“We had an inaccurate graphic on screen … we just want to be clear the funding is being cut off to three Central American countries. The headline appeared for 30 seconds during a discussion about punitive measures taken by President Trump to secure the U.S.-Mexico border. No more money is going there
Fox News apologized Sunday after a live “Fox & Friends” segment graphic that read, “Trump Cuts Aid to 3 Mexican Countries.”
“I’ve ended payments to Guatemala, to Honduras and El Salvador. No more money is going there anymore,” Trump told reporters Friday. “We were giving them $500 million. We were paying them tremendous amounts of money, and we’re not paying them anymore because they haven’t done a thing for us.” There has been a record-breaking surge of U.S.-bound migrants at the southern border as these countries face economic and social disorder. In February, a majority of the 76,000 migrants taken into U.S. custody were from Central America.
Last month, Trump declared a national emergency to build a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border, but Congress passed a resolution to nullify the declaration. Trump has since vetoed it, and the House failed to override the veto.
