No, Biden, Harris didn't spend hurricane relief FEMA funds on immigrants | Fact check

The claim: Biden administration spent FEMA hurricane relief money on ‘illegals’​

An Oct. 2 Facebook post (direct link, archive link) claims President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris redirected funds meant for disaster relief.

“Kamala and Biden spent the (Federal Emergency Management Agency) emergency money on housing and caring for illegals. They now are not prepared for the current hurricane damage,” the post's text states.

Similar versions of the claim were amplified by former President Donald Trump, billionaire Elon Musk and Ohio Rep. Jim Jordan.

False​

FEMA and a White House spokesperson both said the claim is false. It conflates the agency's disaster relief fund with a separate program that helps homeless people. The money provided by Congress for the disaster relief fund must be used for that purpose, and any other use is against the law.

Does it make a difference?

All MAGA has to do is hear something they want to believe true and it becomes a fact in their world which is only reinforced thru their media.

They support a candidate for President who infamously makes false statements with zero proof and they believe him regardless, in fact, it is all part of his schtick, and he knows fully they will swallow whatever he shovels
