President Donald Trump continues to make good on his long-standing pledge to discharge the swamps in Washington, DC now that he has fired several FEMA agents related to “bad” payments to hotels in New York City that house illegal foreigners. I'm doing it.
On Monday, Elon Musk and the government's Department of Efficiency filed a bomb claim last week that FEMA sent a staggering $59 million to a “luxury hotel in New York City” with the aim of living with illegal aliens. .
“These funds have been misused, dating back to the Biden administration, and the sanctuary city of New York has wasted billions… [on] Illegal immigrants, including criminal foreigners.
“Sending this money violates the law and is deeply dissenting to the president's executive order. The money is intended to help America with disaster relief and instead spends it on high-end hotels for illegals. It's been done! “Musk I wrote it.
Musk added that “clawback demand” will be made to get the money back.
In response, Afterte FEMA Director Cameron Hamilton assured masks and Americans that payments would be suspended and those who approved them would be “accountable.”
Now, just 24 hours after mask's first tweet, DHS is already x Four FEMA staff members It is associated with those payments.
“Four employees have been fired to avoid leadership and unilaterally make terrible hotel payments for New York City immigrants,” DHS said in a statement Tuesday to Fox News.
Republican New York State Rep. Mike Lawler argued that these firings were “long postponed.”
“These funds have been misappropriated and date back to the Biden administration, and New York City, a sanctuary city, has seen billions of dollars in taxpayer money, “B” to provide free housing, clothing, food and education. It's wasting the. , and health care for illegal immigrants, including criminal foreigners here,” Lawler told Fox News' Brian Kilmeade.
“Frankly, I praise DHS for taking action under President Trump's leadership to stop these payments because they encouraged cities like New York and the Sanctuary State New York.” he added. “And that has to stop.”
Lawler also said Democrat Gov. Kathy Hochul recently allocated “billions of state taxpayer money” to illegal foreigners.
“She is letting the hardworking New Yorker get away. [which] It speaks volumes of how New York is incompetent, corrupt, corrupt New York is under reckless leadership,” Lawler said.
FEMA did not respond to requests for comment from Blaze News.
NYC officials did not object to receiving federal funds for immigration costs, but they were in trouble with some details of Musk and Hamilton's claims.
For one thing, they said they had not received words about suspended funds, not to mention “demand for clawbacks.”
Additionally, Mayor Eric Adams' office confirmed that the city received two federal payments totaling $81 million last week, including a total of $89 million payments, of which the office said 19 million. He insisted that it was just dollars. Immigrant housing costs.
“We have already spent more than $7 billion on this crisis alone, and the previous administration has put $237 million in funding to help detain immigrants for our care and future services. “We entrusted the company with the company,” a statement from City Hall said.
“We continue to receive previously allocated refunds last week, and we will discuss this issue directly with federal officials.”
The media also appeared to be making excuses for the outrageous use of taxpayer dollars. ABC News She shrugged that the shelter rights laws would force the state to house illegal aliens. Outlets that failed to mention officials in that state and city I agree In the first place, we have effectively reaffirmed this in line with the shelter rights law. settlement Just like last year.
The outlet further said New York City “historically houses homeless people in hotels.”
The New York Post also claimed that “many of Musk's claims” about FEMA and NYC hotels and “did not immediately confirm” illegal foreigners. The post suggests that masks may envision FEMA shelter and service programs approved by Congress to reimmigration-related costs.
