King Trump? No More $ for Illegals

Thank you for your patience as we navigate 2025 and the tremendous pace of our 47th President. Lori now has a regular spot on Gen. Michael Flynn’s Patriot.tv every Wednesday.

President Trump signed an executive order late Wednesday night, ending the use of taxpayer money to support illegal aliens. The House Homeland Security Committee estimates that taxpayers have spent $451 billion to care for illegal aliens and got-aways since January 2021.

The savings are only beginning, as Trump has given Elon Musk and DOGE the authority to kick several millions off Social Security. One account receiving payments was born twenty years after the Mayflower arrived, and another was born at the time of the Declaration of Independence.

These payments were discovered when DOGE reviewed the Social Security Administration. These examples are just two of the 12 million people who are at least 120 years old and still being paid.

All of these scams have now been terminated, according to the President.

King Trump

New York Governor Kathy Hochul implemented a driving toll for Manhattan. After initially vowing to charge $15, she dropped the price to $9. She says this is necessary to reduce traffic.

President Trump over-rode her and declared “congestion pricing is dead. Manhattan, and all of New York, is SAVED. LONG LIVE THE KING!”

Above: Trump poking fun at those accusing him of acting like a king; image on right shows the electronic tax collection devises set up all over Manhattan.

Fox News’ David Asman observed that the American Revolution was triggered by taxation without representation. “This modern version is even more pernicious,” he wrote on X.

Hochul says she plans to sue the administration. How? She will use taxpayer money, of course!

• Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick reports that President Trump has signed an order to build a pipeline on the East Coast, which will reduce the price of natural gas in the region by 50 percent. Governor Hochul is fighting the pipeline.

• Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy announced an investigation into California’s Bullet Train that cost $16 billion taxpayer dollars over 17 years, but got nowhere.

Thanks for reading and supporting Praying Citizen. Be sure to watch the video, which includes scripture and prayer points!

Keep praying for President Trump’s policies, for wisdom and discernment, and that he will follow God as He leads.
