Full title: Judicial Watch: Documents Reveal Obama HHS Paid Baptist Children and Family Services $182,129,786 for Four Months Housing of Illegal Alien Children

Taxpayer funds covered free laptops, big screen TVs, $75 per child per day for food, pregnancy tests, and “multicultural crayons”

(Washington, DC) – Judicial Watch announced today that on September 9, 2014, it received documents from the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) revealing that the Obama administration paid Baptist Children and Family Services (BCFS) $182,129,786 to provide “basic shelter care” to 2,400 “unaccompanied alien children” (UAC) for four months in 2014. The BCFS budget included charges for $104,215,608 for UACs at Fort Sill, Oklahoma, and an additional $77,914,178 for UACs at Lackland Air Force Base in San Antonio, Texas.

The start date of BCFS’s contract was October 1, 2013, but it was signed on June 27, 2014. The project’s end date of September 30, 2016, suggests that the Obama administration anticipates that the “surge” will continue until near the end of his presidency.

According to the documents obtained by Judicial Watch, the cost to the American taxpayer was $86,846.34 per illegal alien child at Ft. Sill, for a total to $104,215,608 for 1,200 UACs from June 12 to October 18. The bill also included $2,648,800 in compensation for 30 members of the BCFS “Incident Management Team” (IMT), for a total to $88,293 per IMT member for the four-month period.

The $77,914,178 to care for 1,200 children at Lackland AFB amounted to a cost to the taxpayer of $64,928 per illegal alien child from May 18 to September 18. The Lackland bill included $20,000 for a “cable television screen/projector set up” and 20 shower stalls at $1,000 each.

Judicial Watch obtained the documents in response to an August 1, 2014, Freedom of Information Act request seeking BCFS applications for funding, correspondence between the HHS Administration for Children and Families (ACF) and BCFS, and correspondence within ACF relating to BCFS. The records obtained by Judicial Watch from the HHS Administration for Children and Families include the “Budget Information and Project Narrative portions of the BCFS applications funded in calendar 2014” for both the Ft. Sill and the Lackland AFB facilities.

The BCFS application for the Ft. Sill facility includes the following expenses:

The BCFS application for the Lackland AFB facility includes the following in addition to many of the above:

“It is outrageous that the Obama administration spent nearly $200 million of taxpayer funds to provide illegal alien children with the types of extravagant high-tech equipment and lavish benefits many American families cannot even afford for their own children,” said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. “And very few American workers are bringing home the $80,000 the Obama administration pays the BCFS’s Incident Management Team for just four months’ work. Obama’s lawlessness resulted in an illegal alien ‘surge‘ that has cost taxpayers tens of millions of dollars in 2014. Based on his new lawless amnesty plans, we can expect hundreds of millions more in taxpayer costs for the resulting wave of illegal aliens trying to take advantage of Obama’s illegal nullification of our nation’s immigration laws.”

Why did it cost $89,000 per illegal alian in OK while costing $65,000 in TX?
And why did it cost more than $1000 for any of them? This is theft of public funds by the Baptists. Shame on them.

$546 Million per annum on illegal aliens - but there’s no money to build the fence required by law?

UNACCEPTABLE

It’s those outrageously expensive multi cultural crayons that git ‘em every time.

So! THIS IS how much respect our labors, our monies confiscated get from Obama’s government. Reduce our defense, and use the money to bribe the neighbors kids to vote for them.

Back in June 28, 2014, Dallas County Judge Clay Jenkins announced he wanted Dallas County to house minor border jumpers.

Jenkins said he reached out to federal officials after his 8-year-old daughter expressed concern about the children flooding across the border. She even offered the Jenkins family’s Highland Park home, saying it would be fun to play with other little girls. “We cannot turn our backs on the children that are already here,” Jenkins said...."

=================================================

The media swooned----Jenkins's smirking face was soon on TV, bragging that "the faith community" was coming to the rescue of invaders".......(for a price).

I guess Jenkins didn't mind that his family would house border jumpers....who are carriers of TB, Ebola, Chikungunya, Dengue fever, Norovirus. Hantavirus, Swine flu, Varicella. Variola, E-coli.......and childhood diseases America stamped out years ago.

Nor did Jenkins mind that Obama's henchman over at USCIS (a DHS agency) is rubber stamping contagion, contamination, and disease from the jumpers' backward countries----for-all approvals of border jumpers from 144 countries (even countries struck w/ Ebola).

==========================================

Texas Baptist Men is one group in a coalition called Volunteer Organizations Active in Disaster. VOAD Vice President Nikki Beneke said churches, and other social organizations, have expressed interest in helping the immigrant children in Dallas County. “And I think it’s an opportunity for our community to come together to assist these children to have a better life,” Beneke said.

Baptist Child and Family Services (BCFS), received more than $280 million this year to house illegal immigrant children, according to government records.

