New York City Mayor Says He Has to Go to Italy to Solve Migrant Problem
Newsweak ^ | May 10, 2024 | Matthew Impelli

New York City Mayor Eric Adams announced this week that he's traveling to Italy in hopes of solving the migrant problem in his own city.

"I'm traveling to Rome because the solutions to the problems facing our city, country and planet must be solved together—by sharing ideas and strategies," Adams wrote in a post on X, formerly Twitter. "We will be talking infrastructure, climate change, the asylum seeker crisis and so much more."

Adams also shared a video in the post where he is seen speaking about his trip to Italy and plans to meet with Pope Francis.

"Headed to Italy, part of an overall finding our common grounds, how we deal with migrants, asylum seekers," Adams said in the video. "How we deal with affordable housing, our economy, sustainability. Just some important issues and the most significant moment for me is the opportunity to meet our holy father, the Pope, his holiness. And this is the start of a journey."

The comments by Adams about migrants come as New York City has seen thousands of migrants traveling to the city in hope of asylum after crossing the U.S.-Mexico border.

Since last spring, the city has taken in more than 175,000 migrants. Immigration remains a major political issue ahead of the 2024 presidential election, amid heightened levels of migrant border crossings.

As usual, Eric makes no sense, but I think he's going to Italy to get away from NYC - on the taxpayers' dime, of course.

As he dines on the finest Italian cuisine, drinks their best wine, their best desserts. While getting a grand tour of the best sights with security. And he will come back with all of the solutions as to how to save N.Y. B.S. Tell that to the pizzeria owners who have wood or charcoal burning ovens and make the best pizza in the world!! They are being strangled!!

What a total loser douchebag.

Note well - whenever some politician starts talking about fine-tuning the weather 100 years from now, it is axiomatic they haven’t been doing their job, they reject anything they should be doing, and they aren’t going to start now.

He needs advice??? How about simply enforcing the law? They are not allowed to legally be here. They are not allowed legally to collect welfare or use our schools or have a job or rent an apartment. Section 1324 title 8 makes it a federal felony to ENCOURAGE illegals to live here. Get on the phone and tell Joe the Vegetable to enforce section 1324.

Even Adams will not want to hear the Pope’s advice.

The well has gone dry.

Eric is going to go learn from white folk “colonists” how to stem illegal immigration.

Could go to El Paso for an upclose look but they aren’t a tourist destination.

He needs to go to Italy to learn from Meloni how to talk about how bad the immigrant crisis is, not do anything, then talk about how you are a Christian as a diversion.

Oh... Adams is going to see the Pope, so there we are.

ohhh, he makes a lot of sense . . . . his city is dead and dying more each day and like Chicagoans, the populace is getting pretty pissed at being over run with vermin, polio, smallpox, measles, etc. . . . . . and the kids are being "educated" in our schools right next too our American, vaccinated kids.

Democrat is a criminal syndicate.

biden is an unAmerican, nazi pedophile and should be separated from population.

Stupid ass. You should put the Italy trip off until it’s Christmas shopping time. Idiot.
