Trump Withholding Hundreds Of Millions In Aid To Central America As Immigration Crisis Rages On
 
By Daily Caller

Jason Hopkins on June 17, 2019

President Donald Trump is officially withholding hundreds of millions in U.S. aid to three Central American countries as punishment for being much of the source of the current illegal immigration crisis.

The White House informed Congress Monday that it will permanently divert $370 million in aid to El Salvador, Honduras and Guatemala, according to Reuters. That money was previously approved by Congress for fiscal year 2018, but had not yet been used.

Trump is not stopping there. The administration is also suspending $180 million that was approved in fiscal year 2017 that had not yet been spent.

Good.

Don't give them a cent.

Withhold it ALL.
