So compounding the problem is a solution??
Knowingly funding a corrupt government is somehow going to stop them from being corrupt ??
How stupid can these people be?? I know, I know; it's not stupidity, it's their plan.....

Honduras, Guatemala, and El Salvador ? Hell just make them all states and save some people from a long walk. Cheaper too. Belize, Costa Rica, and Mexico will be lining up. Then they'll all vote democrat and the Republic of Texas can kick their butts again.

Well, it's only $279 Million on its way to Central America. Hunter has to collect his 10% for the Big Guy.
And once all the folks down there get their cut, there will be about $37.80 left to work on the root causes of migration. Bank deposits expected to increase in Switzerland, border communities, Houston, Dallas, Chicago, Miami, Los Angeles, and New York.

Oh, sure. We can send hundreds of millions to corrupt Central American countries and communist dictatorships, while they return the favor by sending hundreds of thousands of illiterate, poor, uneducated, immigrants here to enter the country illegally, and collect benefits to send back home and steal our wealth, while flooding our country with drugs, slave prostitutes, and crime.
But the stinking Democrats couldn't appropriate a single dime for Trump's BORDER WALL, even though they were obliged to do so by a long enacted statute

So Harris and Biden are back to the old playbook: Give your money, my money, and future generations' money to their buddies in corrupt governments and organizations. Don't tell me their pals aren't getting a cut. That's how it works, folks. "And the horse she rode in on!"

Trump had this about 95% under control, and Traitor Joe and the Cali Whore INTENTIONALLY opened the borders and have let in hundreds of thousands of ILLEGAL ALIENS. Nary a migrant among them.

So where's the incentive to keep them from sending more people north? What's the money suppose to do, except to keep doing what they are doing.

If a corrupt government is sending people up here and we send money to that corrupt government how smart is that move.? They will just split the money between them and keep sending the people here.
What does Cameltoe and Joe use for brains.
Don't answer that I already know, and it stinks.

Where does that money go once it reaches Central America? How do you think the dictator of Venezuela became a billionaire? They put it in their pockets.

So we're paying corrupt Central American governments for flooding our borders? Ummmm....that seems backwards to me. Good to know Ms. Harris has a handle on what's happening and isn't in over her head.

How naive. All you are doing is buying more illegal aliens. One could charge this administration with dealing in human beings. Maybe we are a systemic racist country with the government operating a new form of slave trading.

Biden can’t buy out the corrupt countries South of the borderline. Biden says that he has to figure out why the “migrants” (illegal aliens) are coming to the USA first before the problem can be fixed, duh! So Biden has decided to throw another $310 million dollars at that problem by sending that money to Central America.
Anyone who has been paying attention has known for decades why illegal aliens unlawfully enter the USA. For the most part they come to take American jobs and send as much money as possible back to their families in their home countries, with a percentage coming to engage in all sorts of criminal, smuggling of illicit narcotics, and violent gang activities. As long as those illegal aliens are successful in doing all that, the corrupt governments of Central America and Mexico will support their citizens massively unlawfully entering the USA. Mexico even has a clause in their federal constitution prohibiting the Mexican government from stopping Mexicans from leaving Mexico anywhere along the borderline. The annual remittances by illegal alien Mexicans back to Mexico is estimated to be over 40 billion dollars a year. So you can see that there is no way to stop mass uncontrolled illegal immigration from South of the borderline by sending millions of dollars in cash to the corrupt governments of the sending countries. The only way to stop illegal immigration from South of the borderline is by continuing to build an effective borderline barrier as Trump was doing all along the borderline. The Democrats know that, but that common sense solution does not jive with the Democrat plan to flood the USA with as many illegal aliens as possible, legalize them through constant amnesties, and transform them into leftist and liberal Democrat voters as soon as possible.

Many years ago, when I first moved to Texas, I remember a gentleman who was a Mexican citizen telling me of the graft and corruption in Mexico (and I would expect in most of Central and South America). He'd tell me of the police chief in Mexico City whose house had solid granite columns so large you couldn't wrap your arms around them. How the drug smuggler with 10 kilos of heroin only got charged with 2 kilos of heroin because that's all that was left by the time of the trial. How the lower level folks on the take would deposit their money in the Rio Grande Valley banks, the next folks up the line in San Antonio, and the big guys in Chicago and New York so they wouldn't run into each other at the bank.
As he said, Mexico is a wealthy country. Look at how much is stolen there every day!

So what will those governments use the money for? Graft and transportation for the illegals.

The creep in the WH, who never, ever voted for the correct choice for this country, now unleashes more of his non existing brain cells. After 9/11 this low life wanted to send to Saudi Arabia $23billions. He was 'worried'' that the Saudis might think we are holding the attack on US soil against them. This dollar amount would show them we are not holding anything against them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Between him and the Kamel ho' there exists not one single solitary brain cell that is functioning!

So a corrupt government that receives millions of dollars is going to do what with the money? Is this administration so stupid that they actually believe the “corrupt” government will do anything to help the citizens? Idiots. Biden’s will definitely expect something in return, and no citizen will ever see it.

And Joe isn’t motivating Central Americans to make the trip to the USA. Ha! By the way, no one has told us where these poor Central Americans get their money to pay the cartel. Where is the thousands coming from to pay for border crossing?
