DHS Secretary Kristi Noem Announces Halt to All Funds to NGOs That 'Facilitate Illegal Immigration'
RedState ^ | January 29, 2025 | Jennifer Oliver O'Connell

Wednesday evening on Fox News' "The Will Cain Show," Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Kristi Noem announced that DHS will be suspending all grants to non-governmental organizations (NGOs).

Noem told Cain that DHS had:

stopped all grant funding that is being abused by NGOs to facilitate illegal immigration into this country. So, it's amazing to me the hundreds of millions of dollars that have spent by the federal government, that has been sent to NGOs to facilitate this invasion of our country. So, I've taken action to stop those funds, to reevaluate them, and to make sure that we're actually using the taxpayer dollars in a way that strengthens this country, that keeps us safe.

I think people are curious when we look at grants that are given out by federal agencies and how they're utilized, and that evaluation needs to be done. We're not spending another dime to help the destruction of this country.

No wonder so many religious “leaders” heads have been exploding recently.

Their charities just got hammered by the Trump administration.

Maybe they can stop grifting off the taxpayers and have their billionaire buddies fund them.

Good. So infuriating when churches back the illegals in the name of God.

Take a moment to consider how NGO's, Biden and many governors, congressmen, cabinet members etc. are all guilty of aiding and abetting illegals enterring the United States in violation of clear, federal law.

Here's an excerpt:

"Title 8, U.S.C. § 1324(a) defines several distinct offenses related to aliens. Subsection 1324(a)(1)(i)-(v) prohibits alien smuggling, domestic transportation of unauthorized aliens, concealing or harboring unauthorized aliens, encouraging or inducing unauthorized aliens to enter the United States, and engaging in a conspiracy or aiding and abetting any of the preceding acts. Subsection 1324(a)(2) prohibits bringing or attempting to bring unauthorized aliens to the United States in any manner whatsoever, even at a designated port of entry. Subsection 1324(a)(3).

Alien Smuggling -- Subsection 1324(a)(1)(A)(i) makes it an offense for any person who -- knowing that a person is an alien, to bring to or attempts to bring to the United States in any manner whatsoever such person at a place other than a designated port of entry or place other than as designated by the Commissioner, regardless of whether such alien has received prior official authorization to come to, enter, or reside in the United States and regardless of any future official action which may be taken with respect to such alien."

Lest see if this b**tch strikes down another Trump administration order again.

“A federal judge who could potentially strike down the suspension of grants to non-governmental organizations (NGOs) by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is U.S. District Judge Loren L. AliKhan. She serves in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia, which has jurisdiction over matters involving federal agencies like DHS,”

Since she’s out of her jurisdiction she needs to be ignored. Kind of like how biden did the SCOTUS.

Catholic charities is going to get a big hit on the bottom line. Not to mention all the liberal mega churches stoking the fire.
Lots of small non religious NGOs are going to be slammed. I’m waiting for the SPLC, immigration law branch with the ACLU to file the law suit.

I think government funding for all NGOs needs to be reviewed, but this is a good place to start.

Per AI

Catholic Charities receives a significant portion of its funding from the federal government. Since 2012, Catholic Charities and related organizations have collected over $1.6 billion from U.S. contracts and grants.

Approximately 65% of Catholic Charities USA’s annual budget comes from state and federal governments.

Apart from the sick Pope, the billions spent by CC to enable illegals is atrocious.
