Yesterday New York City Mayor Eric Adams made quite a pivot compared to his rhetoric from shortly before he was elected mayor.
How it started:
"We should protect our immigrants." Period.
Yes, New York City will remain a sanctuary city under an Adams administration. #EricOnNBC

Libs in northern states obviously would prefer the consequences of policies they support be confined to border states. So much for Adams’ welcoming “sanctuary city”:
Hizzoner, who earlier this week blasted the White House for turning its back on NYC, sounded the alarm on the multi-billion-dollar cost to the Big Apple budget during a visit to Washington, DC on Friday, where he plans to press the administration for federal aid.
“The city is being destroyed by the migrant crisis,” a distressed Adams said before his scheduled meeting, during a panel discussion hosted by the African American Mayors Association.
Warning: Epic backfire in progress.
NYC is a sanctuary city. Send more.

NYC is being destroyed by the Democrats and their actions and policies—like so many other cities across the US.

Well, well, well. If it isn’t the consequences of my own actions.

And of course Adams wants taxpayers everywhere else to be forced to fund the “fix” to the problem (which won’t be to secure the border).
