NYC Official: We’re Struggling to Deal
with Migrants Because Abbott Didn’t
Warn Us

Original Article

Posted By: ladydawgfan, 8/23/2022 8:36:08 AM

On Monday’s edition of NBC’s “Top Story,” Commissioner of the New York City Mayor’s Office of Immigrant Affairs Manuel Castro blamed the city’s poor handling of migrants bused to the city on Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) because Abbott didn’t warn them about the influx of migrants. Host Tom Llamas asked, “So, Commissioner, you know cities in Texas have been dealing with this issue for decades. And now, New York City, Washington, D.C. dealing with the same issues, right now.” Llamas then read criticism from The New York Times of the city’s early handling of the migrants before asking, “So, what’s happening?"

Has Castro been completely oblivious to what has been happening on the border for the last 20 months? Heck, the hordes started heading this way the day after TaliBiden was “elected”. How did he miss that?

The whining is about getting $$$ from state or Feds, and the usual political palaver. It's not meant to do anything but get the usual suspects upset to make it so. This is a win-win for both sides. Abbott inflicts "pain" on the lib capitals of America and his supporters get to gleefully shout, "Take that, sanctuary cities!" The mayors of these cities get to wring their hands about how they are humanitarians taking in these wretched, storm-tossed freedom seekers after the heartless anti-immigration governor sent them unprepared, but the cities need more resources. Uncle Joe will provide...there must be something left in the COVID TRILLIONS. Here's the funny thing. Abbott spends $1400 per head for a bus ride. For $500 he could fly them to NYC first class. But that wouldn't be so dramatic. Thank goodness for knucklehead Beto as his opponent.

These sanctimonious preachy Democrats get hysterical when they are taken at their word and are sent bus loads of the same "immigrants" they lecture the rest of the country about all the time. Governor Abbott please send the next bus load to Rehoboth Beach, Delaware. Look for a house on the beach that is building a $500,000 wall. They will be met with open arms.

I wish people would stop saying these are democrat voters. The percent of illegals who would even vote is miniscule just a fraction of a fraction who would come out of the shadows to vote. The democrats own the machines and drop boxes to cheat and win they don't need the diseased vermin to steal elections. The purpose is to overwhelm and crash the system, that's the plan. Put illegals on Social Security and Medicare to break it. Give the illegals everything while starving out the working American citizens it's like unleashing rats on a city to destroy the city. Everything is a plan to kill America, for good.

#8-Do you wonder why the illegals do NOT have to get the vax? Maybe the GREAT RESET is true and they are our replacements. The jab will kill us and voila-no more whites or Americans. Most POC did not get the "jab". The elites are fed up with our complaining about wanting to keep the constitution and the amendments. I had a daughter who get her first booster (she believed fauci) and within 15 weeks cancer exploded in her body and she was gone. You should see this video. Fauci is the cause for every disaster regarding vaccines . We used to take a few vaccines as kids and now the kids take myriads of them. How many HIV patients died because of his EXPERIMENTS. Now he has done the same with COVID. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gsDlHprql-g Here is an article about what Fauci did to orphans and girls in SA with his stupid "vaccines". There is even a monument to the deaths of all those who died from him trying to see the limits of tolerance to the vaccines kids could take before they died. If the kids would not take the meds they would be restrained and force fed them. If they still would not take them the kids were taken to a hospital and a tube was put into their stomach for the meds to be put into. Fauci is a horrific monster. If he was willing to do this to orphans and girls in SA what is he willing to do to our children today? And what possible data is gotten from having those beagles faces being eaten off by sandflies? https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2021/12/rfk-jr-reporter-found-monument-dead-orphans-tortured-killed-monster-fauci-video/

I don't remember any request for warning about illegal aliens in the sanctuary city declarations. They wanted them, they asked them to come. Now suddenly they complain they had no warning. Border states didn't ask for the illegal aliens, and they had no warning, and they are dealing with a much worse invasion than you. Time for NYC and other grateful recipients to shut up.

Baloney, there are most probably 50 times more illegal alien migrants who made their way, or who the Biden crew facilitated being transported to NYC and other so-called sanctuary cities, than aboard the few buses that the Texas Governor offered illegal aliens a ride to NYC and DC. The Democrats don’t want illegal aliens to be removed (deported) from the USA because almost all fit within the ethnic and racial categories of Democrat identity politics and boost up the minority populations in those Democrat controlled areas and cities, with the Democrats believing that todays illegal aliens can easily be transformed into future Democrat supporters and eventually voters. When local Democrat officials ask Biden and the DC Democrats for help, what they are really asking for are billions of federal dollars to be sent to them and local Democrat controlled nongovernmental organizations (NGOS) to defray the costs of handing illegal aliens all sort of government provided benefits, goods, and services. By doing that the Democrats are actually encouraging and inviting more and more mostly poor and uneducated illegal aliens to unlawfully continue to enter the USA and travel however they can to Democrat controlled Sanctuary Cities and areas. All that is being done in violation of current US Immigration laws.

Re #25, you and I need documents to pass through TSA, but illegal aliens, you know CRIMINALS, do NOT need identification. They can fly in their "notice to appear" paperwork which says that they are an illegal alien.....that we know NOTHING about.

Dr. Anthony Fauci admitted in a Friday Washington Post report that his $10.4 million financial portfolio was hidden from being easily obtained by American citizens. After watchdogs failed for months to obtain his financial disclosures, Fauci’s 2020 portfolio was obtained and published by Sen. Roger Marshall (R-KS) on January 14. Fauci’s disclosures were obtained by Marshall after Fauci called the senator a “moron” on a hot mic at a Senate hearing. “Maybe the senator has a point,” Fauci said about the hidden disclosures. “Maybe my financial investments, though disclosed and available, should be much easier to see.” As the highest paid federal employee of the federal government, Fauci must publicly disclose financial statements.

A new report is shedding light on exactly how the DOJ investigation into Donald Trump over supposed “classified documents” at Mar-a-Lago got started. The FBI recently raided the former president’s Florida home, claiming possible violations of the Espionage Act and other national security concerns. What flowed after the unprecedented action was a series of coordinated leaks from inside the government meant to make Trump look guilty of crimes. But how did things get that far? Apparently, it started with the National Archives, which is run by a partisan hack who decided to treat Trump differently from all other presidents before him.
