Queen pols are fuming that the borough is being overloaded with rowdy migrants – and are calling for other Big Apple neighborhoods to take their fair share of asylum seekers.

Is this AOC’s district?

“Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses...”

All 3 are domestic enemies of the USA as far as I’m concerned.
AMEN......
