DOGE: FEMA Sent $59 Million Last Week to House Illegals in NYC Luxury Hotels
Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) was still sending millions of taxpayer dollars to luxury hotels in New York City to house illegal aliens as recently as last week, according to DOGE chief Elon Musk.
In a post on X early Monday morning, an irate Musk wrote that his team had just discovered that “FEMA sent $59 million LAST WEEK to luxury hotels in New York City to house illegal migrants.”
Trump signed an executive order on January 24 to create a council to review FEMA, address the agency’s failed responses to recent disasters and come up with a plan “to drastically improve the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s (“FEMA’s) efficacy, priorities, and competence.”
Trump also signed an executive order requiring all federal agencies to “temporarily pause all activities related to…disbursement of all Federal financial assistance, and other relevant agency activities.”...
Musk said FEMA’s transfer of funds to the luxury hotels “violated the law and is in gross insubordination to the President’s executive order.”
He added: “That money is meant for American disaster relief and instead is being spent on high end hotels for illegals! A clawback demand will be made today to recoup those funds.”...
