Enough is enough!
The Big Apple’s migrant crisis is spiraling so far out of control that fed-up businesses say they’re taking a financial hit as the chaotic influx of asylum seekers pouring into the city spills out of city-run mega shelters and onto the streets.
From families sprawled out on busy Midtown sidewalks, grown men brawling and even mini tent cities popping up – frustrated New Yorkers say the asylum seeker mess has now well and truly become a plague that’s showing no signs of easing.(Snip)City Council Minority Leader Joe Borelli (R-Staten Island), however, lashed out at Adams for pushing the Big Apple as a sanctuary city in the first place.

I'm sure thousands of 'new migrants' will make their way to NYC every week. Good luck keeping them housed, fed, clothed, entertained, etc....

New York voters - - you need to elect more communists.
Nothing good can happen - - until all elected offices are held by communists. You have been warned!

And? Thousands? A few mere thousands? Itty bitty towns along the Texas border are handling MILLIONS! NYC is a sanctuary city. Live up to that proud destination for illegals as its exactly what the citizens of NYC desire. It is amusing to see turbo liberals have to live with their turbo insane policies.

Nothing will be done about this until it’s too late and the city has lost 80% of their tourism and the businesses close or leave. Then ‘Escape From New York’ becomes reality. Other big blue cities are also in this graveyard spiral.

Enough is enough. I thought they said that ten years ago. But apparently it ISN'T enough. Lie with dogs and wake up with fleas. Well..they said that too.

They’re getting a small taste of what it’s like in actual border states. Not only do these people enter our country illegally, they steal, assault, trash everything everywhere and somehow think they are entitled. Instead of begging for more taxpayer dollars, send these criminals back where they came from.

Please don't refer to these people as "asylum seekers." People who truly qualify for asylum are few and far between. Asylum seeking is a scam illegals perpetrate on this country and the people who ultimately will determine their fate are happy to let them get away with it. This Biden era pack of border jumpers seem a very self-entitled bunch. And the authorities seem eager to cater to them.

My grandfather worked when he came to the USA. I think he had the job lined up before he came here.
So,.....why aren't (liberal) employers lining up to provide employment to these people so they won't be dependent on government services? Did you say that they are not employable? Then why were they let into the USA?

Oh! I forgot. . .this needs to happen to leftists all across the country. They put the clowns in office in their big cities, so they deserve to reap the rewards of their idiotic choices!
I know we don't need any more illegal invaders, but since poopy pants biden's handlers are only making this worse, everyone else ought to be sending ALL the illegals to these big cities until the influx problem is resolved under a legitimate administration.

Just shut up and try living by the Texas border.
They complain about less than 0.01% of what Texas has to put up with.

"Am I wrong?" This from a coworker, talking to a cubicle companion. Elderly coworker across the divider was complaining about a 2 month wait to get a certain fix done to his vehicle. "Blame that on the guy putting up the river barrier." Claims "these people want to work". We've got to be "smart" about immigration policy...
Gets his news from 60 Minutes. I did not rise to the bait.
