During a portion of an interview with CNBC that was recorded in February and aired on Thursday’s “Cities of Success,” Denver Mayor Mike Johnston responded to a question on if the city was too open to migrants and too generous by stating that “it’s a balance. We want to be a welcoming city” but doing that without federal help “requires shared sacrifice, it requires compromise. So, we are both making cuts to city budgets to meet this financial need, and we are making cuts to the amount of services we can provide to the migrants that arrive and to the number of folks that we can serve.”
Johnston said that the number of migrants that came to the city was “much higher than what we thought. I will say, what we’re very proud of is, like other problems, we’ve taken this on, we’ve figured out an entrepreneurial approach, and we’ve figured out a path to solve it. Of the 40,000 migrants who have arrived in this city, as of tonight, I have a regular count, we have about 40 to 45 migrants total that are unsheltered tonight. That means 99.9% of those 40,000 have come through, gotten connected to services, housing, work, and made it successfully. So, we figured out how to run this machine, how to welcome people, get them connected to legal clinics, provide them wrap-around resources. To do that well just requires resources, and so, our challenge is, we can do it well with federal help, we can do it well with more work authorization, we can do it well with a coordinated plan for entry. Without any of those three, the work becomes tougher. But we’ve now doubled down, assuming there’s no federal help coming, and we’re going to figure it out on our own.

Denver is almost dead. Stay away from any downtown area.
Get Out Of Denver
OK, Mr. Mayor.
You first.
Well, of course. These commie trash descend from Democrats — who are the only ones who owned slaves and pine for its return.
As to sharing with criminals, F@#$% you!
Colorado Ping ( Let me know if you wish to be added or removed from the list.)
THE MAYOR & OTHERS are FORCING THEIR OPINIONS ON OTHER PEOPLE’S BUDGETS.
You could tell by watching Johnston’s campaign ad’s that he’s a woke fool who is going to take Denver even farther down the road to ruin. I’ve lived in Colorado for 37 years, and used to go to Denver from time to time. Now I avoid the place like the plague. It’s like a combination of Chicago and San Francisco.
Great, so 40,000 showed up and they fed and houses 99.9% of them. That great. Im sure another 40,000 wont show up next month...
I wonder how much my Hillary-voting lib sister and her husband are willing to sacrifice? They’re right there in Golden. Basically a burb of Denver.
Yep. F that.
Just wait until you are required to hous a family by law or whatever Bolshevik method they think of in clear violation of quartering of federal criminals. Break out the guns, it’s coming.
I’m pretty sure our Governor Abbott will be happy to oblige.
You want it, you got it, you KEEP it. Not my circus, not my monkeys; you feed them on your own.

BTTT
I just looked it up. Mayor Salary for Denver is $205,990.58
He doesn’t have a ‘Husband’: Wife and three children
His wife is Assistant (they call it Deputy) District Attorney. She pulls in about $100,000 a year. So between them they enjoy the taxpayers largess of over $300.000 a year.
A typical subdivision house in the Denver area is approaching a Mil so a $300K income is maybe slightly above middle class. but certainly not lavish by any stretch.
It’s more than that. I read the other day that we’re talking 750,000 illegals. I wasn’t 100% sure whether it was Colorado in general or just Denver.
Yeah. You want to go through my pockets to solve it. Great plan.
