New York City’s homeless shelters are being overrun with asylum-seeking migrants as the immigration crisis at the southern border worsens—with nearly 3,000 arriving in recent weeks, Mayor Eric Adams warned Monday. Adams called on President Biden to send “additional federal resources immediately” so the city can handle the overflow. “If we do not get these urgently needed resources, we may struggle to provide the proper level of support our clients deserve, while also facing challenges as we serve both a rapidly growing shelter population and new clients who are seeking asylum,” Adams said in a prepared statement. Adams said the illegal immigrants included families “arriving on buses

Comments:

The communists insist that USA is a nation of immigrants (who by law must not be of White European origin), and the Marxist placard on the Statue of Liberty says to send us your tired and your poor, and your huddled masses waiting to go on welfare and destroy what remains of our tattered social fabric.

The teeming, infested underbelly of NYC will absorb myriad new homeless illegals with nary an unconcerned burp. Yet Adams comes begging for more money. Sounds suspiciously like 'please don't throw me in the briar patch'. Aren't these invaders supposed to have sponsors and are banned from federal funds?

What the heck did they think was going to happen? Just like pushing electric cars on everybody, this too was poorly planned. Typical liberals - thinking only with emotions! The problem can be easily solved. ROund them up and send them back. They are here illegally, no matter how you look at it. Our store shelves are bare, and supplies are limited this is really a smart time to be bringing in thousands of more people. Liberals are not too smart

Adams said the added migrant burden included families “arriving on buses sent by the Texas and Arizona governments” but in other cases, he said, “it appears that individuals are being sent by the federal government.” They're not coming from Texas and Arizona Eric.

There are well over seven billion people now living in undeveloped and underdeveloped countries around the world. Biden and the leftist, progressive, and socialist Democrats have been essentially saying that any number of those billions of people must be allowed into the USA indefinitely once they show up and claim they wish to apply for asylum in the USA. There is only one reason for such a political stance that that is to overwhelm the current majority population of the USA with a massive coalition of foreign and domestic minority groups that fit within the ethnic and racial categories of Democrat identity politics, and transform the USA into a new minority majority country. As the plan goes the Democrats plan to institute a series of “path to citizenship” amnesties that will culminate by transforming today’s illegal aliens into massive numbers of “New American” Democrat supporters and voters to keep the socialist Democrats in permanent political power and thus able to transform the USA into some yet undetermined form of socialist utopia. All that is being done in complete violation of the Immigration laws. The federal government does not have the manpower and resources to manage all the millions of illegal aliens once the Biden crew places or seeds them in localities throughout the USA, that task will fall upon cities and towns that will have to provide all those illegal aliens, housing, food, and schooling. Since most illegal aliens have only finished about six years or less of schooling in their home countries and cannot speak more than rudimentary English, a major shock will come to those communities when eighteen or nineteen year old illegal alien boys are placed in the lower grades in the public schools where the American boys and girls are twelve or thirteen years old. How will that work out? Ask Biden!

Some of the migrants who Mayor Eric Adams says are overloading the city’s homeless shelters have no ties to the Big Apple—but were still directed here by President Biden’s administration, The Post has learned. Outside a city Department of Homeless Services intake center in The Bronx, Veronica Prada, 28, said Wednesday that she, her husband and their four kids left their native Venezuela on April 26 and crossed the US-Mexico border into San Antonio, Texas, on July 11. They were greeted by Border Patrol agents who took them and other migrants to a processing facility where immigration officials gave the family information on how to apply for asylum

Senate lawmakers want the military to end a program created after the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol to eliminate White nationalists and other extremists from its ranks. The language calling for an end to the effort is contained in a report accompanying the Senate’s annual defense policy bill, and it cites a Pentagon analysis showing that the military has spent hundreds of thousands of dollars and devoted millions of hours searching for extremism in its service branches, even though it is exceedingly uncommon. “The committee believes that spending additional time and resources to combat exceptionally rare instances of extremism in the military is an inappropriate use

Children up to four years old were just as likely to die from flu or a stroke as COVID-19 during the final months of 2021—the start of the Omicron wave, a DailyMail.com analysis of official statistics has revealed. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) published its estimates for the fatality rate for leading causes of death over October to December last year on Wednesday. Data showed that despite the surge in infections at the time, fatalities caused by Covid remained minimal among American children less than 15 years old—with the disease not becoming the leading cause of death.

Long-time political strategist Dick Morris, formerly of the Clinton camp before coming to the light some years ago, penned a piece for Newsmax yesterday that predicted a 2016 rematch pitting twice-failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton against former president – and America’s most popular politician – Donald Trump. Clinton just can’t give it a rest. She has rested her entire legacy on one day sitting in the Oval Office as this nation’s first female president. Of course, her party can’t define the term “woman” anymore, and then there’s the fact that she hates this country and most of the deplorables living in it.

But since his heroic actions contradict the carefully-cultivated left-wing narrative, a number of prominent voices have immediately risen up to demonize the young man. Case in point: the majority of the hosts on ABC’s “The View,” whose considered opinion is that Dicken just got “very lucky,” and was probably as bad as the mass shooter since he “broke the law” when he carried his gun into the mall. It all started, naturally, with co-host Joy Behar,

As the United States continues to come to grips with the Supreme Court decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, I cannot stop thinking about how the court used a legal system built entirely by men to diminish women — once again — into nothing more than a vessel for producing babies. I am a rabbi in a legal system that excluded women for thousands of years, much like the legal system that the Supreme Court relied on in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization. But unlike the American legal system, the Jewish tradition, in certain respects, including abortion, found a way to craft laws grounded in equal dignity for women.

Police say it took Elisjsha Dicken just 15 seconds to neutralize a man who opened fire on shoppers at an Indiana mall — quick action they believe saved countless lives. "The time lapse between the moment that Jonathan Sapirman exited the restroom and began shooting, and when he was shot by the civilian was only fifteen seconds, not two minutes," Greenwood Police Chief James Ison said Tuesday in a statement.

David Weiss, the US Attorney in Delaware, is leading the probe, which dates back to as early as 2018.
