NYC Forcing Brooklyn Students to Go Remote as City Moves Nearly 2,000 Illegal Immigrants Into High School
“They are using a storm, a legitimate situation, where they are testing this out. I guarantee you they’ll be here for the entire summer.”
Students at James Madison High School in Brooklyn, New York, are going back to Covid-style remote learning because the city is moving almost 2,000 illegal immigrants into the school due to bad winter weather. This is outrageous, and it’s stunning that the taxpayers in this community are putting up with it.
This is supposed to be a temporary measure. Will anyone be surprised if that changes?
The New York Post reports:
NYC students forced to go remote as city houses nearly 2K migrants displaced by storm at their school
Students at a Brooklyn high school were kicked out of the classroom to make room for nearly 2,000 migrants who were evacuated from a controversial tent shelter due to a monster storm closing in on the Big Apple.
The city made the move amid concerns that a massive migrant tent at Floyd Bennett Field would collapse from torrential rains and gusting winds — packing them instead into the second-floor gym at James Madison High School five miles away.
The school’s neighbors were not keen on the last-minute decision.
“This is f—ed up,” said a local resident who identified himself only as Rob. “It’s a litmus test. They are using a storm, a legitimate situation, where they are testing this out. I guarantee you they’ll be here for the entire summer.
“There’s 1,900 people getting thrown into my neighborhood, half a block from where I live and we don’t know who they are,” he said. “They’re not vetted. A lot of them have criminal records and backgrounds and we don’t even know.”
One irate mom even went off on the migrants as they pulled up inside a line of school buses in the pouring rain shortly before 6 p.m.
“How do you feel? Does it feel good?” the woman, who only identified herself as Michelle, screamed at the buses. “How does it feel that you kicked all the kids out of school tomorrow? Does it feel good? I hope you feel good. I hope you will sleep very well tonight!”
The situation in James Madison High School is even worse than we thought. They’re not even doing remote live learning with a teacher.
Students have to request in advance via email if they want an actual teacher to be available to teach them.

Lots of people are talking about this on Twitter/X:

Students in NYC are being kicked out of their high school and pushed into remote learning in order to temporarily house almost 2,000 migrants who crossed into the U.S. illegally & have been released from federal custody.

BREAKING: Buses are now pulling up to @JMHSBklyn and dropping off illegals. School is closed tomorrow because illegals will be sleeping in the school’s gym. This is disgraceful! NYC is prioritizing illegals over Americans. pic.twitter.com/2jmKXfRTHX https://t.co/ViZiWlqTX5

For TWO YEARS our kids lost in-person learning due to Democrat lockdowns.
Now they’re shutting down James Madison HS for migrants and forcing the students to learn virtually.

What are we even doing here? None of this makes sense for anyone, and it’s clear that none of it will stop as long as Biden is in charge.
Also, is Eric Adams planning to sue the school bus company for transporting the illegals to the school?

