NYC Mayor Eric Adams Says Illegal Immigrants Should be Sent to Cities ‘Throughout the Entire Country’
Townhall ^ | 05/22/2023 | Madeline Leesman

Democrat New York City Mayor Eric Adams said in an interview this week that illegal immigrants who enter the United States at the southern border should be sent to every city “throughout the entire country.”

Adams made the remarks on CBS’s “Face the Nation” program on Sunday.

Adams made the remarks on CBS’s “Face the Nation” program on Sunday. In the segment, the mayor discussed how illegal immigrants at the U.S.-Mexico border have been sent to the city for months at the direction of GOP Texas Gov. Greg Abbott. Recently, Adams began sitting migrants outside of the city to other parts of the state.

“We’ve spent over a billion dollars on the migrants. We're projected to spend close to $4.3 billion dollars, if not more. This estimate was based on a number of migrants coming to the city and those numbers have clearly increased. We received, in several days last week alone, over 900 migrants on days. Two weeks ago, approximately 4,200 in one week. When you look at the price tag, $30 million dollars comes nowhere near for what this city is paying for a national problem,” Adams said of the federal help the city has received to help handle the migrant crisis.

“Would it be more helpful if it was the federal government directing where migrants are moved to throughout the United States instead of you as New York City’s mayor, trying to figure out where you can send them within your state?” host Margaret Brennan asked.

“Yes it would. We have 108,000 cities, villages, towns. If everyone takes a small portion of it, and if it’s coordinated at the border to ensure that those who are coming here to this country, in a lawful manner is actually moved throughout the entire country, it is not a burden on one city,” Adams said.

Last fall, Townhall reported how Adams claimed that the influx of migrants being sent on buses to the Big Apple could cost the city at least $1 billion.

“This is a humanitarian crisis that started with violence and instability in South America, and it’s being accelerated by American political dynamics,” Adams said at the time.

“This crisis is not of our own making,” Adams claimed, adding that “but one that will affect everyone in this city and in the months ahead.”

Tell them that as of June 1 all illegals and asylum seekers inside the USA will be reclassified as ‘non-persons’ and cannot be victims of crime or sickness.
Those roads go both ways.

Illegals will be sent to all democrat american cities where they will be signed up to vote in 2024. Their ballots will be harvested without any republican poll watcher oversight.

Actually they are everywhere. Even in places where you wouldn’t expect them to be.

Go to Scottsboro, Alabama and see who is working in all the rock quarries and mines.

Adams mounting typical Dem talking points, basically….I love immigrant s as long as they do t live by me and cause my taxes to go up.

And the school tax tsunami is on the way and unstoppable.

Illegal Immigrants Should be Sent BACK HOME TO THEIR OWN COUNTRY


We should take a page out of Ike’s book. Load em all up on cargo ships and deliver them to the very southern most point of Mexico.

Make it financially impossible to cross again anytime soon.

There’s video floating around of a guy doing those ‘on the street’ interviews. He’s in the UK at a pro-immigration rally/parade/whatever

He starts asking the participants if they can take some in. Oddly, they all say they rent or don’t have the room.

Same thing has been done in Sweden(?) and somewhere in Canada. All the same answers and excuses. Almost if they’re all reading from a script.

Surprise, surprise. But it makes them feel so good and kind to say they are a sanctuary city!

Sounds like Mayor Adams is a racist xenophobe and doesn’t want illegal brown people in his sanctuary city.

You want the border open then accept them in your city.

Adams is aiding and abetting criminal aliens. This is against the law and in a lawful country should be prosecuted by our courts and officials and not aided and abetted by them.

Fat chance of that though. This is no longer a lawful country, so we'll just send them around the countryside and pay for the privilege though our taxes and increased crime and chaos by illegal foreigners.

America was once a nice place to live instead of being an illegal alien dumping ground taken advantage of by criminal cartels and politicians.

It's so tiring not to see capital punishment imposed on open borders traitors. And there should be crowds of celebrators rivaling those flocked around the Florida State Prison for Bundy's

Yes and use Biden’s free student loan money to pay for the air line costs.
