Report: NYC Mayor Eric Adams to Cut Services for New Yorkers So Migrants Can Stay in Hotels Free of Charge
Breitbart ^ | 6-9-23 | JOHN BINDER

Posted on 06/11/2023 5:27:45 PM PDT by dynachrome

The cost of housing migrants is so extraordinary — an estimated $4.3 billion between April of 2022 and July 2024 — that Mayor Adams says he must cut city services to afford it. [Emphasis added]

To manage those expenses, Adams says the city is planning to trim services such as library hours, meals for senior citizens, re-entry programming for Rikers Island prisoners, and free, full-day care for three-year-olds. Last month, Adams also sought to unwind the city’s right to shelter, which entitles the migrants to housing within 24 hours of their arrival. [Emphasis added]

Data provided by the comptroller’s office shows 37 hotels contracting directly with the city’s Department of Homeless Services are being paid daily rates ranging from $55 a day to $385 per day, sometimes far in excess of what the hotel rooms might otherwise rent for.

I think Mayor Adams is a good guy, but he’s swimming in a sea of sharks, much like DJT.

I agree. He was a former cop. So he appears to be honest. Unfortunately, he's not that smart. So crooks are taking advantage of him.

If only American governments, using American taxpayer dollars, helped out Americans.

Let them form their own colony on Ward’s Island and let Adams be King of the Migrants! I’m sure they’ll be happy together.

“What action did they take to undo their “Sanctuary City” status?”

Friendly reminder that not a single sanctuary city or state ever was put to a public vote, it was all politicians doing this by themselves with zero public input

There are no such thing as “liberal states”

There are:

1. states where the democrats cheat a lot

2. states where the democrats don’t cheat as much but the Republican politicians act like democrats when they get in power while only paying lip service to their voters

Any states where Democrats routinely win are liberal states. Consequently, the voters there get Democrat policies. They need more illegals so they can learn from their errors. If they can’t learn, then let them become third world states and we would have to build a wall around each state.

What I learned from the 2020 election is that liberals are willing to choose martyrdom by knowingly voting in those that would kill them than give up the idea of voting for their salvation.

It’s a special kind of evil that liberals are under that they can vote in their oppressors, watch their oppressors and kill them and then vote for their oppressors immediately afterwards. They would do that over and over and over again, without limit.

Liberals will vote to sign their own death decrees, if they believe it will lead to their salvation.

The problem is your descriptions there equally applied to most conservatives before Trump came along.

Look how many conservatives kept voting for snakes like Bush, look at how John McCain kept getting elected over a over in Arizona, look how many conservatives embraced anti-American actions like the patriot act and the Iraq war, and when someone came along to criticize those things like Rand Paul or Pat Buchanan they were tarred and feathered.

So no it’s not just “liberals” who suffer from psychosis, it applies to most conservatives as well sadly, I mean look how many Republican morons in congress still love sending Zelensky billions of dollars and believe everything Biden says about the Ukraine conflict!

Those moron Republicans are voting against America, but they are not voting to destroy America in hope of self-salvation. Liberals are and that’s why liberals are more fervent about using all measures to win elections.

Liberals would gladly and enthusiastically kill you if they thought it would save them. This is most of their motivation in what they do.

Look how long conservatives have watched leftist news .

Obey leftist Insistence of using certain words.

Talk and think abouts leftist talking points.

Allow their communities to be taken over by leftists

Threaten God’s damnation in the afterlife to sooth their own lack of power

On the whole be Alinsky-ed continously.

“and that’s why liberals are more fervent about using all measures to win elections.”

I guess that is what I was initially saying, you have large areas that are “blue” but really are not blue because of fraud

Oregon always voted solid republican until mail-in voting was legalized in 1986 and then afterwards suddenly went democrat most the time. Did Oregon suddenly magically switch from R to D for no reason whatsoever, or do we use occams razor and realize fraud was the reason?

Same with California: California always voted solid republican until the Democrats did massive ballot harvesting in the 1990’s and then afterwards suddenly the state went democrat most the time. Did California suddenly magically switch from R to D for no reason whatsoever, or do we use occams razor and realize fraud was the reason?

I understand what you are saying, but you still have Democrat voters who walk in and vote with religious fervor for their destructors.

Until you get to the point where liberals will whole heartedly vote against Democrats, it isn’t going to change. We can fight to get mail-in voting out, and it will take time, but until then there has to be more pain to get those liberal minds changed.

I don’t say that liberals need to be dragged off to camps before they learn because I find pleasure in the idea, but it is what is needed. Liberals need to be brought down where they get dragged through the mud because of how they vote before we will see changes.

I don’t know if it isn’t too late, however.
