New York carrying 'entire burden' of border crisis as Eric Adams refuses to hold public hearings on where illegal immigrants will be housed

The city of New York has been struggling to contain the mass influx of illegal immigrants that are overwhelming the city's limited resources, and Mayor Eric Adams (D) is not being transparent on where they will be housed as he refuses to hold a public hearing on the issue.

On Tuesday, Mayor Adams said that the crisis at the US-Mexico border caused by the Biden administration's lax immigration policies has had a significant impact on the city of New York, calling it a "burden" for New Yorkers, Fox News reports.

"We are carrying this entire burden. This national problem is being laid in the lap of New Yorkers," Adams told Fox 5 New York on Tuesday.

I suspect the borders towns such as El Paso would beg to differ. Those town have been carrying this burden for years and it has increased to disastrous levels since Biden was installed in the White House. New York has received only a few hundred illegal aliens. Border cities are over-run with tens of thousands. The financial burden, crime, and stress on public services and health care has been astronomical.

The gall of these people to make such claims. These border states have been overrun because Communists such as Token Adams insist on violating the Constitution and illegally declaring "their" city a "Sanctuary City".

These illegal aliens need to be housed in Democrats' houses while awaiting deportation.

“Carrying entire burden” Um, maybe 5% of the burden? Texas, NM, AZ and California take 90% of the burden.

I read where New York is reopening Rikers Island. Just for the illegals.

Rikers was just closed last year, but now needs have changed.

How appropriate.

“Court blocks Eric Adams from removing illegal immigrants from New York City”

“On Tuesday, the New York Supreme Court temporarily blocked New York City mayor Eric Adams from transporting illegal immigrants to nearby Orange County.

State Supreme Court Judge Sandra Sciortino ruled that while illegal immigrants who had already been bussed up the Hudson to stay at the Crossroads Hotel and Ramada by Wyndham in Newburgh would be allowed to remain, Adams was not to send any more.”

Good! Sane people learn from their mistakes. We'll see what New York does.

Hey NY, you guys could have had a competent mayor, but no, you had to vote for skin color over merit. So now you’re stuck with a mayor who only knows how to blame other people, not one who knows how to fix anything. But we all know you’ll do the same thing next time around because you people are incapable of learning a damn thing.

I Figure they’re busing them otherwise they’d be stealing cars and hyjacking people to get where they’re headed.

Well... that's a pretty elitist view of things.

Especially when your world view is this:

Eric exaggerates, hoping for a big check from 0’Biden’s Taxpayers so that he and his friends can pocket most of it while ‘taking care of the illegals’.

Nothing is more depressing that a black sanctuary city mayor whining about carrying the entire burden of the illegal alien invasion. He needs to think more positively and come up with solutions to enhance the illegals NYC experience. Many of these illegals have traveled thousands of miles to get the NYC experience and feel insulted by Mayor Adams stand offish attitude. Get with it Eric and embrace these new Democratic voters.
