Daily Caller: Department Of Transportation Threatens To Defund Cities That Don’t Cooperate With ICE

Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy announced Monday that the Department of Transportation (DOT) will withhold funding from states and cities that do not work with the Trump administration on immigration enforcement and riot control.

“Rogue state actors who refuse to cooperate with federal immigration enforcement” will not receive funding from the DOT, Duffy said in a post on X.

“Don’t expect a red cent from DOT, either. Follow the law, or forfeit the funding,” Duffy said.

Yet another illegal withholding of funds that our courts will have to waste time on!

Trump accused these cities of being the “core of the Democrat Power Center,” as he says they “use Illegal Aliens to expand their Voter Base, cheat in Elections, and grow the Welfare State, robbing good paying Jobs and Benefits from Hardworking American Citizens.”

Goofy!

Raw Story: Trump’s own words are being thrown back in his face after his latest threat

Now:

Donald Trump’s own words are being thrown back in his face after his Saturday Wal-Mart threat.

The president over the weekend told Walmart’s executives that they should absorb any increased costs that he has created on imported goods through trade policies.

“I’ll be watching, and so will your customers!!!” Trump wrote as he demanded Wal-Mart and China simply “eat the tariffs.”

Then:

But that didn’t sit well with many longtime Trump onlookers, who observed that the president previously said no one would need to eat the tariffs.

Author James Surowiecki said, “But Trump has said over and over again that foreign countries pay tariffs, not US businesses or consumers.”

“If that’s true, why would Walmart have to eat anything?” he then asked.
