The arctic blast that has sent temperatures plunging across the country is threatening the safety of thousands of migrants who have been transported from the U.S. border to places like New York, Chicago and Denver, officials in those cities say.
Chicago
Mayor Brandon Johnson announced last week that he temporarily suspended the city’s 60-day limit on shelter stays for asylum seekers sent to the Windy City on buses paid for by Texas Gov. Greg Abbott due to dangerous subzero wind chills and near-blizzard conditions.
“We’re not evicting new arrivals out into the cold,” Johnson said Friday.
Approximately 650 migrants were set to be evicted on Tuesday, according to city officials. More than 14,000 are currently living in 28 city shelters. Since 2022, Abbott has sent tens of thousands of asylum seekers to Democratic-led cities like Chicago in an effort to divide voters and damage President Biden’s chances for reelection.
Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker sent a letter to Abbott pleading with him to stop sending migrants to Chicago during the dead of winter.
“The next few days are a threat to the families and children you are sending here,” Pritzker wrote.
“We refuse to play your political game of exploiting the most vulnerable for the sake of culture wars and talking points,” the governor added. “You seem to have no interest in working on bipartisan solutions to the border crisis because that would put an end to your cruel political game, but I am writing to you today hoping to appeal to your humanity.” Denver

This is the ‘northern’ hemisphere... Dress appropriately.
If they don’t like the cold, they can go back to the jungles they came from.
It’s still nice and warm around the equator. Go back there, dumbasses.
Exactly.. hopefully they do freeze to death and then we can say sanctuary cites are killing migrants.
Oh dear...
All those wee lil illegal aliens should flee South back to their own warm cozy home countries...
The caravan forms along Broadway, due to leave at 8pm ...
Hurry Hurry !!!
Migrants Biden welcomed in, freezing in sanctuary city tents?
Frankly, I’m all broke up about it, myself.
79 degrees in San Jose, Costa Rica today, 89 degrees in San Salvador. They can stay where they are if they don’t like it. Have absolutely no sympathy for any of them.
According to the weather map there was freezing rain north of Corpus Christi a day or so ago, so no, they can’t stay in Texas.
It’s a very comfortable 78 degrees in Caracas. Maybe they’d rather be there.
I know how you feel.
And take all the braindead lefties with them!

No actually its
The arctic blast that has sent temperatures plunging across the country is threatening the safety of thousands of illegal aliens who have traveled recklessly from places like Mexico, Somalia, Russia, China and other foreign countries to places like New York, Chicago and Denver..;
The word ‘transported’ belongs with the Jews of the Holocaust, only....
and the illegal aliens did not start their travels at our southern border...
Nobody made them come here...
Exclusively I suppose?
May all the criminal interlopers freeze their rear end back to their point of origin.
They just need to deal with it like the rest of us. They can always quit bitching and simply return whence they came.
Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker should offer them a free plane ride home.
Pritzker is playing the blame game. That is not conducive to cooperation. Clearly, it’s all politics to him. Nothing he says is sincere.
Welcome to the US, guys.
Every winter is pretty much the same. If you don’t like it, go home.
Go home.
Now.
