Must See: Biden Blasts $450K Migrant Payout, But Admin Walks Back His Comments

On Wednesday, President Joe Biden denied a report that his Administration gives $450,000 payments to migrants separated under Donald Trump's zero-tolerance policy. He publicly accused the media of putting out 'garbage.'

Speaking at a press conference on the authorization of COVID-19 vaccines for children aged 5 to 11, the 78-year-old Democrat was asked by Fox News whether the reported payments 'might incentivize more people to come over illegally.'

'If you guys keep sending that garbage out, yeah,' Biden retorted. 'But it's not true.'

Fox reporter Peter Doocy shot back, 'So this is a garbage report?'

Biden stood by his aggressive reaction.

'Yeah. $450,000 per person, is that what you're saying?' Biden retaliated. 'That's not going to happen.'

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis went after Biden on Tuesday, over reported plans to consider paying $450,000 per person - and up to $1million per family - to those separated at the southern border after crossing into the United States illegally.

The large sums have been put forward by the U.S. Justice Department in an effort to settle lawsuits with migrants who say the policy caused them lasting psychological damage.

Nevertheless, DeSantis, a Trump loyalist, has expressed he is 'very, very concerned' about the payments. He declared them to be a 'slap in the face' with Americans themselves already struggling to make ends meet as inflation boosts the cost of living.

'I mean, you think about it, Americans are getting more in their gas bills. They're getting more in their grocery bills,' DeSantis stated during a press conference. 'You've had all kinds of really bad policies throughout our country that have limited freedom.'

'And you're going to turn around for that and you're going to do $475,000 for an individual that came illegally to this country?' DeSantis decried.

'I've seen a lot in my day — I've seen a lot that's happened over the last nine or ten months that I didn't think I'd ever see — but this takes the cake,' the governor said in a furious statement. 'If that is done, that is going to be a slap in the face to every American who works hard and plays by the rules,' he proceeded.

'And it will especially a slap in the face to people that have immigrated legally to this country. That should not be allowed to stand. It's wrong, and whatever we can do in Florida to fight back against it, we will do.'

Roughly 5,500 children were taken from their parents under President Donald Trump's 'zero tolerance' policy, under which parents were separated from their children to face criminal prosecution for crossing the border illegally, according to court filings in a federal case in San Diego.

Officials from the Departments of Justice, Homeland Security, and Health and Human Services are now considering the payments that could come to a total close to $1 million for two people within the same family.

The total potential payout could cost $1 billion or more.
