President Biden's Campaign Reveals 2 Million Cash On Hand

U.S. President Joe Biden's campaign event in Atlanta

President Biden recently embarked on a campaign trail through New Hampshire and Boston, where his campaign disclosed having $192 million in cash reserves. Biden's campaign manager criticized Team Trump for allegedly burning through cash and lacking a robust campaign strategy. Surprisingly, the Trump campaign outpaced Biden's fundraising efforts in April, raising $76.2 million compared to Biden's $51 million.

While in Boston, President Biden may not be addressing the migrant crisis, which has seen the city allocate $932 million for migrant services this year. The Beachmont Veterans of Foreign Wars 6712, a veterans housing facility, has been repurposed as a migrant shelter, housing over 100 migrant families, a move that has stirred discontent among veterans who previously resided there.

The veterans, many of whom are elderly or disabled, have expressed frustration over the shift in facility usage. The decision to repurpose the veterans' housing facility has sparked debates and concerns within the veteran community, highlighting the impact of border policies on local communities.

Various locations in and around Boston have been affected by the migrant crisis, such as the relocation of residents from a community center in Roxbury to an armory in Lexington, disrupting community activities. Additionally, a four-star hotel in Everett accommodated over 300 migrant families, providing them with amenities like free Uber rides and specialty cuisine, funded by taxpayer dollars.

The significant budget allocation towards migrant services, amounting to a billion dollars this year, has raised questions about the financial burden on taxpayers. The transformation of a veterans' facility into a migrant shelter underscores the complex challenges posed by the migrant crisis in Boston and its repercussions on local communities.
