That money could have been spent on helping our own citizens.

No one wins when illegals are dumped in another US state/city as compared to sending them back to their native countries.

New York City will spend at least $600 million on a year’s worth of shelter and services for the around 24,000 Central and South American migrants who have flooded into the city, according to new estimates released by the city’s Independent Budget Office.

Those figures reflect costs that can be as high as $93,000 annually for a four-person family staying in a shelter and with two kids attending public schools, the IBO said.

au contraire. leftists consider it a huge win if these 'migrants' end up voting for them at some later point in time.

that makes it all worthwhile.

who cares how many billions/trillions of dollars we have to pay to support them until that wonder day arrives?

This is just the beginning. Between open borders and various governments aiding illegals into the interior it's only a matter of time before the wave comes to a town near you.

Biden never flinched and with the election results why should he? The CBP officers should all go on strike and stop processing them and giving out food, water etc. i know the officers have good intentions but they are now part of the problem. I don't know how anybody with any morals whatsoever could work for them Except it is a fat pay check in relatively poor places.

Green cards for all and expedited path to citizenship....Biden's campaign pledge.

the world's population officially hit 8 billion people as of today. president houseplant is determined to let as many of them into our country as humanly possible before his term - or his brain, what's left of it - expires.

Yes, that is certainly the Dems prime motivation. And it seems people are still very willing to keep voting them in till the investment in these illegals matures. That 600 mill has to come from somewhere. I wonder what inventive new taxes NYC will have to gin up and how that will be received by the city's citizens. The people of NYC (and New York period) seem to be willing to put up with a lot.

I do agree with the OP that the money would indeed be better spent elsewhere. Like on our own citizens. But this is what happens when you vote in Democrats. It would be interesting to see this 600 mill put on a ballot as a bond initiative. That would put a finger on the citizen's pulse.

Exactly. It's just a future investment to ensure their hold on power.

The majority of people voted for this.

This is him playing the long game for the party. He isn't running for re-election, his job is to help win every election in the future. He has just been green lighted to speed things up. Joe's one term will be the gift that keeps giving.
