FEMA has fired four employees, including the CFO, for violating Trump's Executive Order regarding $59 million in payments intended for disaster aid. These employees diverted funds to cover luxury hotel accommodations for illegal immigrants in New York City, bypassing DHS leadership in the process. The administration's decision to terminate them is seen as a necessary action to uphold the order and prevent misuse of funds.

Video Transcript AI Summary
We've just received a statement from DHS about the $59 million FEMA sent to New York City for migrants. Four employees are being fired for circumventing leadership and unilaterally making that payment for hotels. It's long overdue. New York City has been wasting billions on free housing, clothing, food, education, and healthcare for illegal immigrants.
I applaud DHS for stopping these payments, incentivized under past leadership. New York is circumventing federal law by allowing illegal immigrants to get benefits and access taxpayer money. The state's migrant crisis is destroying New York City, fleecing hardworking New Yorkers, and we have to stop this.
Also, New York's top court is considering noncitizen voting in New York City elections, which could add 800,000 noncitizen voters. New York Republicans fought this before and won in lower courts, but I am concerned about the current court of appeals.
Speaker 0: Fox News Alert moments ago, we received this together. We received a statement from the DHS regarding the $59,000,000 sent from FEMA to New York City migrants last week. Quote, four employees being fired today for circumventing leadership and unilaterally making the egregious payment for hotels for migrants in New York City. We have not we have not announced it yet, so you have, so we have it first. There's gonna be firing, so names are gonna be out, and let's bring in New York congressman Mike Lawler.
Congressman, your thought about that move?
Speaker 1: Well, it's long overdue, frankly. These funds have been misappropriated, going back to the Biden administration. And New York City, a sanctuary city, has been wasting billions of dollars of taxpayer money, billions with a b, to provide free housing, clothing, food, education, and health care to illegal immigrants, including criminal aliens that are here illegally. And so, you know, I I applaud, frankly, DHS, for taking action, to stop these payments, under president Trump's leadership because we have incentivized cities like New York and states like New York, a sanctuary state, to allow this to continue, and it has to stop.
Speaker 0: Look. It cost New York and its little salvage of us billions of dollars, because the the water was wide open for four years. And the mayor that spoke up got exiled in the Democratic Party. Ironically, he's about to be, I I guess, in a way, pardoned or or protected by this president who sees a lot of the targeting of mayor Eric Adams as the same thing that happened to him.
Speaker 1: No question. Eric Adams spoke out against what the Biden administration was doing. He said that the migrant crisis was, quote, unquote, destroying New York City. Kathy Hochul, authorized billions of dollars of state taxpayer money, to pay for all these expenditures. Meanwhile, she's fleecing hardworking New Yorkers twenty five hundred dollars just for the privilege of driving to work.
It it really just speaks volumes to how inept, incompetent, and corrupt, New York has become under feckless leadership.
Speaker 0: Right.
Speaker 1: We have to stop this massive influx at the border, which is what president Trump is doing, but we have to stop incentivizing states and cities like New York by spending billions, and in this case, from FEMA, fifty nine million dollars, to support their efforts to circumvent federal law. That's really what this boils down to. States like New York are circumventing federal law Right. Allowing illegal immigrants, to get benefits and access to taxpayer money.
Speaker 0: Alright. So let's talk about something else that is just bizarre that is happening in New York. New York's top court said to consider noncitizen voting in New York City elections today. Get this. Noncitizen, you don't belong here.
You're not registered. Blowing off court appearance. Doesn't matter. That would add 800,000 noncitizen voters. Why is this even a discussion?
Speaker 1: It shouldn't be. New York Republicans fought back against this effort, several years ago. We were victorious in the lower court and the appellate division, and now it goes to the court of appeals. Unfortunately, I'm a little, bit concerned because the New York Court of Appeals has been corrupted by Kathy Hochul and New York Democrats. This is why they tried to
