Trump says he will cut federal funds to sanctuary cities and states — beginning in 3 weeks
President Donald Trump said that he would seek to end federal funds to sanctuary cities and those states that have sanctuary cities by the beginning of February.
Trump made the comments during an address at the Detroit Economic Club, where he also advocated cutting credit card interest rates to a maximum of 10%.
‘It breeds fraud and crime and all of the other problems that come, so we’re not making any payment to anybody that supports sanctuary cities.’
“Starting February 1, we are not making any payments to sanctuary cities or states having sanctuary cities because they do everything possible to protect criminals at the expense of American citizens,” the president said.
“It breeds fraud and crime and all of the other problems that come, so we’re not making any payment to anybody that supports sanctuary cities,” he added.
When asked to elaborate on the decision, he offered no further details.
“You’ll see,” Trump said. “It’ll be significant.”
The Department of Justice had previously identified 11 states they considered to be sanctuary states that included California, New York, and Connecticut.
Trump has tried to cut federal funds twice before but was blocked by judges’ rulings in both instances. In early January, he tried to cut $10 billion from child-care services but was blocked by a New York judge. In October, he cut almost $8 billion of funding from states that voted for Kamala Harris, but that effort was blocked by a Washington, D.C., judge.
He also touted his record on the economy during the speech.
“Growth is exploding, productivity is soaring, investment is booming, incomes are rising. Inflation is defeated,” Trump said.

New York Immigration Coalition president Murad Awawdeh released a statement condemning the president’s decision against sanctuary cities.
“Punishing states and cities that refuse to participate in the federal government’s inhumane and cruel attacks on immigrants is simply a playground bullying tactic. New York’s hardworking families, children, and elderly will pay the price if Trump gets his way,” Awawdeh wrote.
“Federal funding belongs to us all, as part of our government’s responsibility to ensure needs like healthcare, education, infrastructure, and public safety are met,” he added. “We expect New York City and other sanctuary jurisdictions to call this bully’s bluff by litigating this egregious violation of our City and State’s 10th Amendment rights and the federal government’s responsibility to provide essential services to all counties, cities and states.”

Migrant welfare recipients called out for funding TERROR GROUPS overseas with taxpayer dollars
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is warning that the federal government is about to crack down on migrant welfare recipients who send money overseas — and BlazeTV host Sara Gonzales is shocked that it was ever allowed in the first place.
“And from now on, anyone who wires money out from one of these money service businesses has to check a box saying whether they are on public assistance. And if you are on public assistance, we are going to start pushing that you cannot wire money out of the country,” Bessent told Laura Ingraham on Fox News.
“Well, what if they lie and they don’t tell us they’re on public assistance?” Ingraham asked. “That’s a crime, lying on a federal form.”
“We’re going to follow it up, and we are going to push that you can no longer do that. The American people, our generosity has been taken advantage of,” he responded.
“Our generosity is funding al-Shabaab and Iranian interests. … This is really bad,” Ingraham chimed in.
“The money is supposed to go for alleged asylum seekers and their families and children, and if you were wiring the money out of the country, one of two things must be true: You are getting too much money and your benefits should be cut, or you are part of this conspiracy,” Bessent said firmly.
“If the federal taxpayers are paying for you to live here, you’re not allowed to send their money. It’s not even your money. Their money, my money, you’re not allowed to send overseas. That should not be controversial at all,” Gonzales comments on “Sara Gonzales Unfiltered.”
“If you are so broke that you need taxpayer dollars, you are not allowed to send it overseas. You’re not allowed to send it to your family overseas. You’re not allowed to send it to terror groups overseas. You’re not allowed to send it to anybody overseas,” she continues.
And the amount of immigrants receiving benefits from taxpaying American citizens is not a small number.
“You’ve got over half of immigrant-headed households that receive cash, food, medical care, or housing benefits from taxpayers. Over half, according to the Center for Immigration Studies,” Gonzales says.
“We know that over half of these people are taking more than they are bringing to the table,” she continues, pointing out that money sent or brought back by migrants is “almost three times as much as global foreign aid.”
“Look at that chart: 822 billion versus 288 billion in foreign aid. … This is just these people coming here, taking from us, and then sending it back home or sending it to their favorite terror group,” she adds.
