Yeah, well, that was money the Biden-Harris admin gave them as illegals were pouring over the border, and being flown in, thanks to the Biden-Harris admin. Then were sent to sanctuary cities just like Sanctuary City New York by Greg Abbott
New York City sues Trump administration over $80M FEMA migrant funding clawback
New York City is suing the Trump administration after FEMA revoked more than $80 million in migrant funding, citing concerns over “illegal activities” at a hotel.
The lawsuit argues that the federal government violated regulations and seeks to prevent future clawbacks of approved funds.
What we know: The lawsuit claims that FEMA unlawfully withdrew $80 million in approved funding meant for migrant assistance. The funds were initially disbursed on February 4, 2025, but were removed from a city bank account on February 11, 2025, without prior notice.
The money was originally awarded under the Shelter and Services Program to assist with the city’s efforts in housing and supporting migrants.
City Comptroller Brad Lander raised concerns over the legality of FEMA’s move, stating that his office had no knowledge that the federal government could access and remove money directly from the city’s account. FEMA officials later cited “illegal activities” at a hotel as a justification for the clawback, though details remain unclear.
Go cry to Biden-Harris. Raise the taxes on SCNY residents. And ask Americans who saw the IRS yank money from their bank accounts.
“Without a doubt, our immigration system is broken, but the cost of managing an international humanitarian crisis should not overwhelmingly fall onto one city alone,” Adams said. “With very little help from the federal government, our administration has skillfully managed an unprecedented crisis, which has seen over 231,000 people enter our city asking for shelter. The $80 million that FEMA approved, paid, and then rescinded—after the city spent more than $7 billion in the last three years—is the bare minimum our taxpayers deserve.”
Go cry to Biden-Harris.

Trump Plans to Use Military Sites Across the Country to Detain Undocumented Immigrants
The Trump administration is ramping up plans to detain undocumented immigrants at military sites across the United States, a significant expansion of efforts by the White House to use wartime resources to make good on the president’s promised mass deportations.
President Trump’s team is developing a deportation hub at Fort Bliss, near El Paso, Texas, that could eventually hold up to 10,000 undocumented immigrants as they go through the process of being deported, according to three officials familiar with the plan.
Good. The more migrants realize they won’t be staying in luxury hotels and provided phones and more, that things won’t be cushy as they are processed the fewer will come.

I stayed in an airport hangar for a few very chilly nights at Ft Bliss once. If it was good enough for American service members it ought to be good enough for foreign invaders on their way home.
