Trump AXES Funding for California Rail Project | SLAMS ‘Newscum’ Over $130B ‘Train to Nowhere’ Plan

In a fiery declaration, U.S. President Donald Trump has officially axed all federal funding for California’s long-delayed and over-budget high-speed rail project. Calling it the “HIGH SPEED TRAIN TO NOWHERE,” Trump accused Governor Gavin Newsom—mockingly dubbed “Newscum”—of overseeing a $130 billion disaster that has delivered nothing but cost overruns and broken promises. Despite decades of work and billions spent, the rail line connecting San Francisco to Los Angeles remains incomplete and years behind schedule. Trump praised Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy for ensuring that not “a single penny” more will be wasted on the project. The move not only highlights Trump’s disdain for the project but also signals a political jab at one of his most prominent Democratic rivals. With this announcement, Trump rallies fiscal conservatives and taxpayers, painting himself as the guardian of their wallets against California’s “boondoggle.” #TrumpNews #CaliforniaRail #HighSpeedRail #TrainToNowhere #NewsomScam #TrumpVsNewsom #FederalFundingCut #GavinNewsom #TrumpSpeech #USPolitics #InfrastructureFail #RailProjectCancelled #TransportationNews #TrumpAnnouncement #SeanDuffy #CaliforniaBudget #TaxpayerMoney #PoliticalShowdown #Trump2024 #WastedBillions
