Madison Diverted $700K In Taxpayer Covid Relief To Illegal Aliens

 A Wisconsin lawmaker is demanding answers from the city of Madison in the wake of a report showing the leftist enclave doled out hundreds of thousands of dollars in federal Covid relief funds to illegal immigrants.

"The decision to use pandemic relief money to assist illegal immigrants at the expense of Wisconsinites reveals the out of touch priorities of Madison politicians," Republican state Sen. Duey Stroebel said Thursday in a statement.

All told, the city of Madison received more than $42 million in State and Local Fiscal Relief Fund money as part of its ARPA share.

As Fox News reported in February, several Democrat-led states handed out more than a half billion dollars of federally funded Covid relief to illegal immigrants.

U.S. Rep. Brad Wenstrup, chairman of the Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic, said in August that the $350 billion State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds program, "Like many other Covid relief programs - possessed very few common-sense restrictions that could have protected the American taxpayer." The Ohio Republican noted reports of the funds being used to replace golf course irrigation systems, boost prize winnings for horse racing competitors, and to create a "Racial equity" commission in Providence, Rhode Island.

Politicians in leftist-led cities and states that are begging for federal funds to clean up President Joe Biden's border mess are boasting about the Covid relief money they used to subsidize illegal immigration.

"The COVID-19 Immigrant Relief Fund was highly publicized and repeatedly funded by the Legislature," Mike Faulk, a spokesman for liberal Washington Gov. Jay Inslee, told Fox News.

Fauci Files Reveal Pfizer Helped Biden Rig 2020 Election

 Pfizer secretly colluded with Joe Biden's team to help him rig the 2020 election against Trump, according to new Fauci documents. In his new book, "On Call," Fauci admits that Albert Bourla, the CEO of Pfizer, called him the night after Biden was declared the winner of the election, to inform him of Pfizer's "Game-changing results" from the rigged mRNA trial. "On November 7, after the absentee ballots were counted, Joe Biden was declared the winner of the presidential election. It was the very next night that Albert Bourla, Pfizer's CEO, called me away from my neighbors' fire pit to inform me about the game-changing results from the Pfizer mRNA vaccine trial. I finally thought we had truly turned a corner in defeating this terrible disease." Today reports: In another interesting tidbit, Fauci discusses Trump's FDA Commissioner Stephen Hahn declaring that he would not go along with the Trump Administration's plan to roll out the vac...

Republicans Withdraw $1 Billion From BlackRock Due To Its ESG Policies

  Multiple U.S. states governed by Republicans are withdrawing state funds from BlackRock's management, as they disapprove of the ESG investment policies of the world's top asset manager, the Financial Times reports.

The Biden-Harris White House Has An Iranian Spy Leaking U.S. Intelligence In It

 The question is, how did classified intelligence from the United States, showing Israeli military movements that suggest broader action against Iran, get to Tehran? The answer raises uncomfortable questions for the Biden-Harris White House, which has opposed Israel every step of the way in responding to Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iran. Defying Biden got Israel the entire leadership of Hezbollah and Hamas, with the ultimate threat still looming: Iran and its nuclear program. Operations against Iran are being assessed also because Iran has started firing ballistic missiles into Israel, targeting civilian centers across the country. If Israel is close to launching a broader offensive against Iran, leaking U.S. intelligence would be a way to both try and deter Israel and give more warning to Iran. In 2012, similar allegations were made against the Obama administration when U.S. intelligence leaks showed that Israel was working towards using "Azerbaijan as a base of operations in the event...
