Federal Emergency Management Agency ( Fema ) was short on cash for the rest of hurricane season.

Trump claimed the agency had spent over $640 m ( 487 m) on housing migrants.

But US officials said that money was allocated through a different funding pot to disaster relief.

The White House has called Trump 's claims 'poison' and accused Republicans of spreading 'bald-faced lies'.
