The Situation: The state’s use of Randall’s Island and Floyd Bennett Subject to accommodate migrants.

How can Gov. Hochul and her cronies justify taking $20 million per 30 days (not per 12 months) out of taxpayers’ pockets for the “complicated” on Randall’s Island (“Kick off,” Aug. 21)?

The place are the checks and balances throughout this fiasco? When will this mugging of taxpayers finish?

The “migrant” disaster in New York Metropolis and the tragic wildfires on Maui have a couple of issues in frequent: They’re in deep-blue states, their terrible circumstances haven’t any political upside for Democrats and, on the highest authorities ranges, they’re being ignored by Dem politicians.

The place have New York Sens. Chuck Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand been whereas greater than 100,000 largely unvetted border-crossers have flooded the Huge Apple?

Lastly, now we have the celebration’s “chief,” hardhearted President Biden, mumbling uncaring feedback between holidays.

Why are Democrats paying so little consideration to the horrific plight of their loyal constituents? As a result of they will.

Pols determine these poor, struggling peons may be handled like rented mules and so they’ll nonetheless vote blue. Thus far, the cynical Dems have been proper.

Hochul is permitting 2,500 illegals into a big space, Floyd Bennett Subject, that’s surrounded by giant communities of hard-working households with kids.

Can she personally vouch for all these illegals as nice, upstanding individuals? Did she examine to see if each was vetted earlier than she lets them roam round our neighborhoods? Completely not. She is aware of nothing about them.

Take them as much as Albany — or, higher but, develop a pair and simply say “no” to permitting any extra unlawful immigrants into our state.

Say “No extra room on the inn.” And: “Go elsewhere.” Then shut our state’s borders. Hochul and the mayor should be ousted earlier than our nice state is in the bathroom.

New York Metropolis ought to take away all public golf programs to construct tent cities. Preserve decreasing enjoyable areas and actions for New Yorkers. There’s a lot area and cash in New York Metropolis that they don’t know what to do with all of it.

The bleeding-heart liberals love unlawful immigrants.

It’s time for the state Legislature to right away take away New York Metropolis’s sanctuary-city standing.

Mayor Adams should be proactive in turning round these buses of immigrants and sending them to Delaware.

To show the town’s soccer fields and baseball diamonds into tent cities is morally mistaken. Our youngsters deserve a mayor who would battle for them.

That is all on Biden. What sane particular person desires open borders?

You’ll be able to clear up a few of the migrant housing drawback in New York Metropolis by sending a couple of busloads to Wilmington and Rehoboth Seashore in Delaware.

I heard it’s very nice in Rehoboth this time of 12 months. It’s coming to the tip of the summer season season, so there will likely be a big quantity of housing opening up.

Why cease there? A few busloads on the White Home would have a pleasant impact. It might additionally give Biden an concept of the issues he created.

Don’t play good, as a result of he definitely isn’t.

Hey, New York, are you bored with coping with these unlawful aliens?

Bored with the associated fee? There’s a easy answer. Ship them again to Mexico. They acquired into my nation illegally. Ship them again.

The Biden-Harris administration is intentionally overwhelming the system to break down it.

The administration doesn’t care what the open border is doing to frame communities and medium and enormous cities removed from the border.
