Trump Unilaterally Cancels Congressionally Approved Spending on Immigration Services, in Defiance of the Law
Last year, Donald Trump canceled $4.9 billion in congressionally approved foreign aid with a “pocket rescission.” The maneuver works by asking Congress to rescind funds so close to the end of the fiscal year that the money expires before lawmakers can act.

Here's your reminder that border czar Tom Homan, who is terrorizing hard-working immigrants, took $50,000 in an FBI bribery sting. The Trump regime killed the probe, and there’s no indication that Homan paid the money back to the taxpayers – or even paid taxes on the "income."
ms.now
Tom Homan was investigated for accepting $50,000 from undercover FBI agents. Trump's DOJ shut it down.
The FBI and Justice officials closed the investigation, which a Justice Department appointee had called a “deep state” probe in early 2025.
