Former President Donald Trump ripped into the Biden-Harris administration on Thursday, accusing it of spending FEMA money to house illegal immigrants while the government warned it may run out of funds for future hurricane relief.
Trump made the comments during a rally in Saginaw, Michigan, where he discussed economic policy, the border, and the Biden administration’s response to Hurricane Helene. Trump called the Biden-Harris handling of Helene, now with a death toll of more than 200, the “worst response in the history of hurricanes.”
“If you want to see how sick and distorted Kamala Harris’ priorities are, just consider FEMA,” Trump said, referring to the $1.4 billion in FEMA money being used to house migrants over the last two years. “Kamala spent all her FEMA money, billions of dollars, on housing for illegal migrants, many of whom should not be in our country.”
“Now we have a horrific disaster in North Carolina, Georgia, South Carolina, Alabama, Tennessee, Florida, and Virginia,” he added. “And the Harris-Biden administration says they don’t have any money…they spent it all on illegal migrants.”