Time magazine reported in August that the Baptist organization deployed 1,400 tax-paid employees, this year alone, to staff its tax-paid shelters. More than 95 per cent of Baptist Child and Family Services' 2012 budget came from the federal government, according to its tax records.

But even members of Congress can't get answers about the arrangement it has with HHS. Baptist Child and Family Services tax-paid staff has been vicious in obscuring its activities from public view:

<><> Baptist Child and Family Services tax-paid personnel prohibited a Member of Congress from entering the taxpayer-funded detention center at Fort Sill, OK;

<><> prevented a Los Angeles Times reporter from interviewing detainees, caseworkers, and other staff;

<><> Baptist Child and Family Services tax-paid personnel physically pushed a local TV reporter from the entrance of a facility; and,

<><> Baptist Child and Family Services attempted to block the reporter’s camera crew from recording across the street from the facility.'

==========================================

TALKING POINTS The bulk of the HHS tax dollars----through its 'unaccompanied alien children' program----are going to: (1) the super-secret Baptist Child and Family Services Emergency Management Division (BCFS-EMD), and, (2) SW Key programs.

<><> Southwest Key Programs Inc got $122,000,000+

<><> Baptist Child and Family Services Emergency Management Division (BCFS-EMD) $270,000,000+

==================================================

The "tolerant and compassionate" Baptist Child and Family Services personnel are royally compensated w/ tax dollars for their "humanitarian" efforts.

Baptist Child and Family Services Treasurer Claudia Oliveira paid $182,909 + $43,429 bonus.

Executive Directors

Asennet Segura paid $181,895 + $68,370 + $62,510 bonuses,

Kari Tatro ($189,516 + $50,471 + $26,787)

Terri Hipps ($176,267 + $26,00)

Other Baptist Child and Family Services Directors include:

Sonya Thompson ($169,018 + $12,436),

Denise Grimm ($122,206 + $11,593),

Mario Guerra ($167,419 + 19,248)

Jon Bodie ($134,602 + $16,344).

There are some excellent Baptist Children’s Homes around the country doing remarkable things for not only children but families. This outfit puts them all in question. Perhaps there will be a statement from the Baptists on this.

It looks like a scam to me. The BCFS website doesn't mention the word Babtist that I could find. Below is an excerpt from an article.

Excerpt:

We have received numerous requests to turn the eye of research into exactly what these organizations are. Specifically, one group that is continually in the media stories when they describe “faith-based” organizations and subsequent assistance to illegal aliens, or unaccompanied alien children, Baptist Child and Family Services or BCFS.

Soccer Balls, Sanctimony and A Billion Dollar Group Called “Baptist Child and Family Services”…

It is now clear why “baptist family services” is in favor of “immigration reform.”

PREVIOUSLY DOCUMENTED GOVT FRAUD PRACTICES:

<><> Principles using credit cards. Reversing credit card write-offs is a common scam, initially writing off credit debt then cooking the books by reversing the write-off for annual reports. The debt could also be carried on the books as a fraudulent unbilled disbursement "receivable."

<><> Backdating checks to hide the date on which govt checks were received---in order to minimize the risk that auditors would discover fraudulent accounting practices.

<><> Reclassifying expenses on financial statements to seemingly reduce expenses. This change in treatment is usually not disclosed to auditors or on official financial statements.

<><> Budgetary allocations might describe certain fraudulent accounting adjustments pursued as part of a sub rosa scheme; engaging in fraudulent conduct to mislead WRT tax revenue, expenses, or payments; perhaps structuring transactions as "loan repayments" to falsify revenue.

<><> Ieveraging of tax dollars to secure personal bank loans that benefit principles? Perhaps classifying loan repayments as "revenue" on official documents?

All of these activities compel criminal penalties for the crimes of grand larceny, schemes to defraud, govt fraud, and falsifying official records.

===================================================

ITEM--Shockingly, the Baptist Child and Family Services planned to buy resort property to house illegals for $3.8 million tax dollars ...... but news reports say Boobamba was forking over $50 million tax dollars (that we know of). Can you say money-laundering?

UPDATE the resort plan was dumped under the glare of public scrutiny.

================================================

ACTION--CONTACT FBI TIPS PAGE WEB SITE---YOU MAY REMAIN ANONYMOUS---https://tips.fbi.gov

<><> Taxpayers demand BCFS's official filings, phone records, emails, snail mail copies, hard drives, bank accounts, checking accounts, credit cards, debit cards, wire transfers, social media contacts, and the like...be subpoeaned.

<><> TAXPAYERS demand to know who these people are communicating with, and who is directing their activities.

<><> Taxpayers demand to know if tax-funded groups, are consorting with violent organizations advocating the overthrow of the US govt.

Government Per Diem (meals) rate in the D.C. area is $71 per day; so it doesn't seem too far-fetched to believe that's the rate they paid for those poor little buggers from across the border...
