3000 Illegal Children Cost Taxpayers $190 Million

by Chuck Ness

All joking aside, I find it interesting how we are told this is something generated by children and their parents, yet here is another story of how our own government is knee deep involved.

The subcontractors for this a Baptist Child and Family Services of San Antonio, whose CEO Kevin Dinnin met Obama a week ago and suddenly received a $190 million HHS grant (on top of prior grants of about $70 milliopn per year).

Most people are clueless that the majority of “non-profits” exist primarily to further leftist causes and dodge paying the taxes they wish to raise on everyone else that they deem the evil rich.

As more unaccompanied children from Central America are caught entering the country illegally, their plight is proving to be both a political and custodial headache for the Obama administration.

The steady flow of Central American children has forced HHS to open three temporary shelters that collectively house about 3,000 youngsters. They include a 1,100-bed facility at Joint Base San Antonio, a military facility in Texas; 600 beds at Naval Base Ventura County-Port Hueneme in California; and 1,200 beds at Fort Sill in Oklahoma.

The shelters have been authorized by the Department of Defense to stay open for four months, with most children staying an average of less than 35 days, according to HHS.

Most of the youngsters, however, are housed through a system of state-licensed, HHS-funded care providers across the country. These facilities provide a range of care options, including foster care, group homes and residential treatment centers. They also provide classroom education, health care, socialization services, vocational training, mental health services and access to legal services.

The children also must receive a list of free legal services in the area where they’re held and access to telephones, according to the law center. By law, the youngsters also must be advised that they can call a parent, a relative or an attorney or a legal assistance organization.  (Excerpt) Read more at star-telegram.com …

 

Take a look at the PDF of IRS form 990 for BCFS Health and Human Services (EIN 74-1260710) of San Antonio, Texas for the year 2012.

BCFS President Kevin Dinnin met with Obama on his most recent Texas visit at Lackland Air Base (where contractors were told to keep their mouths shut about what they saw), so this gang is tied directly the White House.

This whole plan has been in the works for over a year, now we are seeing the fruits of their labor..

So what are these so-called “faith leaders“. Well none of them are religion based organizations. None of them have churches. None of them have congregations or parishioners’. They are the heads of government funded non-profits. Remember ACORN? Same/Same. They are taxpayer funded corporations who exist almost exclusively on government grants. Despite the words "Baptist" and "Catholic", these are NOT religious "Faith based" groups. The name Baptist and Catholic is only to give the appearance of "religion" and add a dose of "charity" to the appearances.

We recently stumbled upon Mr. Kevin Dinnin when we were looking around for the primary recipients’ of HHS Grants and we came upon the 2012 tax filings of BCFS, or more accurately BCFS EMD where Kevin Dinnin is the principal officer and CEO. Paid at an annual salary of $477,799+. This one group alone makes ACORN seem small ball in comparison.

Two days before this meeting with President Obama, on 7/7/14 Mr. Dinnin was given a grant from Health and Human Services in the amount of $190,707,505. Yes, that is over $190 million dollars just before he met with the President. In 2014 alone BCFS has received almost $270 million.

Obama gives $190 Million to aid group and $50 Million is used for a

Largest Illegal Immigration Contractor BCFS Busted For Failing To Disclose Lobbying Activity….

A Texas-based organization that has been awarded hundreds of millions of dollars in federal contracts by the Obama administration to house illegal immigrant children not only lobbied the federal government, but also failed to properly disclose the activity.

After The Daily Caller inquired about its lobbying disclosures, BCFS, a San Antonio-based nonprofit, now says it may correct its tax forms to properly disclose its lobbying expenditures.

The Obama administration, through the Department of Health and Human Services, has tapped BCFS, formerly known as Baptist Child & Family Services, to provide security and other services to unaccompanied children at Lackland Air Force Base in San Antonio, and Ft. Sill army base near Lawton, Okla. BCFS has become the largest provider of such services for the child immigrants, who are part of a massive influx of mostly Central Americans that has put the Obama administration on its heels.

The administration expects 90,000 unaccompanied children to be apprehended at the U.S. border by the end of the fiscal year, more than triple last year’s total. HHS has given BCFS $280 million in federal contracts for its services so far this year. Nearly all of that — $270 million — has been given for services for unaccompanied children. HHS has given BCFS $458 million in total, according to the Tracking Accountability in Government Grants System. According to the Senate lobbying database, BCFS is the only organization that provides residential services directly for unaccompanied children that has spent money on lobbying.

Since 2006, BCFS has spent $210,000, according to a database maintained by the Center for Responsive Politics (read more at Daily Caller)

The more we learn, the more I wonder when impeachment proceedings will begin for Obama.
