Mayor Eric Adams to New Yorkers: The illegal migrant crisis is coming “to a neighborhood near you”

You may have seen pictures or video of a very large group of illegal aliens outside the Roosevelt Hotel in Manhattan. Some were trying to push their way into the hotel, some decided to camp-out on the sidewalk outside. It wasn’t a good look.

Some are sleeping in air-conditioned vans until space in shelters opens up.

Hold up. They were also put in airconditioned beautiful vans to sleep in. https://t.co/yvMToGb0St

Joe Biden lets them stay in the United States so they make their way to sanctuary cities. New York City is a popular destination. Mayor Adams is proud to lead a sanctuary city. No one should feel sorry for Adams and his trouble finding shelter for the illegal aliens. He asked for this. He virtue-signaled about it as though he is someone special. Karma’s a bitch.

Adams should be embarrassed at what a whiner he sounds like. The number of illegal aliens making their way to NYC from the southern border is miniscule compared to the humanitarian crisis that Texas deals with every day. Adams traveled to Washington, D.C. and met with DHS Secretary Mayorkas last week. Mayorkas promised to send a staffer to NYC to help with the surge. The total number of illegal aliens in city shelters is currently listed as 56,000. Some in the New York delegation, such as Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries were also in the meeting which is reported to have lasted more than an hour. The liaison is supposed to strengthen communication between City Hall and the Biden administration.

I’m not sure that communication is the problem. The problem is that the Biden administration just ignores requests for help and assistance with the illegal aliens. Mayorkas carries out Biden’s orders. Not only are illegal aliens allowed to remain in the United States as their asylum applications are processed but the Biden administration wants work permits for them to be expediated.

“Not only did we discuss the city’s federal funding needs, we also re-emphasized how crucial it is to expedite pathways to work authorization for those who are arriving and are already here,” the spokesperson said.

“Asylum seekers arriving to our country are seeking to build the American Dream, so it’s time we finally give them a shot at it.”

Sure, everyone would like to build the American Dream but the fact is that current immigration law doesn’t allow for asylum due to financial reasons – migrants aren’t granted asylum just to pursue a good-paying job. But, we all know that Biden wants an open border and floods of illegal migrants to populate the United States and then eventually vote for Democrats.

So, by Monday Adams was sounding the alarm to New Yorkers. There are 91,000 people seeking shelter who may make their way to neighborhoods around the city.

“Eventually this is going to come to a neighborhood near you, and it is — 91,000 people,” Adams told reporters.

“We need to localize this madness,” he said without elaborating, including when asked whether that included using outdoor spaces such as parks to house the migrants.

“We have to figure out a way of how we don’t have what’s in other municipalities, where you have tent cities all over the city,” Adams said. “We have to figure out how we’re going to locate the lives of the inevitable, that there’s no more room indoors, and we have to figure that out, and that’s what I’ve got the team working on right now.

Those cooling buses aren’t sustainable, you know. And, all those illegal aliens hanging around on the sidewalk outside The Roosevelt Hotel is bad for the businesses around it. Do tell, Mr. Mayor. After he ranted that the illegal aliens need to be able to work, he did say, “We need to control the border.” Funny how now he’s talking about that.

City Hall is legally obligated to provide beds for them under the decades-old “right to shelter” court settlements.

Pass the popcorn. Biden is pissing off fellow Democrats who expect more from him. Are they new here? Why would anyone expect Biden to do the right thing and secure the border and provide financial assistance to cities?

Angry lawmakers rallied outside of City Hall shortly after Adams’ press conference Monday to push Biden.

“All we’re asking is for the federal government to finally show up,” said Brooklyn Borough President Antonio Reynoso.

Good luck with that.

Does our open border anger you as much as it does me? Probably, I would guess. Our readers know that without a secure border, we have no country. You can help us continue to fight the good fight against Biden’s leftist agenda. Besides showing your support by coming here and joining in the conversation about current events, you can take it to the next level and consider joining our VIP or VIP Gold program. If you go HERE, you can find a program for you and save a little money by using the code SAVEAMERICA. That will get you 50% off right now. We can all use a discount here and there as we cope with Bidenflation, right? Thank you for your support. We all appreciate it very much.

Next busload should be at his door.

They didn’t give 2 s**ts when it overwhelmed the west coast. They didn’t care when it hit the Midwest, but now the money people on the east coast are alarmed. What a joke.

There’s a lawn at Gracie Mansion.

Adams peeps could sleep there in shifts, like crews on a Submarine.

[wildcard_redneck]

You have been DEI’d. Enjoy the robberies, beatings, and rapes.

[bgill]

Welcome to what the states along the border have had to put up with for decades. Where’s my tiny violin?

[frank ballenger]

Posters here who said the tent cities in shopping districts and the rows of sleeping and defecating homeless people in San Francisco and other cities were going to spread across the country turned out to be right, of course.

Next prediction: the drug addicts and illegals allowed to live in good hotels are not going to turn into future Ward Cleaver type responsible taxpayers.

[Bob434]

adams will likely send them to conservative districts/towns- usually upstate way away from liberal NY

[Mears]

Adams can’t send them anywhere .

…..

[joma89]

And I trust democrat voting new yorkers suffer.

[George J. Jetso]

Martha’s Vineyard was a sanctuary city until the migrants showed up. Same for NYC it sounds good on paper until the people show up. 🤣😂🤣🤣

[Karliner]

It’s a sanctuary state. I hope our California illegals eat at the French Laundry with Newsom.

This reminds me of when Mexico city got so bad( worse now) where all middle class needed to watch their children because of kidnappings. Also Venezuela.

There’s a person in FReeperville that has been warning for over 15 years. It’s here. And Trump is being made to be a clown.

Will we have a choice in 2024? Will we have a country? They need to control the money.

[bigbob]

I like this. Keep the busses heading to NYC.

[Bob434]

or hochul or whoever- someone sure as heck is sending them upstate!

[FLNittany]

This wash/rinse/repeat insane mayor of NY must have stepped in something on the sidewalk recently. Otherwise, why would he care?

[ProtectOurFreedom]

Maybe a lot of these new Americans can get jobs at Yellow Freight. Lots of jobs to go around.

Isn’t Libtardism wonderful?,

FTA -—— The Biden administration wants work permits for illegals to be expedited. “Asylum seekers are seeking to build the American Dream, so it’s time we finally give them a shot at it.”

Sure, everyone would like to build the American Dream but the fact is that current immigration law doesn’t allow for asylum due to financial reasons – migrants aren’t granted asylum just to pursue a good-paying job.

REALITY CHECK-—Biden wants an open border and floods of illegal migrants to populate the United States and to vote for Democrats

[chris haney]

Don’t understand, he proclaimed that he was governing a sanctuary city, nothing about the surrounding areas

[beaversmom]

“I came to New York City because I thought there would be help,” Saleh said. “I wish I didn’t come to New York.”

I’ve heard they are very hospitable in Martha’s Vineyard. Don’t the Obamas have a big, roomy home there?
