Movin' on Up: Prominent American Sanctuary City Now Sending Illegal Immigrants to Canadian Border

New York City Mayor Eric Adams has been all over the map in his public comments regarding the Biden administration's disastrous border crisis, boasting at first about New York's "compassionate" sanctuary policies while attacking Republican governors – then pivoting to critiquing the federal government's handling of the problem. On numerous occasions, he's whined about the various stresses the influx of illegal immigrants has placed on his city's resources, with little apparent awareness of how much worse it has been for border communities. He even explicitly stated at one point that this ought to be Texas' problem to handle, assailing the Lone Star State's governor for rudely exporting a small fraction of the crisis to a number of deep blue cities around the country. As Julio noted yesterday, Adams is still complaining about the "burden" the crisis is placing on New York officials and taxpayers. There's "no room" left for them in the Big Apple, he's said. I'd imagine Gov. Abbott and a number of border city mayors would like a word, even as Adams has started to partially understand what they've been experiencing in their communities in recent years.
