While American Citizens face a baby formula crisis, the border is “awash” with the stuff
“America Last” is the theme to the Biden regime’s every action, and now that theme has devolved to “American Babies Last.”
Jen Psaki, without a trace of irony, said that it is “morally right” to help babies in need, when referring to providing mass amounts of baby formula to the children of illegal immigrants detained at the border. The same Jen Psaki who is rabidly pro-abortion. Babies in need, which apparently only applies if the babies belong to illegal immigrants. The irony is palpable, yet goes completely over her head.
President Trump made the following statement regarding the formula crisis:
“The Democrats are sending another $40 billion to Ukraine, yet America’s parents are struggling to even feed their children.”
“There is a massive formula shortage, but no one is talking about it—it is a national disgrace.”
“It is unthinkable that in the year 2022 American families are unable to get baby formulas for their children.”
Psaki says Border Patrol having pallets of baby formula while store shelves run dry is simply the federal government following the law to provide adequate food to illegal immigrants. CBP released a similar statement.

Brandon Judd of the Border Patrol Council just said they are awash with baby formula at the border for the use of illegal aliens

The situation as is: Stockpiles of baby formula exist at border detention centers. Those stockpiles, rather than being distributed to American citizens in dire need of formula, are being used to feed the children of illegal immigrants detained.
Why exactly don’t we just expel the immigrants, rather than feed them with the precious little formula we have available and distribute said formula to needy families here? Because that would be putting Americans First, and we can’t have that under this regime.
Texas Governor Greg Abbott issued the following statement via Twitter.
As parents face the nightmare of a nationwide formula shortage, the Biden Administration is happy to provide baby formula to illegal immigrants coming across the southern border.
Shameful.

Indeed, it is wrong to let babies starve–but that includes the only babies we have responsibility to. Not Ukrainian babies, not the babies of illegal immigrants, but the babies of US citizens.
