IN THE NEWS: NOW BIDEN DEFENDS MIGRANT COMPENSATION PAYMENTS HE CALLED "GARBAGE" JUST THREE DAYS AGO

Now Biden DEFENDS migrant compensation payments he called 'garbage' three days ago: Says families separated at border 'deserve some kind of compensation' but has 'no idea' if it will be as much as $450,000
  • Biden was speaking at a press conference touting the passage of the $1.2trillion bipartisan infrastructure bill when he was asked about the payments 
  • Biden was forceful in saying he would try to get payments to those families, criticizing former President Donald Trump's border policy. 
  • 'You deserve some kind of compensation, no matter what the circumstance,' he said of separated families. 'What that will be, I have no idea'
  • Last week it was revealed that officials from the Departments of Justice, Homeland Security, and Health and Human Services are considering payments 
  • The American Civil Liberties Union, which represents the separated families, has identified about 5,500 children separated from parents at the border 
  • The total potential payout could cost $1 billion or more

  2. You should always do your own due diligence. However, yes, this is now well established and verified in multiple sources. There was also this article from the NY Post to name just one:

    President Biden is “perfectly comfortable” with cash payouts to migrant families whose members were detained separately after illegally crossing the US-Mexico border, White House deputy press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said Thursday.

    The answer comes just a day after Biden labeled as “garbage” a report that his administration is considering $450,000-per-person payments.
