FEMA Top Official Fired Over $59 Million Housing Payment For Illegals

There are now consequences for, let’s call it, improper behavior in government service under the Trump administration

Top FEMA Official Is Fired Over Payments for N.Y.C. Migrant Shelters

The Trump administration said on Tuesday that it had fired four employees from the Federal Emergency Management Agency, including the agency’s chief financial officer, over their roles in disbursing federal funds to house migrants in New York City hotels.

The firings capped a startling chain of events that began on Monday with an early-morning social media post by Elon Musk who claimed, misleadingly, that FEMA had recently sent $59 million meant for disaster relief to New York City to pay for “high end hotels” for migrants, and who called the expenditure unlawful.

New York City officials raced to clarify that the federal money had been properly allocated by FEMA under President Joseph R. Biden Jr. last year, adding that it was not a disaster relief grant and had not been spent on luxury hotels.

Nonetheless, just two hours after Mr. Musk’s post, FEMA’s acting director, Cameron Hamilton, announced that the payments in question “have all been suspended” — even though most of the money had already been disbursed — and that “personnel will be held accountable.”

You can see that the NY Times is rather upset that any federal employee would be disciplined and that money for illegals would be stopped. To hell with those stupid rubes in Western NC and California.

Tricia McLaughlin, a spokeswoman for the Department of Homeland Security, which oversees FEMA, said that the four employees had been terminated “for circumventing leadership to unilaterally make egregious payments for luxury N.Y.C. hotels for migrants.”

Ms. McLaughlin did not specify how the employees had undermined leadership, or how making payments previously appropriated by Congress amounted to unilateral conduct. But she said that those fired included two program analysts, a grant specialist and the agency’s chief financial officer, Mary Comans, whom FEMA’s website identifies as a “longtime public servant.”

We were told that FEMA was out of money for Western NC, but, they sure had enough for illegal aliens and fake asylum seekers.

The swift firings underscored Mr. Musk’s growing influence over the federal government as the Trump administration moves to slash government spending and reshape the federal bureaucracy, purging civil servants along the way. Ms. Comans’s firing also appeared to rid FEMA, an agency that Mr. Trump and Ms. Noem have suggested should be eliminated, of the person responsible for managing its $33 billion budget, which helps finance the government’s response to natural disasters.

So, the Times is upset with Musk for uncovering idiotic spending that helps illegals instead Americans? Keep dying on this hill, wackjobs.

Alabama officer’s minor traffic stop leads to discovery of cocaine being trafficked by illegal aliens

A police force in a small Alabama town uncovered illegal aliens trafficking a large amount of cocaine after an officer stopped their car for a minor violation.

Calera Police Chief David Hyche said a patrol officer stopped a vehicle traveling through the town last week for not having a tag. During the stop, Hyche said “probable cause for a search was evident,” which ultimately led to the discovery of 46 pounds of cocaine.

He said the monetary value of the drugs will be determined after Homeland Security Investigations is done examining what was seized.

The driver and the passenger, both men who are from Colombia and in the U.S. illegally, were arrested and charged with trafficking cocaine. Hyche said one of the men is wanted in Atlanta for drug trafficking and failure to appear.

Were these some of those good illegals we keep hearing about?

Illegal alien charged in sandwich shop owner’s murder caught and released into US under Biden: ICE

The suspect in the grisly murder of a Massachusetts sandwich shop owner is a 25-year-old illegal alien from the Dominican Republic who was released into the U.S. after he was stopped near the border in Texas under then-President Joe Biden in September 2022, according to Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

Eric Dionida German-Pena is charged with the murder of Ilias Mavros, better known as Louie and the owner of Crazy Buzzy’s Roast Beef and Seafood in Lynn.

How about him? Another good one?
