The city of Denver is set to slash $5 million from its Parks and Rec and DMV budgets as it faces a staggering $180 million bill to shelter migrants in 2024.
Denver mayor Mike Johnston announced the cuts this week - and warned far worse is to come.
'While they are the first steps, they unfortunately will not be the last,' Johnson said, adding that the cuts also likely 'will not be the hardest.'Denver officials warn that the 38,464 migrants they have served since late 2022 are increasing every single day.

Excellent news. Send another full bus every 15 minutes from Eagle Pass to Denver until the Colorado liberals see the light.

Why should the taxpayer have to pay for this democrat voting drive? Especially when the main purpose of all this illegal immigration is to counter US voters?

Take the $5 million and fly them home. You do not need to land. Give them parachutes and push them out the door over their own country.

Why is it that when there aren't enough resources to go around, Democrat politicians always expect their CONSTITUENTS to tighten their belts?
Putting Americans last in order to "serve" illegal aliens has always been popular with corrupt politicians. They've sided with illegals for decades. Hopefully, alert citizens taking stock of what they've lost, and taking a fresh look at the kind of people they've put into office, will have second thoughts about who represents them, and who admits illegals are "the people we really care about."

Keep the buses going until the Dem voters get tired of blaming the Republicans and demand that Biden close the border. By the way, when Denver runs out of money, what are all these illegals going to do? We all know the answer to that one.

The californication of Colorado continues apace. Other posters have stated that this would cause the commies to lose elections. Perhaps the commies are proceeding with the knowledge that, with their election fraud machine firmly in place, they will never lose an election again. Did you think of that?

Corrupt governments only love their citizens at election time, it does not matter what the favored faction might be. All voters become nothing but ATM machines between elections. This philosophy will fail with the illegals, they may vote as a bloc but afterwards they are nothing but parasites, not sources of cash. Predictably, the democrats have not thought this through. Also not considered will be the many illegal drug dealers that will undercut the lucrative tax revenue now being collected from licensed drug dealers. Denver will become another New York or LA in the very near future.

The apparent very liberal Democrat mayor of Denver was on TV claiming that it is the right thing to do to allow effectively unlimited numbers of Third World origin illegal aliens to come to Denver and be taken care of, ensuring that they do not have to live in tents and that the Federal Government should be paying all the expenses to welcome and resettle whatever illegal aliens arrive in that city.
Obviously the leftist and socialist Democrats are looking ahead to when the vast and growing illegal alien population is granted a Democrat designed “path to citizenship” amnesty or other legalization program leading to that population group that may exceed 20 million people are granted US citizenship and most importantly to the leftist and socialist Democrats, US voting rights. No doubt following that, the leftist and socialist Democrats will move on to the next step to claim that the right thing to do is to allow the extended foreign family members of the legalized aliens to be allowed into the USA as legal immigrants, thereby increasing the numbers of those legalized foreign origin migrants by a factor of about six, thus ensuring that in the years ahead the leftist and socialist Democrats would receive a big majority of those would be foreign origin people’s votes by the tens of millions, believing that those poor and uneducated people who will be highly dependent upon all sorts of Government social welfare, will vote to keep the leftist and socialist Democrats in permanent political power controlling the Congress and White House on into the future, allowing the leftist and socialist Democrats to continue to change the population demographics of the USA until the country wakes up one day and finds that a vast coalition of minority groups constitute the minority-majority population of the USA controlling the politics and the future one party leftist and socialist Democrat Government of the USA. It’s all political!
