If a homeless veteran was turned away from housing assistance that illegal immigrants were getting, that would be newsworthy.
I'm saying it didn't happen.
The news usually doesn't make articles about things that didn't happen.  I won't be able to find an article about a nuclear bomb going off in Jacksonville, just like you won't be able to find an article about a homeless veteran being turned away in New York City.

Then you make another claim.  Money was specifically earmarked? Prove it.

If you think veteran's rate above illegal immigrants to the progressives you have lost your damn mind. My now ex-husband and I are both veterans and when living in Riverside we were friends with a group of folks who were liberals. They didn't care that we were vets as long as we didn't talk about it but if it came up in conversation somehow you would think we had murdered their dog. 

And this was back in the 2007-2010 timeframe when there wasn't as much hate and discontent stirred up by social media and MSM as there is now. Those folks had no love for veterans in general. 

On a slow news day the fate of homeless vets might rank above illegal immigrants, depending on what the story is.

Also, a simple search turned this up. Actually read the article before commenting. Federal money has absolutely been specifically marked for illegal immigrants.
