The Trump administration has taken back $80 million that FEMA had given New York City to cover the hotel costs for asylum seekers. New York’s Comptroller Brad Lander accused Elon Musk of “highway robbery.” Earlier this week, Musk lashed out at the use of federal dollars to provide temporary shelter to asylum seekers, falsely claiming immigrants were staying in “luxury hotels.”
Meanwhile, in Colorado, Denver’s public school district has become the first in the nation to sue Trump over its policy allowing Immigration and Customs Enforcement, ICE, to conduct raids at schools, which caused attendance to plummet.
