New York City Mayor Eric Adams used taxpayer funds to send migrants to red states including Texas and Florida with some even being sent as far as South America and China despite trashing Republican governors for sending them to the Big Apple. Adams, a Democrat, spent about $50,000 of the city's money to send 114 migrant households elsewhere in the world as the city is overrun with asylum seekers in the tens of thousands. A total of 28 families were sent to Florida with 14 being sent to Texas, a few were sent to Colombia and one family to China....

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...

On Monday’s broadcast of ABC’s “GMA3,” Denver Mayor Michael Hancock stated that the city has received a record influx of migrants into the city since December that is financially “unsustainable” without more help from the federal government, and stated that the migrants that have been recently sent to the city by Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) “probably would have ended up in Denver” anyway.

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott announced this week that he organized for a bus to bring about 40 immigrants north to Denver, Colorado, where they were left near a park, as part of an ongoing plan to move more migrants to the city, according to the Houston Chronicle. Abbott recently announced that Texas has relocated more than 18,500 people as part of his efforts to send migrants who have been processed at the border to northern cities. The governor claimed in an interview earlier this month that these "are the chosen cities by the migrants themselves. Every one of these migrants...

The city of New York has been struggling to contain the mass influx of illegal immigrants that are overwhelming the city's limited resources, and Mayor Eric Adams (D) is not being transparent on where they will be housed as he refuses to hold a public hearing on the issue. On Tuesday, Mayor Adams said that the crisis at the US-Mexico border caused by the Biden administration's lax immigration policies has had a significant impact on the city of New York, calling it a "burden" for New Yorkers, Fox News reports. "We are carrying this entire burden. This national problem is...

Mayor Eric Adams took another shot at the White House over the ongoing migrant crisis Tuesday, implying President Biden was nowhere to be found. “Where the heck is the president of the United States?” Fox 5 “Good Day New York” co-host Rosanna Scotto asked Hizzoner during an interview. “That is a good question,” the mayor responded. “I think we all should be asking, ‘Why is this happening to a city that was turning itself around and will continue to do so?’ “This should not be happening to New York City, Chicago, Los Angeles and the other big northern cities,” Adams...

Mayor Lori Lightfoot (D) has declared a state of emergency for the sanctuary city of Chicago, Illinois, stating that the city has hit a “breaking point” and is “full” due to illegal immigration flows arriving from the United States-Mexico border. Since August 2022, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) has bused more than 8,000 border crossers and illegal aliens to Chicago to help save his state’s taxpayers billions in social and economic costs associated with illegal immigration.

NYC Mayor Eric Adams is the ultimate Democrat hypocrite. He talks a good game on running New York City as a sanctuary city but when he is called upon to welcome those he previously said he would happily welcome, he changes his tune. Suddenly he is full of whiny outrage that he is expected to care for those he said he would welcome with open arms. He has been complaining that the federal government is not stepping up and paying the city’s expenses that the migrants cost them for shelter and food and medical care. He has been putting them...

As thousands of migrants pour across the US border daily, El Paso says it is ready to start busing asylum seekers out — and New York is set to be a top destination. The Texas city is straining under the weight of over 1,000 people daily handing themselves over to border agents, with its processing centers oversubscribed and migrants camping out on its streets.

@disclosetv NEW - Outgoing Mayor Lori Lightfoot pleads with Texas Gov. Abbott to stop sending migrants to the sanctuary city of Chicago, calling it "dangerous and inhumane."

Last month, New York City’s Mayor Eric Adams was pleading with Colorado’s Governor Jared Polis to stop busing migrants to New York City. And then Adams began busing migrants to Canada. Now Quebec’s Premier Francois Legault is warning Adams to stop doing it.Since Texas and Arizona’s GOP governors first began busing migrants to New York City, D.C. and Chicago, and since Florida’s Gov DeSantis made national headlines by flying migrants to Martha’s Vineyard, Democrats have decided that they can bus migrants too.While Republicans like Abbott and DeSantis were accused of cruelty for dumping migrants elsewhere, Colorado Gov. Polis claimed that,...

