Blue state voters are so naive. They fall for Mayorkas’s lies, & when CNN tells them the border is fine, they believe it. So they will keep electing the same morons who allow this to happen.


"Naive" is a very generous word and not the one I would have chosen.

The Constitution says you can’t be forced to house government soldiers. Doesn’t say they can’t make you house illegal aliens. Here it comes.

It really shouldn’t be that hard. Step one would be identifying owners who have misused property. Step two would be performing background checks on this owners to ensure the migrants are not housed in a potentially unsafe environment. Step three would be assigning migrant families to the appropriate home - close to strong schools, services, transportation, and retail. Finally, the city should provide some sort of monetary stipend to owners of selected underutilized properties to cover the cost of feeding the migrants, laundering, transporting them, assisting with migrant child care if needed, etc.


This all makes sense, is quite doable, and is an equitable solution; exactly what a responsible government should be doing.


So as per AOC we're supposed to present anyone with work documents, benefits, and a path to citizenship. https://www.instagram.com/p/C1rzzt_gpSf/

Then we're supposed to "adopt" a migrant or a family of migrants and get a small payment from the feds to feed, house, do their laundry, provide transportation, and childcare. What am I? Their parent or grandparent? This is not what a respnsible government does. So urban housing in the USSR - govt decided who lived where and now you people think just like that. Govt controlled residency in private housing whether owned or rented. https://kommunalka.colgate.edu/cfm/essays.cfm?ClipID=376

There’s a lot of homes with empty nesters that can be used for the purpose of housing migrants. Unused bedrooms can house three to four people. As for assistance with adjusting, providing nutritious meals, transportation, and cleaning I think given most Americans’ humble immigrant beginnings, it would be an honor to help the newest Americans.
Remember this would only be a temporary set of measures until the migrants received work permits and found suitable homes.



You're good. A++ trolling.

As it should be.

I'd love for them to try this in a wealthy area where parents are well-educated and not about to put up with this garbage. So telling that they chose a school in which most of the student body are minorities and probably poor. Those parents aren't going to put up a fight.


We did! And Martha's Vineyard got all of them out and sent to a military base in under 24 hours.

How about vetting the migrants themselves to ensure they are not a threat? We could end up with stories like this......



A better solution is to prevent these migrants from entering the US in the first place. We know that 90% of them are not asylum-eligible.
You are suggesting making the American public at large responsible for millions of migrants who have not been vetted, should not be here to begin with, and who are creating economic and security instability in our country.


And how do you determine they are ineligible? Do you think some dude named Jim Bob can just eyeball them and size them up and say "mm, ah don' like the looks of this here dude." Our current laws say there is a process for this, and a formal decision is made to adjudicate the case. It involves judges and other pieces of legal framework. And since that's the law, that's what we're stuck with. Republicans have not put any coherent proposals out there as alternatives. Nor have they allowed any of that backlog of determinations to be sped up because they refuse funding for more judges and staff to hear those cases. So we can't get rid of them, either.


You’re super-bigoted against border agents. Just because they didn’t attend an Ivy doesn’t mean they don’t matter. How would you feel if someone said that about illegal immigrants?

https://www.yahoo.com/news/york-mayor-adams-declares-state-150422558.html

Imagine what $1B would do to improve schools for our actual citizens paying taxes or for historically marginalized communities full of our citizens that could use one billion in business investment in their communities. 20% of all housing in NY is taken by migrants and the percentage keeps growing. That's 20% less housing for homeless American citizens on the streets of NY. Completely outrageous.


Our politicians need a constant supply of fresh voters in 10 years or by the time these people become citizens.

Plus how else are you going to keep the citizenry in a state of constant stress so they can’t scrutinize how much they’re being robbed by our elites.

Empty nesters are not AirBnB hosts.

So you people need to remember who pays the mortgage, taxes, rent, etc on those residences. This is the most outrageous suggestion from what? Progressives? Mass put out a call for taking in migrants. How many households volunteered? Now people such as the PP appear to be calling for mandated adoption of migrants. I thught this went out with the removal of people having to provide room + board for British soldiers. https://www.boston25news.com/news/local/governor-healey-asks-residents-house-migrant-families-amid-growing-shelter-crisis/LMTB7EWHEFF3XERMMANHYSZCBQ/

Same with the NY Times.

Amazing, really. The citizens who live in the city and pay exorbitant taxes that pay for education and are forced to educate children remotely are ignored by these publications.



DP. Why are New York residents not outraged about this? Not just the one mother in the video clip - but ALL parents? How can this be happening and seemingly no one is batting an eye?


The original headline yesterday of the NYT article was “JM high school shelters migrants and prompts right-wing outrage”.

There are plenty of reports of outraged parents just search Brooklyn school or that + fume or outrage. They weren’t even offering remote teaching - just learn on your own at home and request zoom if needed.

I used to love the NYT. Now they serve the wealthy only. I notice those migrants didnt go to the UES or private schools

The replacement is well under way.

Got to thank Biden and Harris and the democrats for the planning and execution

Not surprised the NYT covered this story by focusing on the migrants and not on the students.
There was plenty of outrage.... and not just from the right-wing.

People in NY are tired of the city using resources for children - schools, ball fields, day care centers, etc. - being used to house people in the country illegally.

Maybe more migrants will go to Maine. That state is doing some 2 years rent free apartments for migrants but migrants will have to pay 30% of the rent once they find a job. One picture showed a guy from the Congo so he must have flown from Africa to end up here. Could even be a visa overstay? IDK but the whole thing is outrageous.

I am going to guess retirement homes will be next. Surprised it wasn't the first choice again.

They are in NYC for "Right to Shelter", not sanctuary city. You don't even know what the issue is.

I love the flat-out bigotry Democrats express for anyone they deem "less-than" - and white, of course. Always entertaining to witness the hypocrisy of the left.
