After the Wall Street Journal reported that the Biden administration plans to make payments of $450,000 to illegal immigrants who were separated from a family member at the border, President Biden called the story “garbage” and said “that’s not gonna happen”:

Just a couple of days later, Biden got angry after a reporter noted that yes, it is going to happen:

There’s a reason the Biden White House didn’t want anybody to find out about their plans to compensate people who entered the country illegally:
BREAKING: A new Trafalgar group poll shows two-thirds of Americans oppose paying $450,000 to illegal immigrants.

Most accurate pollster of last five years finds majority of Americans want southern border closed, and 67% oppose payoffs to illegals (honestly disappointed its not higher). https://t.co/MlKu4jPZJy

Just when you thought the Biden/Harris approval ratings couldn’t get worse, that’s likely to be a major contributor.
I’d like to know who the 1/3 is??

The other 1/3 make more than $450,000 a year I suppose. Where can I sign up to break laws and get 450?#BeFairToRealAmericans

Senator Tom Cotton made this maddening comparison last week:

But the Biden administration is planning to send $450,000 to migrants who crossed our border illegally and were deported. pic.twitter.com/t09G52hNcm
