The NYPD pounced on buses bringing border-crossers to the Big Apple from Texas on Friday — part of a desperate effort to slow the overwhelming flow of more than 17,000 migrants that spurred Mayor Adams’ state-of-emergency declaration, according to sources.
The Post saw a team of NYPD Highway Patrol officers waiting near the Port Authority pulling over four buses that had just dropped off dozens of migrants starting at around 6:15a.m.
They then spent around an hour meticulously searching each bus for any possible infractions, including logbooks, tire treads, fluid levels and even windshield wiper placement.
Some of the drivers were given court appearance tickets and allowed to drive off.
However, sources told The Post that the hope was to find excuses to take the buses off the road to complicate the mass ferrying of migrants from Republican border cities.
“Nothing is too minor to take them out of service,” one law enforcement source told The Post of Friday’s operation, which is expected to continue every day next week.
“The mayor is desperate,” the source said, insisting it was directly ordered by Adams.
“Are we a sanctuary city or not?” the source asked of the apparent contradiction of clamping down on arrivals while publicly signaling a warm welcome.
Still, some of the stopped drivers insisted that the crackdown would not scare off the companies sending them.
“I don’t care if the NYPD inspects us, we’ll keep making this trip because the money’s too good,” one of the drivers, who only gave the name Misael, said after getting four pink court-appearance tickets, including one for a loose seat.
“I’m with [Texas Gov.] Greg Abbott all the way. I don’t want migrants in my state. If [President] Biden wants the borders open, the Democrat states can take them,” insisted the Dallas-based driver.

New Yawk City is a sanctuary boarder town. They need to quit all their bitchin’ about the boarders we’re sending ‘em.
Small price to pay petty little bitches.
Funny. Reminds me to what excruciating detail this abominable administration is trying to implicate Trump. Maybe he has overdue library materials from high school?
No person is illegal.
Treads on tires worn? Illegal.
Go back home.
New York City is being forced to bear far more than its fair share of a national crisis caused by political motivations. Join me at City Hall to talk about asylum seekers. https://t.co/55IkEkDghE— Mayor Eric Adams (@NYCMayor) October 7, 2022
Sanctuary cities like New York City experience a FRACTION of what Texas border communities face every day.
We'll continue busing migrants to NYC, DC, & Chicago to relieve our overwhelmed border towns until Biden does his job to secure the border.https://t.co/fVNuf6nLAm— Greg Abbott (@GregAbbott_TX) October 7, 2022
Drop them outside the city! Dump them in Portland! They don’t have cops!
The most corrupt Dirty Coppers on the planet since Tammany Hall, running a Revenue Operation while their citizens are Murdered, Raped and Robbed at the highest rate in history.
What’s the reasonable cause to stop and search the vehicle? None other than harassing them. Probably a lawsuit would be in order to stop the practice and also embarrass the mayor and governor who put them up to doing it
NYPD was once the one of the most respected police forces in the country. Now theyre woke henchmen for their cabal masters.
Adams has committed the same crime as biden. He has used law enforcement against his enemies.
At one time the ACLU fought selective enforcement. Now it supports it, as long as it targets normal people.
I haven’t thought about Roscoe P Coltrane in a long time...
Where’s Flash?...
When they go this "small", they are losing BIG.
Just drop them off across the river in Jersey. They can find their away across to NY.
Sounds like racial profiling!
The DOJ will surely jump all over this.
