Biden administration 'can't find' 500,000 migrant kids as Eric Adams changes sanctuary city policies
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] Eric Adams
...Hizonner da Mare of Noo Yawk. As a Manchurian candidate, Hizonner was all in favor of law and order and that kind of stuff. Once in office, a bunch of his friends found cushy jobs with the city, the windows kept getting broken, and Soros-funded DA Alvin Bragg remained right where he was. Most people comfort themselves with the thought that he's not Bill di Blasio but that's pretty small comfort with kids who actually go to school getting bumped off while standing in front of them. But he's a Dem, so the rubes will vote for him next election too, so he's what they deserve...
claimed the Biden administration has lost 500,000 migrant children as he announced plans to use executive orders to stop some of the Big Apple's 'sanctuary city' policies.

Adams met with Donald Trump's incoming 'border czar' Tom Homan on Thursday, with the Democratic mayor expressing an enthusiasm to work with the incoming administration amid the president-elect's promise of mass deportations.

Following the meeting Adams defended his recent efforts to work with the Trump administration while taking a swipe at the Biden White House for its inaction on the migrant crisis.

'We have 500,000 children who have sponsors in this country that we can't find. We can't find them,' he said.

'We don't know if they're doing child labor, sex crimes, being exploited, 500,000 children,' Adams reiterated.

'There is a level of hypocrisy for people who say they want to protect everyone. I want to support innocent children and those who are victims of crimes. Those who don't understand that, it's not up to me to try to convince them.'

In the weeks since Trump´s election win, Adams has mused about potentially scaling back the city´s so-called sanctuary policies and coordinating with the incoming Trump administration on immigration.

'New York remaining a sanctuary city is determined by the city council, I'm going to attempt to use my executive orders to go after dangerous people committing violent acts against migrants, asylum seekers, longtime New Yorkers, and undocumented immigrants. No one should be a victim of crime in this city - particularly violent crimes.'

He has also said migrants accused of crimes shouldn´t have due process rights under the Constitution, though he eventually walked back those comments.

The mayor's meeting with Homan, who will oversee the southern and northern borders and be responsible for deportation efforts in the Trump administration, came as Adams has welcomed parts of the president-elect's hardline immigration platform.

Adams told reporters at a brief news conference that he and Homan agreed on pursuing people who commit violent crimes in the city but did not disclose additional details or future plans.

'We´re not going to be a safe haven for those who commit repeated violent crimes against innocent migrants, immigrants and longstanding New Yorkers,' he said.

'That was my conversation today with the border czar, to figure out how to go after those individuals who are repeatedly committing crimes in our city.'

The meeting marked Adams' latest and most definitive step toward collaborating with the Trump administration, a development that has startled critics in one of the country's most liberal cities.

The mayor further stunned Democrats when he sidestepped questions last week on whether he would consider changing parties to become a Republican, telling journalists that he was part of the 'American party.' Adams later clarified that he would remain a Democrat.

For Adams, a centrist Democrat known for quarreling with the city's progressive left, the recent comments on immigration follow frustration with the Biden Administration over its immigration policies and a surge of international migrants in the city.

He has maintained that his positions have not changed and argues he is trying to protect New Yorkers, pointing to the law-and-order platform he has staked out throughout his political career and during his successful campaign for mayor.

At his news conference Thursday, Adams reiterated his commitment to New York´s generous social safety net.

'We´re going to tell those who are here, who are law-abiding, to continue to utilize the services that are open to the city, the services that they have a right to utilize, educating their children, health care, public protection,' he said.

'But we will not be the safe haven for those who commit violent acts.'

While the education of all children present in the U.S. is already guaranteed by a Supreme Court ruling, New York also offers social services like healthcare and emergency shelter to low-income residents, including those in the country illegally.

City and state grants also provide significant access to lawyers, which is not guaranteed in the immigration court as they are in the criminal court.

Still, Adams´ recent rhetoric has been seen by some critics as an attempt to cozy up to Trump, who could potentially offer a presidential pardon in his federal corruption case.

Adams has been charged with accepting luxury travel perks and illegal campaign contributions from a Turkish official and other foreign nationals looking to buy his influence. He has pleaded not guilty.

Homan, who was Trump´s former acting U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement director, also met this week with Republicans in Illinois, where he called on Gov. J.B. Pritzker and Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson, both Democrats, to start negotiations over how Trump's mass deportation plans, according to local media.

Separately, New York City officials this week announced continued efforts to shrink a huge emergency shelter system for migrants because of a steady decline in new arrivals.

Among the planned shelter closures is a massive tent complex built on a federally owned former airport in Brooklyn, which advocates have warned could be a prime target for Trump's mass deportation plan.

Elsewhere, Republican governors and lawmakers in some states are already rolling out proposals that could help him carry out his pledge to deport millions of people living in the U.S. illegally.

#7 I expect that the Fed charges against Adams will be dropped on Jan 21st. He is going to be a problem for the Dems. We will see what Hochul, James and Bragg do about the sanctuary stuff.

#10 As much as I'd like to link the stream, I am going to respect their privacy to promote themselves as they see fit; they take a lot of heat as it is.

Short story, everything people suspect about the real day to day commuting in NYC especially on the subways, a person will come across 5 'Michael Jackson Impersonators' every trip to negotiate around, people just pissing and shitting in the cars at will. Like that funky meme going around about two strangers sharing a bottle of wine they found roll out from under the seats - bullshit, don't touch anything which has been on the car floor. Dystopian nightmare.

Like, remember that gal who video'd herself walking the streets to document cat calls or whatever? If someone did that in the NYC subway the censors would absolutely zap the video, bad.