LoL. You’re just figuring that one out? You probably voted for Biden, right? Well, elections have consequences.. No sympathy for you whatsoever.
“How do you feel? Does it feel good?” the woman, who only identified herself as Michelle, screamed at the buses. “How does it feel that you kicked all the kids out of school tomorrow? Does it feel good? I hope you feel good. I hope you will sleep very well tonight.
NIMBY! NIMBY! NIMBY! NIMBY! NIMBY! NIMBY! NIMBY! NIMBY! NIMBY!
It’s just so fun to watch these liberal democrats losing their minds now that they have to deal with all of these “migrants”. If you didn’t want them showing up then perhaps you shouldn’t have had your city declared a “sanctuary city”. What the heck did you think that was all about.
Probably not. Trump carried the precinct including that school with 88% of the vote.
Hmm. This now makes sense. It’s payback time for the folks that voted the wrong way.
Well now, he’ll be at 100% (if he was a Dem, it would be 120%).
20% of people vote. 105% in . Philly however
Wow. You can snicker and think “It’s New York’s problem…” until it gets to the point where all New York property is turned over to illegals and they start doing it in New Jersey and Massachusetts and on and on like a cancer.
The people who are involved in and responsible for this tyranny and treason should have been tried, convicted and punished by now. The shenanigans with and at our border should have been enough to have the President charged with treason by now. When is enough enough?
“The people who are involved in and responsible for this tyranny and treason should have been tried, convicted and…” …hung by the neck until dead.
I gotta be honest, New York currently getting poked in the eye as a result of the policy choices made by their elected officials and very importantly the electorate which gave them the reins of power seems like a good thing. Should it spread to Massachusetts and New Jersey I will remain unmoved by their plight b/c the electorate in those States gave power to ideologues just as NY did.
Sectionalism in the US never went away but for me at least, this isn’t simple schadenfreude, it’s more disinterest and an attitude of ‘sucks to be you’ than anything else. Those of us outside the Acela Corridor don’t particularly care if the chickens come to roost as a result of decades of the residents choosing to elect d/prog and approving their ideological policy agenda at the local, State and Federal level.
“Wow. You can snicker and think “It’s New York’s problem…” until it gets to the point where all New York property is turned over to illegals and they start doing it in New Jersey and Massachusetts and on and on like a cancer”
Are you stupid?
All of this is happening because morons in blue states piously declared themselves ‘sanctuaries’ and undermined our immigration and border enforcement systems because THEY didn’t live in the states that were getting overrun.
Now, those states are giving them illegal immigrants that can give ‘sanctuary’ too and they’re finding out that great big rich NYC and Chicago can’t handle what they expected tiny poor Texas border towns to deal with..
We WANT this to spill over into all those blue sanctuary states.
I guess I am stupid. Thanks for pointing that out.
And where did I say that it spilling into those states was a bad idea? I guess I’m too stoopid to understand that I wasn’t actually saying those in charge of this should be held accountable. I guess I was actually saying I am a library and woe is me.
Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort. No Person shall be convicted of Treason unless on the Testimony of two Witnesses to the same overt Act, or on Confession in open Court.
There’s a great deal to be said for defining “enemies” more broadly than in the past.
I think the Davos cult is one, for instance.
Especially since the meaning of ‘War’ has been stretched a good bit by neo cons. If treason is to be limited to traditional interpretations so be it but lets also make sure we bring War back to it’s traditional meaning as well right alongside. Otherwise nope, new rules and interpretation for both. Personally I would much prefer the traditional meaning and their traditional constraints both explicit and implied.
How do you claim they have changed the definition of war?
To answer Milhouse’s response since I guess it is too far down the chain and slightly correct you:
They haven’t so much redefined war as redefined not war. We send the military all over the world to fight but only have an “Authorization for Use of Military Force” not a Declaration of War.
An AUMF is a declaration of war. There is no requirement that a declaration of war must include the magic words “We Declare War”, or any other specific formula. Our legal system doesn’t do magic words.
“Can one generation bind another, and all others, in succession forever? I think not. The Creator has made the earth for the living, not the dead. Rights and powers can only belong to persons, not to things, not to mere matter endowed with will… Nothing is unchangeable but the inherent and unalienable rights of man.”
–THOMAS JEFFERSON
TL;DR: That’s what amendments are good for.
I think aid and lots of comfort to invaders qualifies.
Unfortunately, that is what it will take to wake those people up. They were perfectly fine when it was happening 1500 miles away at the southern border and it was Texas, New Mexico and Arizona having to deal with it.
There is so much that is wrong about this. I cannot wrap my brain around that much bs.. One question that comes to mind is what is the straw that will break the camel’s back? FWIW, my view of Adams is that he is not too bright.
Nah, for all the whining, moaning, and complaining all of these people will go out at the next election and still vote for the democrat thinking that this time around it will be different. Of course, it’ll all end up as more of the same but that’s neither here nor there. They’ve been life-long democrats so why change now. Even if it’s so obviously in their better interests to do so.
If you’re still talking about the people quoted in this story, you’re very likely to be wrong.
Ha ha ha ha ha! They’ll just vote for a “better Democrat.”
No, they won’t. So long as we’re still talking about the people quoted in this story, and particularly the one who said he lives half a block away, it’s very likely that they voted for Trump, since he got 88% of the vote in that precinct
Or it is likely that their vote will be counted for the democrat, regardless of how it was cast.

