Sanctuary cities like New York City experience a FRACTION of what Texas border communities face every day.
We'll continue busing migrants to NYC, DC, & Chicago to relieve our overwhelmed border towns until Biden does his job to secure the border.
Mayor Adams declared a state of emergency Friday over the city’s migrant crisis and pleaded for financial and legislative assistance from the federal government and state lawmakers.
The emergency declaration will suspend certain land use requirements in order for the city to more rapidly construct tent camps to house migrants, such as the controversial facility set to be constructed on Randalls Island, Adams said in a speech from City Hall.
But the declaration only goes so far, Adams said. With more than 17,000 South and Central American migrants currently in the city, the homeless shelter system is nearly at 100% capacity and social services are being strained to the brink of collapse, he said.
“It is burning through our budget,” he said, predicting that the city will spend more than $1 billion on the crisis in this fiscal year alone.
“It is not sustainable, and it is not right,” he added.
As a result, Adams demanded that President Biden’s administration and state lawmakers in Albany do what they can to help, including allocating emergency funding and passing legislation that would expedite work permits for the migrants.
“This is an all-hands-on-deck moment,” he said.

This is that smuggie, nearly word for word. You know the one, "no I'm not Christian and I have nothing but contempt for your backwards religion but maybe I can use your beliefs against you"

That smuggie is literally just "I have no real counterargument against this, but maybe if I describe it in a sufficiently ironic tone that will come across as a refutation"

Why would you counter a non argument? The words of a non believer have 0 value and their judgment is meaningless
