Migrants arriving in New York City from the border will be housed temporarily in this luxury Manhattan hotel - the $700-a-night The Row in the tourist hotspot of Times Square, but they'll be assigned to ring-fenced floors and will be told to use a separate entrance to the tourists being charged top dollar to stay there. Popular with people traveling for business and pleasure, The Row - described on travel review sites as 'merging NYC's grit with grandeur' - will become a hub for housing migrants on the taxpayers' dime in the coming weeks. The four-star Row, on 8th Avenue between 44th and 45th streets,

I went to NYC once. My family walked from one train station to another. End of story. I remember the continual scent of urine as we walked. I grew up in what was a section of New Spain (for 300 years).It is now named Nevada. The area I like is nothing like NYC.

Great, they have to use the back door to get in. It's sounds like they'll all be rich soon after they file a class action lawsuit for racism against the hotel and the city who put them up there. They'll be living the American dream soon. Better than hitting the lottery.

Thomas Cook sent me to meet with a bunch of Investment Bankers that we owned. They all dealt in Foreign Currency Contracts worldwide. Spent one night in NY City and then flew out. Had an hour to kill so saw the famous Waldorf across the street. Went in and found the bar. Ordered a Scotch and Soda...1987...$12.00!!! Then went to the airport and was on a pay phone where my briefcase was promptly stolen from under me! Flew back to Minneapolis resolved to NEVER do that again! I must really have fallen off the turnip truck! What a rube!

(I'm sure I posted a similar comment before, but it's not there.) It seems to me that a sure-fire way to get people on the bus from Texas to New York City is to let them know they are going to be staying in a luxury hotel. it's the "Build It and They Will Come" strategy that has worked so well with the homeless in San Francisco.

A lot of the so-called migrants (illegal aliens) come from third world foreign lands where there is little indoor plumbing and thus they don’t have a clue as to how to even use a modern toilet. Those hotel companies are committing corporate suicide by filling their vacant rooms with third world illegal aliens who there is no doubt will through ignorance trash the hotels. Chances are that therefore there are provisions in their contracts with the City of New York that the NY taxpayers through the City will be responsible to completely refurbish the entire hotel once the illegal aliens depart.

In San Francisco, the City rented the world-class Mark Hopkins Hotel for homeless housing. The City provided daily room service of deliveries of free marijuana. Within months, new carpeting was needed in the hallways, the previous floor covering having been damaged beyond repair. Because the City did provide a travel advisory to future guests, travel websites cautioned foreigners against booking rooms there. Ain't liberalism grand?

IIRC, in 2020, pelosi performed this stunt on several boutique hotels connected with her own constituents and voters. The guests and staff were terrorised out of the bldgs straightaway by the druggies and criminals, in various states of undress. Within a few more days, the places were toxic waste dumps of needles, filthy burning mattresses, carpeting, furniture; they had to be evacuated. Took about a week or so to be officially shut down as city health hazards. No word on what it cost us.

I cannot imagine those same folks who enjoy staying there will come again after finding out about the migrants sharing the same hotel as they pay top dollar for. Maybe those migrants are nice folks, but I am betting that most of them are willing to commit criminal acts against the other patrons staying at that luxe hotel.

The FBI’s raid on Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate was directly approved and overseen by Justice Department officials with deep ties to Russiagate, as reported earlier. But there is surfacing evidence that those ties are more direct and extensive than previously believed. A RealClearInvestigations review of the agents involved in the FBI’s Trump raid has found that the anti-Trump operation was run primarily by the Washington Field Office and not the Miami Field Office. The Washington Field Office is deeply enmeshed in the FBI’s Crossfire Hurricane operation from 2016-2017, which featured laundered Clinton oppo research and FISA surveillance warrant abuse

New York City officials are set to enroll at least 1,000 young border crossers — most of whom arrived on migrant buses sent from Texas by Gov. Greg Abbott (R) — in public schools across the five boroughs as the city grapples with how to reduce classroom overcrowding. Buses filled with border crossers to New York City — the nation’s largest sanctuary city that shields and protects illegal aliens from arrest and deportation by the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency. Now, New York City officials say they will enroll at least 1,000 young border crossers in public schools from Manhattan to Queens before the school year starts on September 8,

Perhaps Cheney’s best hope of winning the presidency is with Democrat voters because her favorability among Democrats far outweighs her support among Republicans and independents.

FISA Warrants -In the summer of 2016, FBI bureaucrats launched a deep-state operation, known as Crossfire Hurricane, to thwart then-candidate Trump’s presidential ambitions. It began by targeting Trump campaign foreign policy adviser George Papadopoulos and quickly branched out as bureaucrats expanded their surveillance. The spy agency used the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) as a legal pretext to investigate and spy on Papadopoulos, in addition to former White House national security adviser Michael Flynn, former Trump campaign manager Paul Manafort, and former Trump adviser Carter Page.