Yeah. With mail in fraud, er, I mean, ballots, they don’t even need voters anymore…
I can’t muster any outrage for this. At all. I do hope it’s a red-pill moment for voters in NY and elsewhere. If not, lets have more kids displaced from school in favor of able bodied adults until people come to their senses.
The taxpayers paid for those schools, and the taxpayers should receive refunds of their school taxes until NYC comes to its senses and does what it should, that is, kick the illegal aliens right the Hell out.
Keep those buses rolling in until New Yorkers turn the state red.
If the Hochul/Zeldin election were next week, Zeldin would still lose. Biden will beat Trump by 20+ points this fall. If you’re too stupid to realize the stove is hot no matter how many times it burns you, you deserve everything you’re going to get.
This is the epilogue to Heather MacDonald’s ” The Burden of Bad Ideas”.
The punishment and harassment of NY voters by the NY elected officials should continue. After all, if they voted for Dem candidates, they should get Dem policies.
This is so funny. Watch as more taxpayers desert NYC.
As of Tuesday evening the official word was that the migrants would be bused in after school and bused out before school starts:
But then things apparently changed, and school was canceled.
I wonder how much “cleaning” was necessary?
My thought on reading the initial story was “How much will it cost (money and time) to replace all the damaged and missing items once you figure out how to return students to the classroom?”
“Does anybody know where the chem lab scales got to?”
They’ll surely have to upgrade the cafeteria food. There’s no way the illegals will find it acceptable to their refined palates.
“You call these tacos?!”
“Americans are being deprived of an education to cater to illegals.”
As if they were getting an education anyway.
American students know more about Inclusive Emoji than do the students of ANY other country, so don’t tell me they aren’t receiving a high quality education!
I’ve got it!! Use Madison Sq Garden, Barclays Center, UBS Arena, all the college gyms and arenas in the NYC metro area. Plenty of room. There are some nice baseball and football stadiums for the summer where tent cities can be established.
I second the college gyms. That’s the best place for them.
The best place to send them is back to their home country, or maybe Mexico (after we seal the border), since Mexico is complicit in the invasion.
Yup. Colleges are where wokeness goes to breed. Wokeness took a big hit in sanctuary cities when we forced them to live up to their pledge. It was incredible how quickly Judy Boxwine grew to resent those plucky refugees. We need to give the same reality check to John and Jane Pronouns.
Found this update at ACEOFSPADESHQ
The HS is in the ONE red district in the blue sea…. Not by accident
update:
Commenter “Biden’s Dog sniffs a whole lotta malarkey” informs me that Madison HS is located in a GOP district. I thought Brooklyn was like 99% solid Democrat. Now this makes sense as to why they pulled this stunt here. Consider my snark at her directed at the libs in Park Slope, the Upper West Side and everywhere else that vote for this crap.“
Why not use the governor’s mansion instead?
Seems the blue area is trying to drive out the red area by forcing illegal aliens on them.
Americans are 2nd class citizens in their own country now.
Obama is smiling.
He rarely smiles. He does grin like an idiot a lot though.
I saw a posting that this school is in a already red district in Brooklyn
See comment above
Back in English classes we were taught to write a synopsis using one sentence and as few words as possible. My opening sentence for this article would have been:
“We are being replaced”
“And that’s a good thing” — Joe Biden
Keep sending them and increase the throughput.
It’s not a matter of education. Where will those poor children get their breakfast, lunch and dinner? Not to mention their DEI indoctrination.
It is an absolute certainty that the school will have to be gutted and rebuilt.
Eventually.
Maybe.
Stop calling them “immigrants”. They’re illegal alien invaders.
Indeed. Do not surrender the language. They are illegal aliens not migrants.
Hostile foreign invaders.

And teachers can go back to working at home again I guess,
It’s harder for them to indoctrinate the kids when parents are watching.
Hmmm. Once the schools become barracks for the invading army, they will require remodeling, repair, or replacement even IF the invaders are ever moved elsewhere. So functionally, the schools will have to be replaced either way. That takes money [which they do not have] and time. A lot of time. If the kids are not going to school, then why does New York City need to pay teachers and the horde of staff weenie administrators? Time for laying them off, or at least stopping hiring and recruiting of teachers and admin-types so long as New York City is a sanctuary for invaders as a priority over what are technically Americans.

I de H8 when we use immigrants term, or calling Trannies by their preferred sex
Is it time for pitchforks and torches yet?
I’ll settle for copious amounts of tar and feathers.
keep voting Dem …. get more of this
understand this area is/was red
but … don’t think this won’t spread
to other areas… and now they will
register this invaders to vote…
gotta keep the Dems in control dontcha know ….
This is what you get with a lousy governor and a mayor with an IQ of 80. NY deserves all it gets from every source because they have reaped the wind and we all know what’s coming.
What’s the problem? Priorities, people. And we’ve known these administrations’ priorities for a long time.
I feel no pity for those who’ve essentially voted for this. The saddest, scariest part of all? They will continue to vote Democrat. Too bad the rest of us have to suffer for their ignorance, stupidity and greed [‘where’s my free?”].
How did they get the school district to agree to this? Do they have a law that allows government to do this when there is an emergency? Furthermore, why didn’t they us a warehouse??
The building belongs to the Department of Education, which the mayor controls. He appoints the Schools Chancellor and can fire him at will.
