New York City mayor to issue executive order allowing ICE agents into Rikers Island

New York City's Democratic Mayor Eric Adams announced on Thursday he will issue an executive order that will allow federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents into Rikers Island to assist in criminal investigations of illegal migrants.

The mayor's announcement comes after he met with President Donald Trump's border czar Tom Homan, where the pair also reportedly discussed ways to embed local New York police detectives into federal task forces investigating gangs and criminal activities, according to the New York Times.

Homan confirmed that the mayor committed to helping restore a federal presence in Rikers Island prison. But based on a 2014 Sanctuary law, ICE agents are banned from the prison.

However, according to The Times, Adams has found a loophole that will allow him to let them in. A provision in one of the 2014 laws allows him to issue an executive order to allow such access “for purposes unrelated to the enforcement of civil immigration laws.”

Maybe Trump's plan is to drive the "resistance" judges to the point of exhaustion. A lawsuit will be filed against Trump and Adams by daylight tomorrow.

I understand NYPD is also rounding up illegal aliens at tonight's regularly scheduled street protest. Let's see how that goes.

“President Trump and the Mayor have come to an understanding.”

Indeed.

It’s a win-win. PDJT gets the illegal criminals, and Eric gets rid of some prison overcrowding.

Adams also gets a bit of payback for the Biden administration harassing him.

Disclaimer: I don’t know how corrupt Adams really is. But he’s still in office. And the Biden folks are all checking the wants ads, looking for work.

President Trump made Mayor Eric Adams an offer he can’t refuse. “Tish” and Princess Kathy are all stampy feet.

I've been noticing that scenario within the last week.

Also, if they go overboard, ordinary people will begin to notice, and the old Gaslight Media standby of "A federal judge today ruled..." won't cut it any more.

Names will start getting tacked on to the obstructing black-robed clowns.
