No shit.
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said on Friday that he’s working to cut off federal benefits to people in the United States illegally, emphasizing that those benefits should be preserved for American citizens.
“At [President Donald Trump]‘s direction, we are working to cut off federal benefits to illegal aliens and preserve them for U.S. citizens,” Bessent posted to X on Friday.
“[The United States Treasury] announced that it will issue proposed regulations clarifying that the refunded portions of certain individual income tax benefits are no longer available to illegal and other non-qualified aliens, covering the Earned Income Tax Credit, the Additional Child Tax Credit, the American Opportunity Tax Credit, and the Saver’s Match Credit,” he explained.
Bessent’s announcement was made in response to President Donald Trump declaring on Thanksgiving that he would pause all migration from third-world countries.
Trump also promised to “end all Federal benefits and subsidies to noncitizens of our Country, denaturalize migrants who undermine domestic tranquility, and deport any Foreign National who is a public charge, security risk, or non-compatible with Western Civilization.”
Americans’ generosity, Trump said, has been weaponized, allowing a vast foreign-born population to overwhelm the country and inflict deep social harm.
Trump said the U.S. now hosts a “foreign population” of 53 million, citing census data, and charged that many recent arrivals depend on taxpayer-supported welfare programs while coming from “failed nations, or from prisons, mental institutions, gangs, or drug cartels.”
Illegals have been receiving benefits like food stamps, welfare, free education, tax credits, medical care, and housing for years.
DOGE revealed that illegals received social security and voted in elections.
During the Biden regime, the VA helped to pay for the medical treatment of illegals while thousands of veterans waited for care.
That shit is over. Send all of them home.
