Trump's monstrous vanity was all it was. New York will not rename the tunnel after him. So he lawlessly tried to stop the workers from being paid their wages. What an a$$.
In any event, here's that three page Treasury status report -- on payments so far:
. . .With respect to the three loan agreements executed between the Build America Bureau (the “Bureau”) and GDC under the Railroad Rehabilitation Improvement Financing (“RRIF”) program, all outstanding reimbursement requests totaling $30,207,203 were paid on Friday, February 13. . . .
With respect to the Federal Transit Administration (“FTA”) grant agreements executed between FTA and GDC under the Capital Improvements Grant (“CIG”) program, GDC had $66,542,105 in outstanding reimbursement requests. On Friday, February 13, FTA approved the full $66,542,105 and transmitted this payment to Treasury. Treasury is processing the request. We understand that GDC should receive payment today or tomorrow. . . .
With respect to the Federal Railroad Administration (“FRA”) grant agreement between FRA and GDC under the Federal-State Partnership for Intercity Passenger Rail (“FSP”) program, GDC had $136,724,429 in outstanding reimbursement requests. On Friday, February 13, FRA approved $8.8 million, which covers the first of five invoices GDC submitted, and transmitted this payment to Treasury. We understand that GDC should receive the payment today or tomorrow. The remaining four invoices of approximately $128 million were approved Friday evening and were sent to Treasury today at 2:30 PM. We understand that GDC should receive the payment tomorrow or Thursday, February 19, 2026. . . .
This is. . . progress -- but it is simply atrocious that Tangerine 2.0 jerks hard working construction people around -- many living paycheck to paycheck -- like this. Damnation.
