Recently, New York Mayor Eric Adams announced that the city has printed thousands of flyers it plans to distribute at the U.S.-Mexico border. The flyer has a simple message to illegal border-crossers: Don't come to New York.The headline is in all caps: "UPDATES TO ASYLUM-SEEKERS FROM THE CITY OF NEW YORK." The flyer goes on to say that more than 90,000 migrants have come to the city since April of last year. Now, the handout says, "There is no guarantee we will be able to provide shelter and services to new arrivals." The flyer goes on to warn,

90,000? That's all?
Texas has taken in an equivalent to the city of San Antonio. Of course, we have not been virtue signaling, even though we are paying for more schools and our property taxes are going through the roof. It is becoming an extreme burden on the people of this state to pay for the infrastructure to support so many new people.

If it's only posted in English they will ignore it. They only understand our language when it is in their favor.

Virtue signaling fail. Democrats are so dumb and shallow. And dishonest.

So, Mr Mayor, who is going to hand these flyers out at the border?
I was worried that this would increase the litter in the border states, but then remembered that there are very few outhouses in the Mexican desert.

Virtue signaling gets mighty troublesome - - when you have no virtue.
Why not try being actually virtuous? Then you won't have to worry about the signals you send out.

Can we please get the language correct. This all part of a much larger Dem plan to take permanent control of government at the city, state and national level forever. They are NOT “asylum seekers”. They are illegal border jumping aliens abetted by Biden and the Dems to be granted citizenship and to vote Dem forever thereafter.

Part of the list of qualifications that got the little dancing bear into power in New York City included embracing the Sanctuary City idea. Now that he is living his dream he realizes how stupid it was but he would not have changed a thing to get that job. The far bigger problem was agreeing to turn a blind eye to the daily murders and other serious crimes. There is no stopping that without enraging the street animals by using actual law enforcement. He would fall into disfavor with Bragg and Hochul of the Soros Party.

All the politicians who crowed about Texas being Whiny about the mass influx of immigrants rapidly changed their tunes when Abbott and Desantis started sharing the burden. Now the stay in Texas orders are flowing. Hmmm pot meet kettle.

Those flyers need to be distributed to all Americans because there is nothing factually inaccurate in it, this is why so many New Yorkers are leaving the city..

This is just a cynical political move by the Mayor of New York City who has said many times in the past that anyone in the world who wishes asylum in the USA is welcome to come to New York City. Remember there are several billion foreign people in the Third World who would like to decamp to the USA with their families to attain asylum status and essentially become public assistance recipients for the rest of their lives.
Actually what the Mayor is looking for is the Biden crew sending him as many billions of federal dollars as possible to defray the costs of untold numbers of migrants (illegal aliens) who are already in New York City and those who will come as long as Biden refuses to effectively enforce the U.S. Immigration laws and maintains his unlawful “open borders” and “catch and release” schemes along the borderline and in foreign countries. Clearly what Biden and the leftist Democrats are doing is flooding the USA with as many migrants (illegal aliens) as possible from the third world who are poor and uneducated and who fit within the minority group categories of Democrat identity politics, who Biden and the leftist Democrats intend to grant a Leftist Democrat designed “path to citizenship” amnesty and eventually transform them into future leftist or socialist Democrat voters by the tens of millions.
Understand that once Biden allows a migrant (illegal alien) into the USA to ostensively apply for asylum sometime in the future, that no Mayor or Governor in the USA has any lawful authority to tell any migrant that he or she cannot travel to their city or state and sojourn there for as long as the federal government, in this case Biden and his crew, allow those migrants (illegal aliens) to unlawfully stay in the USA. Where are the wimpy Republicans on all that?

Damage is done. What you don't hear about is the number of middle eastern Muslims who blended in with the brown skinned border jumpers. Now they parade around in their bedsheets and hijabs, burkas, or whatever. They are everywhere.

Hope that works for you Eric! I remember when Kam looked straight at a camera and (without cackling once ~ which is a miracle in itself) said very, very seriously "DO. NOT.COME". It didn't work then, it won't work now. You're in over your head, Eric.....time to just suck it up. You pronounced your city as a sanctuary so now it's time to live with it. Your asinine flyers won't stop the flow.

FL & TX should start a GoFund on shipping these parasites.
Think how much that would bring.

There was a recent Whistleblower article about 5,000 illegal trespassers in a NY hotel very near Times Square. The Whistleblower is a hotel staff who just couldn't stand keeping quiet about the insanity. Besides room and meals, the trespassers are provided with Uber funds, medical care, etc. There are 10-14 year olds drinking alcohol every day. I can just see some of the trespassers traveling to the border to bring 'family' to the hotel. 1-2 years ago NY stated that all of the homeless would be offered a place to sleep. NY pols boasted that NY provides housing, has no homeless. Now, they complain about the influx of illegals and transients. According to these 'caring democRATS,' it is the Republicans fault sooo many illegals come to NY.
