Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem said on Wednesday that she “clawed back” the full payment made by FEMA for hotels to house migrants in New York City, days after the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) announced the discovery of a $59 million payment made last week.
“I have clawed back the full payment that FEMA deep state activists unilaterally gave to NYC migrant hotels,” Noem announced on Wednesday, noting that FEMA was actively funding the Roosevelt Hotel “that serves as a Tren de Aragua base of operations and was used to house Laken Riley’s killer.”

“Mark my words: there will not be a single penny spent that goes against the interest and safety of the American people,” she vowed.
Her announcement came on the heels of Elon Musk, heading up DOGE efforts, announcing that they discovered a $59 million payment made last week to luxury hotels in the Big Apple, all with the purpose of housing migrants.
“Sending this money violated the law and is in gross insubordination to the President’s executive order,” Musk wrote.

U go gryl....
New York City is gonna try to sue to get it back I bet.
“An immigrant family...”
WRONG
“ Sending this money violated the law and is in gross insubordination to the President’s executive order,” Musk wrote.
The person who authorized sending the money, in defiance of Trump’s order, should be prosecuted, to send a message to the rest.
Even if no DC jury would convict, the process would be the punishment, as J6 defendants experienced.
They are in New York city to pick lettuce from the numerous fields in the area..
I prefer to call them criminal invaders. “Illegal immigrant” makes it sound like it a parking ticket or something.
My wife reminded me of my "branded insane conspiracy" accusations at the time, today. She brought that with a second cup of coffee this morning.
I hope they were ‘evicted’ ... seems that woman is not scraggly and hungry.
“..They are in New York city to pick lettuce from the numerous fields in the area.....”
lettuce = money
fields = citizens
“An immigrant family show their paperwork to security guards at the Roosevelt Hotel”
Well clothed, well feed, nice high end new sneakers..... I’m sure that is how they were appointed when they illegally crossed the boarder /s
And if they can’t, I expect to see them bounce those illegals out of that hotel inside a month.
Not after Trump pardoned Adam’s. He is Trumps guy now.
Keep this up and I might just change my mind about you.
Keep this up and New York won’t be voting for Trump in 2028.
Oh, wait...
Oh, wait again...
good
This is just the beginning! There will be many more massive claw backs (or attempts at claw backs) which will be attached to criminal penalties. The justice department and secret service will both be very busy with investigations. Just wait until they attach “wire fraud” to each transaction/transfer of funds!
The Grifters never give up. They have no shame.
I heard some fag “judge” decided they couldn’t take the money back. I want to know where that unelected azho gets the authority to do that? It’s time to start locking those scumbags up for ripping off the U.S. taxpayers with their retarded “decisions”. They ARE NOT GODS!
I'll take that bet. Mayor Adams has one foot out the Democrat Party door (as well he should).
