Democrats care more about illegal alien housing than homeless veterans: Trump Redirects Illegal Immigrant Housing Funds to Launch National Center for Homeless Veterans President Donald Trump announced on Friday revealed plans on Friday to create the National Center for Warrior Independence at the West Los Angeles VA Campus. This new initiative is aimed at offering critical support and housing for homeless veterans. Trump also directed that money originally set aside for services and housing for illegal immigrants be reallocated to help America's veterans instead. The White House said its goal is to house up to 6,000 homeless veterans at the center by 2028. Los Angeles is home to around 3,000 homeless veterans, representing roughly 10 percent of the nation’s entire homeless veteran population — the highest number of any city in the United States.
5. (Obviously this is my estimate for number of posts until this is debunked and Trump supporters pretend the thread never existed. )
You made quite a jump to this. Let’s roll the tape on which Party has been touting “personal responsibility” and “pull yourself up from your own bootstraps”. another “tamp down the tone” post that has zero intellectual honestly. If you wanted to have an honest debate, you could have started with a critique of CalVet and what improvements can be made. Be Better.
I see trillions of dollars that our government spends and wonder why they don’t just fix the damn problem of taking care of Vets. You got that question from my post!? Some of you MAGA are a piece of work.
I’m not MAGA. I voted for Kamala. I keep an open mind on what a president does whether I voted for them or not. So my question is as asked from a neutral position. Do you or don’t you approve of this particular change. Pretty simple question.
Other than in the title and in one line in the text does the article mention that the funds were originally used to house illegal aliens and it doesn't actual provide a source for that statement. Since you posted please expand on that statement. Seems to me it's either a total fabrication or more likely a distortion. Considering that Trump has also requested funds for facilities to house undocumented immigrants awaiting deportation he is actually increasing funding to house illegal aliens.
Good move. Of course redirecting the funds from where he did is pure political spectacle. Could have redirected it from his military parade fund
Using the same logic: Trump takes money that feeds children and gives the money to defense contractors.
Yes. Nowhere does this say that they will do anything to address the underlying causes of homelessness (mental health), while at the same time making these people basically indentured servants to maintain their housing. Also, why we not also do the same thing for the millions of non-veteran homeless? Instead, you have Twink Johnson spouting off about how these people are all lazy and trying to take advantage of the system. So.....why the double standard?