New York Mayor Eric Adams has accused Colorado's Democrat governor of launching an 'unfair' plan to send an influx of migrants to the Big Apple. Jared Polis, Colorado's Dem governor, called the NYC mayor on Monday night to inform him large numbers of migrants would be transported to the city. Adams publicly criticized the plan on Tuesday morning and insisted New York has taken its fair share of migrants, adding: 'There's no more room at the inn.' The row marks a rare confrontation between two senior Democrats over the issue of migrants who are crossing the Mexican border into the...

Former Trump White House chief strategist Steve Bannon railed against Governor Greg Abbott on Thursday, calling the Texas Republican "gutless" for busing migrants to Washington, D.C., in below-freezing temperatures on Christmas Eve. Abbott has come under fire in recent months over the Lone Star State's practice of redirecting asylum-seekers and undocumented immigrants to cities run by Democrats. Liberals have long blasted the move as a "cruel" act of political theater, but the governor is now receiving criticism from some within his own party. Bannon, a longtime ally of former President Donald Trump, slammed Abbott on Thursday in a post on...

CHICAGO — As migrants continue to be bused into the city, advocacy groups that have been working with the undocumented community say the city still has to fill many structural holes to support and sustain not only the new arrivals but also the existing undocumented community. Since August, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott has sent more than 2,500 migrants to Chicago. While city and state leaders initiated a rapid response to situate the migrants, immigration activists and organizations still feel that efforts to shore up social services amount to emergency triage, not long-term solutions. The city has nearly 829,000 noncitizens who...

The NYPD pounced on buses bringing border-crossers to the Big Apple from Texas on Friday — part of a desperate effort to slow the overwhelming flow of more than 17,000 migrants that spurred Mayor Adams’ state-of-emergency declaration, according to sources. The Post saw a team of NYPD Highway Patrol officers waiting near the Port Authority pulling over four buses that had just dropped off dozens of migrants starting at around 6:15a.m. They then spent around an hour meticulously searching each bus for any possible infractions, including logbooks, tire treads, fluid levels and even windshield wiper placement. Some of the drivers...

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott defiantly declared Friday that he will continue to ship migrants from the southern border to the Big Apple — as Mayor Eric Adams issued a state of emergency over the flood of asylum-seekers. “Sanctuary cities like New York City experience a FRACTION of what Texas border communities face every day,” Abbott seethed on Twitter. “We’ll continue busing migrants to NYC, DC, & Chicago to relieve our overwhelmed border towns until [President] Biden does his job to secure the border.”

Gov. Greg Abbott isn’t flinching amid Democratic criticism of his busing program that has now sent about 12,000 migrants who have crossed the border in Texas north to cities run by Democratic mayors. On Monday, another bus dropped off about 50 migrants in front of Vice President Kamala Harris’ residence in Washington, D.C. NBC News reported that many of the migrants said they are Venezuelans. Washington has received the bulk of Abbott’s busing project, which is part of the governor's wider Operation Lone Star border security program. More than 8,200 migrants have been bused to the nation's capital, and about...

New York City Mayor Eric Adams (D) says he is “in conversations” with a cruise line to house arriving border crossers and illegal aliens, sent on migrant buses from Texas, on a ship off the coast of the city. Last month, reports circulated that Adams was considering housing thousands of newly arrived border crossers and illegal aliens on a Norwegian cruise line ship as part of a broader effort by the city to deal with a steady flow of migrant buses sent by Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R).

Officials representing Colorado towns with elite ski resorts are worried they may be the next spot where Republican governors bus or fly border crossers and illegal aliens. For months, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) and Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey (R) have been busing thousands of border crossers and illegal aliens to sanctuary cities like New York City, New York, Washington, D.C., and Chicago, Illinois.

The council two weeks ago approved a $2 million on-call bus services contract, which is proving insufficient as the city already shelled out $1.8 million for 81 charter bus departures as of September 21. The bus money, just like the $17,790 the city is spending every night in hotel rooms and the 22,245 meals served to migrants so far, is coming from the city's general fund. In addition, the city has committed 125 municipal employees to address the crisis, including 50 who are “embedded” at immigrant advocacy nonprofits that cannot find enough volunteers. The city’s total expenses on migrants stand...
