DHS Sec. Kirstjen Nielsen granted $1.7 Billion of federal funding to sanctuary cities, despite the Trump Administration's public objection to funding jurisdictions that do not fully cooperate with immigration law enforcement.
According to three sources, including two former DHS employees, Sec. Nielsen made the decision to authorize funds for the sanctuary jurisdictions days before they were granted, despite pushback from her top staff.
