We have homeless children living under bridges or worse, and where is Biden’s focus?
1. Meddling in foreign affairs and sending obscene amounts of money where it does not belong.
2. Once again emasculating our borders and letting in folks who will be making use of massive amounts of financial aid.
I guess foreigners are far more important to our government than homeless American youth are. They’re about as worthless to our government as their vote as they most probably don’t vote, having more pressing issues to attend to, such as surviving.
Homeless teen reunited with dog he surrendered to MS animal shelter

SENATOBIA, Miss. (WREG)— A homeless teen who surrendered his dog to a Mississippi animal shelter because he couldn’t care for her has been reunited with his dog.
WREG is not identifying the 17-year-old, who was reunited with his puppy Jada, Friday morning.
Kris Robinson, Interim Shelter Director at the Senatobia-Tate County Animal Shelter, says the teen came to the shelter earlier in the week and asked if he could leave Jada there.
Robinson says he told her he couldn’t take care of Jada anymore and that he was living under a bridge. The 17-year-old said he’d left Jada in a tent while he looked for work, but she had broken out.
The teen told Robinson he didn’t even have a tent anymore and couldn’t feed the dog.
“We’re a shelter, so we’re concerned about the dog, but ultimately we were concerned about him and him getting off the street and getting some help,” Robinson said.
Robinson took Jada in even though the shelter is full but hated to the see the young man fade back into the isolation of homelessness.
“He filled out a surrender form with a little bit of information about himself, and we were able to pass that along to some folks who could help him,” Robinson said.
He left Jada there with a bag of dog food.
Though it has not been revealed where the teen was living or what caused him to leave home, late Thursday evening, the Senatobia Police Department announced officers had found the teen with the help of several community members.
“We thank everyone that assisted the Senatobia Police Department with helping us locate this young man safely,” Senatobia’s Police Chief Richard Chandler said in an email.
Friday morning, the teen was reunited with Jada at the shelter.
We’re told the teenager has a place to stay and was scheduled to reclaim Jada and take her their new home Friday.
“A local family offered their home and said he could stay with them for a while while he gets his life back on track,” Robinson said.
The shelter is flooded with calls from people wanting to donate to Jada and her owner. There are no designated homeless shelters in Senatobia, but many local churches take up the slack by offering limited assistance.
We’re told the First United Methodist Church in Senatobia is taking donations to help the family that will be caring for the teenager and Jada. The church’s phone number is 662-562-5214. So if you want to help this kid, give the church a call.

The president doesn't supply aid to the homeless. That job goes to the State and/or the county. If you have complaints about the homeless please do not wine to the president who doesn't have control over rent or the food on the table. You have to talk to State Reps or go to town hall meetings and ta... View More
