From the Washington Examiner: Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) suggested that governors and mayors of sanctuary states or cities for illegal immigrants could “absolutely” have federal aid withheld from them through the Department of Government Efficiency’s work.
The newly-formed DOGE, co-headed by billionaires Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, aims to make massive cuts to government spending, in which House Republicans are expected to form a subcommittee to coordinate with the agency. In previewing DOGE’s work, Greene said the agency will be looking at everything including “government-funded media programs like NPR” to grant programs funding “sex apps in Malaysia.”
“I want to talk to the people at the Pentagon and ask them why they can’t find billions of dollars every single year and why they fail their audit,” Greene said on Fox News’s Sunday Morning Futures with Maria Bartiromo. “But not just that, Maria, I’d like to talk to the governors of sanctuary states and the mayors of sanctuary cities and have them come before our committee and explain why they deserve federal dollars if they’re going to harbor illegal criminal aliens in their states and their cities. We’re going to look in every single aspect, and we don’t care about people’s feelings. We’re going to be searching for the facts and we’re going to be verifying if this is worth spending the American people’s hard-earned tax dollars on.”
Multiple Democrat mayors and governors have brazenly insisted they will remain sanctuaries for illegal aliens, and will fight against President-elect Donald Trump’s mass deportation plans.
The Democrats vowing to oppose Trump’s deportation plans include Gov. J.B. Pritzker (IL), Gov. Katie Hobbs (AZ), Gov. Gavin Newsom (CA), Gov. Maura Healey (Mass.), Boston Mayor Michelle Wu, Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass, and Denver Mayor Mike Johnston.
Referring to the horrific murder of Georgia nursing student Laken Riley at the hands of an illegal alien gang member last year, Greene said, “Laken Riley’s story is not a singular story, it’s a story that happens to Americans all over the country. Nearly every single day, an American is murdered by an illegal alien. If these Democrat governors and mayors want to use their federal dollars and they want to use this funding to harbor illegal criminal aliens then, yeah, we’re coming after their money, and they don’t deserve a single penny of it.”
