During a Wednesday night town hall event in New York City, Big Apple Mayor Eric Adams issued a warning about the influx of migrants from the southern border in his city.
“I don’t see an ending to this,” Adams said.
“I’m gonna tell you something, New Yorkers, never in my life have I had a problem that I didn’t see an ending to. I don’t see an ending to this,” Adams said. “This issue will destroy New York City. Destroy New York City.”
“Month after month I stood up and said this is gonna come to a neighborhood near you. Well, we’re here, we’re getting no support on this national crisis, and we’re receiving no support,” Adams said.
From The New York Post:
Adams also blasted Texas Gov. Greg Abbott as a “madman” for busing illegal border crossers to New York and other liberal cities.
“Go item for item on what Eric Adams ran for as a candidate and look at what we accomplished in 20 months: We turned this city around in 20 months, and then what happened?” Adams said.
“Started with a madman down in Texas who decided he wanted to bus people up to New York City.”
The first migrant-filled bus from Texas arrived at Midtown’s Port Authority on Aug. 5, 2022, and thousands more migrants have shown up in the rest of the five boroughs in the following months.
