The grant is only available to people 'who are not American citizens'

Theo Wold, a former assistant to Donald Trump, has lashed out at a controversial policy in Oregon that sees asylum seekers offered $30,000 as support to buy houses.

The grant, which is offered by the Hacienda Community Development Corporation through its Casimo A Case program, is only available to people “who are not American citizens”.


Speaking on GBN America, Wold hit out at the idea amid calls to drastically slash the number of people entering the country illegally.

‘“There’s a supply problem that is the aftershock of the Covid lockdowns and the supply chain problems that affected most of the Western world”, he said.

“There’s also a demand problem. When you’re importing close to 15 million people in the course of two years, you’re going to see a skyrocketing sort of interest in home ownership and the prices in the market.

“Places like Portland, Seattle, San Francisco, Los Angeles, they are all facing an enormous housing crisis. Into this breach steps in a non-profit organisation that specifically favours illegal aliens.

“And then you have a proposal from Gavin Newsom in California that would do the same - but through state power.

“Here’s the main takeaway. All of this is designed, as is the case in the United Kingdom, as is the case in a lot of the Nordic countries, to eliminate the distinction between citizens and foreign nations who arrive by boat, by plan, by car.

“That is what is going on. To give the advantages for home ownership, for health care, for education, to illegal aliens. This is the next step of this entire plan.

“We’ve seen it in places like Denver and Colorado, where the liberal mayor of Denver has been giving new housing construction to illegal aliens, free health care and inundated the public schools with illegal alien children.”

Immigration is a hot topic in America and is set to play a key role in November’s election.

Donald Trump has been quick to attack Kamala Harris on the issue as record numbers of migrants make their away across the southern border.

Since Biden took office, US Customs and Border Protection recorded 8.1 million people have crossed over the border.

A vast majority of them have been transported to sanctuary cities like New York, Portland and Chicago.
