories today. The first is about the Boston bombers, who, it turns out were among those immigrants we’re always chided not to notice: They were on welfare. As good Americans we’re supposed to pretend that immigrants (I’m married to a legal immigrant, by the way, so no, Grover Norquist, I’m not “anti-immigrant”) don’t come here to get on welfare. Even though millions of immigrants do come here, legally or otherwise, and then get on welfare. Like the Tsarnaevs.
Marathon bombings mastermind Tamerlan Tsarnaev was living on taxpayer-funded state welfare benefits even as he was delving deep into the world of radical anti-American Islamism, the Herald has learned.
State officials confirmed last night that Tsarnaev, slain in a raging gun battle with police last Friday, was receiving benefits along with his wife, Katherine Russell Tsarnaev, and their 3-year-old daughter. The state’s Executive Office of Health and Human Services said those benefits ended in 2012 when the couple stopped meeting income eligibility limits. Russell Tsarnaev’s attorney has claimed Katherine — who had converted to Islam — was working up to 80 hours a week as a home health aide while Tsarnaev stayed at home.
And why was he a stay-at-home dad? Was Katherine working so he could pursue his dream of building bombs?
In addition, both of Tsarnaev’s parents received benefits, and accused brother bombers Dzhokhar and Tamerlan were recipients through their parents when they were younger, according to the state.
The news raises questions over whether Tsarnaev financed his radicalization on taxpayer money.
Ya don’t say.
This family came here seeking asylum. They ended up drawing welfare. Their sons ended up mass killers who hate us.....

NICE!!! lol....GRover, I think you’re going to be famous before this is over. I hope every adult in the USA knows who you are.
We immigrated here in 1952. At that time, you needed an American sponsor who would vouch for the fact that the sponsor would provide all financial/medical assistance should you need it for the first five years, you had to have the promise of work, you had to pass a physical for entrance, you needed to acquire a visa which was assigned to each country based on the size of that country’s present population in the U.S. (In 1952 Britain had the highest quota for entry as most residents were of British background, followed by Germany, and then on down...mostly European). Why can’t we have more restrictive immigration policies now? Also, forbid visas for student schooling across the board.
Surprise - we are paying to get screwed. They’ve made us into a country of whores.
Put pressure on your legislators, folks. Scream, Bi*ch, Holler, Shout! I sent off two E-mails today and had my family do the same.
Article; thread; post BUMP!
