There were several red flags surrounding that contract from the get-go. First, as an erstwhile federal government contract lawyer, I can assure you that “sole-source contracts” — which are awarded to a specific contractor without an open competitive bidding process — require “adequate justification”. You may not view the federal government as a good steward of your money, but its rules are strict.

I'd bet dollars to donuts that the no-bid contract was awarded to someone with dem connections.

He wasted 13.6 billion on Ukraine which is most likely in offshore bank accounts. Not accountable for the money at all. Any money invested in illegal aliens is an investment because they will take low-wage jobs and work hard doing jobs lazy Americans will not do because they collect welfare used for drug money. We need immigrants legal or illegal for our economy. Just over 40 percent of SNAP recipients are white. Another 25.7 percent are black, 10.3 percent are Hispanic, 2.1 percent are Asian
19.8 million immigrants work in essential critical infrastructure. Immigrants are working to keep Americans safe, healthy, and poised for economic recovery

What did Trump do with the 5,500 children he separated from their families.
The U.S. government’s treatment of asylum seekers through its policy of family separation constitutes cruel, inhuman, and degrading treatment and, in all cases evaluated by PHR experts, constitutes torture. Many children and families remain separated with no plan for reunification.

Cost Of Trump Administration’s Migrant Family Separation Policy Hits $80 Million And Continues To Climb​

The total amount spent so far breaks down to about $30,000 per child, which went toward shelter, food, education, medical needs and more. Meanwhile, the number of unaccompanied immigrant kids held in Texas shelters reached a new high in November.

The New York Times: The Price Tag Of Migrant Family Separation: $80 Million And RisingThe federal government has spent $80 million to care for and reunite migrant children who were separated from their parents by immigration authorities, a figure that continues to grow months after the policy ended because more than 140 children are still in custody. The first official price tag on family separations — which ended abruptly in June in the face of widespread public opposition — comes to about $30,000 per child. That data, along with new details on the children who remain mired in the policy’s lingering effects, were handed over last week by the Health and Human Services Department to members of Congress, who shared the report with The New York Times.

The 5500 children that trump separated did not disappear when Biden took office. Biden is taking care of them and is fixing the things that trump broke.
