HHS money to church entities long before waves of illegal immigrants
WDTPRS ^ | July 11, 2014 | Fr. John Zuhlsdorf

Posted on 07/12/2014 1:46:36 PM PDT by NYer

Via Pewsitter I learned of this from Liberty News. My emphases.

EXCLUSIVE: HHS Bankrolled Catholic and Baptist Church from 2010 to 2013 to Prepare for Obama’s 2014 Invasion!

A month or two ago news broke that Obama’s HHS was calling for private contractors to help transport illegal aliens throughout the interior United States. What made this already big news even bigger is the fact that the original call for proposals came out in January, long before the bulk of the illegal alien surge began.
The breaking news you’re about to read is ten times bigger, because the following proves the Obama administration was bankrolling America’s churches back in 2010. And the tens of millions were flowing in to prepare for the invasion currently underway.
The following is a small taste of what’s out there in grant records. This is just the tip of the iceberg, folks.
Between Dec 2010 and Nov 2013, the Catholic Charities Diocese of Galveston received $15,549,078 in federal grants from Health & Human Services for “Unaccompanied Alien Children Project” with a program description of “Refugee and Entry Assistance.”
Last year, the Catholic Charities Diocese of Fort Worth received $350,000 from Department of Homeland Security for “citizenship and education training” with a program description of “citizenship and immigration services.”
Between September 2010 and September 2013, the Catholic Charities of Dallas received $823,658 from the Department of Homeland Security for “Citizenship Education Training” for “refugee and entrant assistance.”
From Dec 2012 to January 2014, Baptist Child & Family Services received $62,111,126 in federal grants from Health & Human Services for “Unaccompanied Alien Children Program.”

All that money from the feds… from our taxes. What could go wrong?

Moderation queue is ON.

UPDATE:

I was sent a link to the Catholic Charities site of Galveston-Houston, which is fair and appropriate to post. HERE They give their criteria for assistance for deferred action in regard to illegal immigrants.

Wow! You are correct and WHAT does this have to do with HOMELAND SECURITY anyway????????????????????

I may be wrong, but I believe that Homeland Security and Health and Human Services are two distinct an unrelated agencies.

But it does underscore the fact that Obama's "fundamentally transformed America" has waaayyy too many agencies which exist for the sole purpose of spending as much of working taxpayer money as the populace will tolerate.

Thank you VERY MUCH for the post and ping!! I had no idea.

“..Because Catholic Charities receives almost two-thirds of its funding from government sources, the senator said, it “can do little that is uniquely Catholic. They have to do what the government dictates, which means they can’t talk about the Catholic part of the charity.”

As you probably know, I attend a Maronite (Eastern Catholic) Church. The See is in Lebanon and the parish is very aware and sensitive to the plight of christians in the Middle East. We had a RC visitor one Sunday who shared our concerns. He mentioned that Catholic Charities in Albany was supplying outreach by providing transportation, food and shelter. Elated to hear this, I asked for a local contact, suggesting that these immigrants would enjoy hearing the gospel in their own language. He said it wouldn't matter since Catholic Charities was assisting muslim immigrants!!! I was shocked. Your comment on this thread clarifies the situation. Again, thank you for repeating it for my benefit.

Actually, many of our fruits and veggies ARE coming from Mexico these days due to water problems in CA.

Good point. This produce passes through multiple hands before it arrives on supermarket shelves. Try convincing busy consumers on limited budgets to read the labels on each item before making their selections. It's a noble cause that will be ignored by most Americans.

Holy Cow.
Most of those "children" look like MS13 or whatever the Mexican criminal network is called. Remember, these gangs have contract killers as young as 12 or 13.

Anf you can be sure that they are will be forthcoming about their record.

You are correct, sir. I was so angry upon discovering when this taxpayer money was given out...that the two departments warped into one in my mind. It must have been the smoke from the fire I was breathing at the time... ;-o~~

We certainly will have a GREAT DEAL to clean up after this sophomoric ideologue leaves the White House.

With one stroke of his pen he can cause a pandemic. We are living in a dictatorship. I never dreamed it would happen. And just because lots of people still love Obama doesn’t mean it’s not a dictatorship. Not everyone hated Hitler.

Talked to a farmer in Sacramento Valley the other day, he said it is a joke among distributors of fruit and vegetables. They bring them in unlabeled, and depending on what area they are going to they put whatever labels are needed. Made me sick at my stomach that was always how I bought them, depending on where they were from. mrs easternsky

Nice. What does the acronym stand for?

Cannot make out what exactly you mean, referring you to the response from the poster, in #23

Another chapter in Obama’s war against America. As usual, the illegal alien dictator using our resources to destroy us.

It would be most helpful if we could regain even a modest control over our tax dollars.

Whether it is a big backfire depends on what you believe his ultimate goal is. If you believe it is to get the republicans to move on providing amnesty for illegals, it is a big backfire fail. But if his ultimate goal is to open the borders and allow as many illegal aliens, drugs, cartel gang members, red Chinese and jihadis into this country as possible, he has been tremendously successful.

Why do we have to go through TSA searches when all the illegals and arabs have to do is get on the plane with a piece of paper or walk across our southern border.

Since illegal immigrants are turning into so-called refugees - book mark this site.

Most refugees aren’t refugees - now there’s more!

I do. If it reads “Product of Mexico” I put it back down and move on.

they won’t be deported. But what they will do is bring the pig pen lifestyle from where they came from to where they end up.

The fact that those fruits & veggies aren't coming from CA has something to do with the "water issues," in CA but has much more to do with NAFTA.

Why do you think that so many of us screamed when we knew nothing at all good would be coming from South of the Border, when we were told that Mexican drivers and trucks wouldn't be a problem, right, wrong - thanks George W., we got them anyway didn't we?

Yes we did and while we're at it, we also got to send our fruits & veggies South at the same time.

Most of what you see at the grocery stores comes from some other place and that is a fact that has nothing to do with water shortage.

Stopping by Gilroy, CA every year for 20+ years, I still see plenty of produce and when asking where much of their produce would be ending up, was told it was going "off shore" as much was too expensive for Mexico!

So, as you can suspect by now, most of what we gain from our land is never consumed here, it's consumed elsewhere, so if you are looking to get some safe green onions to use in your salad from your local grocery store, you're out of luck, "water issues "or no, it's because the only "fresh" green onions in your neck of the woods would be coming from Mexico (I did get that clarified, peaches from Chile, green onions from Mexico! Not a one to be had from the U.S.

Ecoli be dammed!

“With one stroke of his pen he can cause a pandemic. We are living in a dictatorship. I never dreamed it would happen. And just because lots of people still love Obama doesn’t mean it’s not a dictatorship. Not everyone hated Hitler.”

This country has undergone a Bolshevik revolution, and most don’t even see it. In 1917 the communists gained control of a few cities (as communication as well as population centers); the Obamunists have done the same here with the cities and media. Obama is widely disliked, but that won’t be reported; only a small number of perpetual ethnic malcontents and some VERY wealthy liberals are supporting him. His war on religion, families, and the middle class is very real.

Bfl = bump for later. Bookmarks your place if you don’t have time to read, or helps you find the resource later. I am interested in your info about Catholic Charities. Makes sense that it is not the Catholic Church. Thanks.
