DOGE Says FEMA Sent $59 Million Payment Last Week to Hotels in NYC to House Illegal Aliens
The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) uncovered a $59 million FEMA payment from just last week to house illegal aliens in “luxury hotels in New York City,” Elon Musk announced Monday.
The payment comes after the Biden administration had claimed FEMA was not using funds to support illegal aliens. “It’s just categorically false. It is not true,” former White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre told reporters in October.
Republicans argued FEMA did not have enough money in the fall to help victims of the hurricane in North Carolina, but President Joe Biden’s Department of Homeland Security claimed those reports were “completely false” and noted the agency had enough money to fund relief efforts and the FEMA Emergency Food and Shelter Program, which the Biden administration authorized in late 2022 to respond to the migrant crisis.
Musk, who is leading the DOGE initiative to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, said the FEMA payment violated the law and a “clawback demand will be made today to recoup those funds”:
There is confusion as to what to post where. Clearly, this was DOGE reference. There is no mention of the president in the article. Should everything go to President Trumps thread?This message has been edited. Last edited by: downtownv,

"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." -- Justice Janice Rogers Brown

FEMA is a disaster. We could save a fortune by just having four talking heads who do press conferences (embroidered shirts, serious looks, pre-prepared notes, a check list of talking points) and stay out of the way.
The flood response in NC has been Americans pitching in to help Americans. FEMA should be embarrassed to even show up there.

Put this in the Adams vs Biden Thread, probably belongs here...
Much of this housing illegals in hotels in sanctuary cities is about money.
The Roosevelt hotel in NYC is owned by the Pakistani Airline. PIA made a deal to house illegals in it's 1200 room hotel in exchange for the government funding.
They are giving Pakistan money through moving FEMA money through the housing illegals program.. Imagine there are many political allies that are also getting paid.. Probably by PIA...
No doubt billions of US taxpayer dollars are housing illegals in sanctuary cities and it's a method to launder money through government programs.
Bravo to DOGE! PLEASE keep it up. I have to say, this is one of the most uplifting things I have seen or experienced from my government in a long time.
