‘Slap in the Face’: Biden Admin Criticizes NYC for Lack of ‘Exit Strategy’ Regarding Migrants

‘Slap in the Face’: Biden Admin Criticizes NYC for Lack of ‘Exit Strategy’ Regarding Migrants

New York City has far passed its breaking point, and we continue to call on our federal partners to expedite work authorizations, declare a national state of emergency, create a decompression strategy, and lead on this national issue.”

El-Oh-El.

New York City Mayor Eric Adams has been going after President Joe Biden’s administration over immigration and the border crisis after he learned it’s not so easy being a sanctuary city.

The Department of Homeland Security criticized Adams for having no exit strategy regarding the migrants. From NBC News:

The Department of Homeland Security sent an “assessment team” in August to study the way the city is handling the more than 100,000 migrants who have come through New York in the past year.

The resulting assessment has not been released publicly, but one senior DHS official familiar with the team’s findings told NBC News the city has “no exit strategy” to see that migrants find their way out of its shelter system.

“It’s not an operationally sound effort,” the official said.

Another federal official said there are concerns that the migrant issue in New York City could overshadow accomplishments made by the Biden administration on immigration and other issues.

Excuse me? What accomplishments?

The mayor’s office isn’t having any of that:

“As we have said repeatedly, with more than 110,000 asylum-seekers that have come through our care since spring 2022, and hundreds more arriving daily, we cannot continue to work to solve a national crisis that the federal government has refused to take meaningful action on,” said Kayla Mamelak, deputy press secretary in the mayor’s office.

“We have opened more than 200 emergency shelters, have spent more than $2 billion to date, and expect to spend $5 billion this fiscal year alone without substantial aid from our state and federal partners. New York City has far passed its breaking point, and we continue to call on our federal partners to expedite work authorizations, declare a national state of emergency, create a decompression strategy, and lead on this national issue.”

Mamelak described the comments as a “slap in the face.”

DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas claimed the administration and NYC have started “working very closely” to solve any problems.

Yeah, Texas has been sending migrants to NYC since last year. So, like, 18 months later? Yippee.

Everyone has taken notice of the border crisis since Texas and Arizona started sending migrants to so-called sanctuary cities.

Imagine how the small towns along the border feel.

I wish the Biden official would elaborate on the many immigration accomplishments. I’m not seeing any.

Will Neil Young remember that a Southern Man don’t need him around, anyhow?

Let the infighting commence*

*Until one group pays off the other group and they come up with a bullshit story that places sole blame on those evil Republicans.

Do you know who else is stupid? All the sinners and criminals who are stoned to death in biblical times. All they needed was a proper exit strategy for the stones, and they would’ve survived unscathed.

KEEP SENDING MORE, and increase the flow tenfold.

If I was New York City Mayor Eric Adams, I’d be temped to bus them to Delaware.

Get off the bus, Gus. Make a new plan, Stan. Fifty ways to please your migrants

Exit Strategy?? With the Biden policies, a BILLION people would come to the USA if they could. The 110K NY City has gotten so far is just the tip of the iceberg and what Adams did or did not do with them is of little relevance. For example, even if all were nicely placed outside the “shelter system”, they will show up at ERs for health care, which all by itself will be a budget-buster for governments and hospitals. Educating the illiterate kids who do not speak English will cost a fortune. How many has Mayorkas taken into his home? He should lead by example.

    Meh. Triage, Tylenol and rejection of non trauma and non emergency situations along with pain in the ass paperwork requirements prior to being seen for those that didn’t arrive by ambulance would probably cut down on ER visits. Hospitals must provide emergency care in the ER but don’t have to do jack squat beyond stabilising those actual trauma/emergency patients. My suggestion would be a cranky old, crusty ass retired military PA to run triage for folks not arriving by ambulance with EMT.

      In my neck of the woods (greater LA), the hospitals have been simply shutting down their ERs for 20 years for precisely this reason. Under the EMTALA, the ERs are forced to treat all comers, the hospitals are not.

    The Billion will eventually all show up… it’s already started. The Dems will let them all in and push Americans and legal immigrants aside…. It will devastate literally every community in America and destroy the country and it’s natural resources forever …. AND… even if Biden or whatever evil stupid Democrat replaces him and has an approval rating of Zero he will still “win” by 81 million votes

lol love it … send em to Delaware
to Joes house …
and more to Marthas vineyard
king putt needs a new chief they
can try out for that ….

    Mayor NIMBY Adams literally and legally cannot do that as NYC signed a Consent Decree stating that the city will provide all homeless people with adequate, sanitary, and safe housing. And that includes all of the illegals now appearing in NYC courtesy of the Southern pipeline. So Mayor NIMBY is sorta, kinda, literally stuck dealing with the illegals or he risks violating the Consent Decree and facing legal consequences.

      And the real knee-slapper is that he isn’t even the one who signed it!
      I bet if he had known beforehand that the mayor job came with that albatross hung around its neck, he would’ve emigrated to Florida himself!

    Anyone who thinks that penalty is too harsh on Delaware voters….

    remember that they have been totally responsible for imposing Joe Biden on this nation since 1972.

    We haven’t even begun to get even for that.

If the estimate that 8 million illegals have entered the country under Biden is correct, then NYC’s proportionate number would be 200,000. But, since they are a sanctuary, surely they should save the illegals from going to evil jurisdictions like Florida, and take twice their share. Send them more until they have 400k.

New York City was happy being a Sanctuary City, until they had to be a Sanctuary City.

Adams has been going after Abbott. Apparently the invaders just magically appear there, or something. A space/time portal? A tunnel? It defies explanation.

The problem is Biden’s entrance strategy, not Adam’s exit strategy.

Still, Adams refuses to criticize Biden for keeping the border open. Until he does so, he’s just another DemoncRat hack politician.

“Exit strategy”?

If they migrated illegally, and are not in the asylum process, hold brief hearings to verify their migration status and exit them to the border they snuck across. Expedited process for those convicted of crimes or repeat deportees.

Obviously, this crisis calls for an emergency tax increase. I suggest a 10% wealth tax on households with more than $3 million in assets. For the children.

Adams is a standard issue cowering, political jive talking Democrat. Until one of these people stands in front of a network television camera crew and demands that Joe Biden order the border closed, slammed shut, instantly, this is not going to stop. Democrat mayors, governors, AGs, senators, congressman and congresswomen, each with his or her own little school of pilot fish followers standing behind them nodding their heads up and down like a collection of bobble-head dolls, are a collection of eunuchs, wimps, and suckers. The country cannot even begin to address the problem until the border is closed.

That not a single one of them has had the courage to call out and confront this vainglorious, corrupt, mumbling, doddering old hair-plugged mediocrity with his cabinet and administration of inept bumblers, clowns, diversities, and freaks who are wrecking the country is disgraceful. Everyone in the world – friends, enemies, and everyone in between – knows. They are, variously, aghast, overjoyed, snickering, and stupified that this country’s people have permitted a collection crooks, liars and oddballs to turn it into an inept global laughing stock.

CLOSE THE BORDER. Nothing can or will be done until that happens.

This is all theater. Neither Biden nor Adams want the flood of illegal voters to end. I don’t trust “santuary cities” to prevent non-citizen voters from voting in national and state elections. Many have proposed letting them vote in local elections, and no sane person believes that once these people are on the voting rolls they will not be listed as eligible voters in national elections.

New York’s exit strategy should have been to put the migrants on busses, and send them to Biden’s two addresses in Delaware. Why should Delaware get off scot-free?
