Illegal immigration is detrimental to the U.S. economy, in so many ways.
Not only do illegal aliens steal jobs from American workers, but they frequently send a large portion of their earnings back to their home countries.
Essentially, they siphon money from the American economy back to wherever they are originally from.
This sums up the issue:
These kinds of 'remittances' are basically international theft.

But, it all ends now.
Today, the Trump administration announced a big move to stop this type of exploitation in its tracks.
The Treasury Department published a memo warning that they will now be seizing any and all remittances sent abroad by illegals.
Take a look:

A press release from the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network reads:
Today, the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) is issuing an Alert as part of Treasury’s effort to prevent the exploitation of the U.S. financial system by illegal aliens in the United States seeking to move illicitly obtained funds. Annually over the past several years, the United States has witnessed a significant volume of cross-border funds transfers, including remittances from individuals located in the United States, and has taken multiple steps this year to highlight risks presented by cross-border financial activity.
“Money services businesses should be vigilant in identifying suspicious financial activity involving illegal aliens who present significant threats to national security and public safety,” said Under Secretary for Terrorism and Financial Intelligence John K. Hurley. “At Treasury, we will continue to protect the American people by faithfully upholding the laws of the United States.”
This Alert is consistent with Executive Order 14159, Protecting the American People Against Invasion. Money services businesses (MSBs) are generally required to file a suspicious activity report for a transaction that involves at least $2,000 and that the MSBs know, suspect, or have reason to suspect is relevant to a possible violation of law or regulation. This includes the cross-border transfer of funds derived from unlawful employment or otherwise derived from funds the MSB knows, suspects, or has reason to suspect were illicitly obtained in the United States.
All of the illegal immigrants who engage in this type of international theft need to be deported…and ICE is certainly working on it!
In the meantime, flagging and seizing remittances is a solid step in the right direction.
It’s also a good incentive for self-deportation.
This is what “America First” looks like in practice: protecting our borders, our financial system, and our citizens’ jobs.
Every other President kicked the can.🥫— Bret Seufert (@bret8202) November 29, 2025
Your thoughts?
About time!
The illegal alien democrats send money back to their relatives so that they will have the cash to travel to the USA, bringing in even more illegal aliens.
Shut the entire damn thing down. Also make the employers pay huge fines for hiring these illegal democrats. /spit
Of course. Money made in America needs to stay within the American economy. Shameful that this has been going on for so many decades.
Now the 💩 hits the fan. This will start the ball. Get armed and be safe. Wish they could intercept what’s coming in to these azzholes. They are being paid to kill our troops. IMO
Now????
I think a lot of legal immigrants send money to relatives in other countries.
How will they know the difference?
(I’ve never sent money overseas, so I don’t know how it works.)
Legal immigrants send money after its been taxed, medicaid/medicare has been deducted/ets- illegals primarily work for cash that’s never been taxed.
I voted for this.
Oh, MY!
Just wait!
What about all of the Judges suffering from Boasberger’s Syndrome?
What percentage of these money transfers end up in their wallets, purses, Cayman accounts?
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm??
Nice.
What ID will the check...their voter card? Drivers license? Or citizenship papers...yeah right. Sorry...I am kinda cuynical right now.
Will last about 2 seconds once our enemies in black robes hear about this.
How does one say “Hawala” in gutter spanish? This will be difficult to enforce even after fighting past all the Obama judges issuing global injunctions.
“What percentage of these money transfers end up in their wallets, purses, Cayman accounts?”
...& Democrat coffers?..................
La Presidenta, Claudia Sheinbaum, is going to pee her panties.
That doesn’t answer my question.
Go Big Don, go!
