'The city we knew, we're about to lose': Eric Adams says New York City's migrant crisis will DESTROY the Big Apple as he warns that 10,000 illegal asylum seekers arriving EVERY month will flood EACH of the five boroughs
Daily Mail ^ | 9/07/23 | Will Potter

New York City Mayor Eric Adams has torn into the migrant crisis crippling the Big Apple - which he warned will 'destroy' the city without urgent action.

Speaking to furious residents at a town hall meeting on Wednesday, he admitted he doesn't see a solution to the problem as he slammed the lack of help from Joe Biden.

'Let me tell you something, New Yorkers. Never in my life have I had a problem that I did not see an ending to. I don't see an ending to this,' he conceded. 'This issue will destroy New York City. Destroy New York City.'

The former top cop grew emotional as he talked about buses of migrants arriving on a near-daily basis, with over 10,000 arriving every month. Upwards of 110,000 are littered across the metro, and Adams' office has estimated the issue will cost New York City $12billion over three years.

Authorities are concerned that without an exit ramp, the situation could soon reach boiling point as furious protestors have clashed on the streets of the Five Boroughs while more and more migrants are left homeless by the limited space.

The migrant crisis has plagued Adams' time as mayor since he took office in January 2022, and the former police officer warned Wednesday the problem is only getting worse.

'We're getting 10,000 migrants a month,' he said. 'Now we're getting people from all over the globe have made their minds up that they're going to come through the southern part of the border and come into New York City.'

The city has a legal obligation to give shelter to those to make their way to the metro, and Adams has desperately turned to a variety of city landmarks, makeshift shelters and temporary housing as short-term solutions.

And yet, Eric Adams had and continues to have zero empathy for the tiny border towns that are OVER-RUN by 200,000+ criminal, illegal aliens EVERY MONTH because he believes that's their problem.

EFFFFF U Eric Adams. Same for every blue big city mayor who declares themselves "sanctuary cities" while not embracing the flood of illegals to their cities. Hypocrites.

Adams finally wears the cape of Mayor of New Jack City. It has finally happened.Thank you Brandon!

All Adams had to do was refuse to take the aliens into the city.BUt he is circumscibed by his own rascism narrative from protecting New York. Its the fall of Rome all over again.

Watch the same happen all across America in Dem run from New Jack City to Siscanfranso.

NO wonder Trump is picking up black voters in an avalanche. One can see why.And Trump is their only hope. Red Staters? Stock up on ammo.

They need to be sent back to their respective countries...

We are under no obligation to send them back to their respective countries. We can send them to any country that also sent illegal alien invaders, regardless of what language they speak and where the country is located.

The wholesale and long standing system of voter fraud will forever mask voters’ true ‘will’.

Until/unless the fraud is shut down, no election (no matter WHO wins) can be trusted as a representation of voters’ will.

“ doesn’t see a solution to the problem as he slammed the lack of help from Joe Biden.”

Maybe politicians in his state should indict Joe Biden instead of Trump?

NYC is a lost cause, we might as well concentrate and contain the problems. With a wall perhaps?

It’s intentional at the national policy level but I doubt they were expecting NYC to get trashed like this.

People would be outraged at what’s happening in NYC if the media would give it due coverage.

The problem is that the entrenched Black citizenry of NYC is inferior to the influx of young and hardworking citizens from the south. The Blacks will suffer

Hmmm, open borders advertised, free lodging, school, medical in NYC with no threat of arrest in a sanctuary city. And people are going there - wow, didn't see that coming. Nobody could have predicted that

Aw, that's sad.

Adams and his fellow idiot brother, along with all those lawfaring racist AGs and all other Democrats in NY and elsewhere, are, always have been, and always will be, unfit for office.
