New York Mayor Eric Adams has been quietly shipping illegal border crossers out of his “sanctuary city” to other states and beyond.
Texas and Florida have been transporting illegal aliens from overwhelmed border communities to so-called “sanctuary” cities such as NYC and Chicago.
Despite offering to welcome illegals with “open arms” before they arrived, “sanctuary city” Democrats have been outraged that the issue has landed on their doorsteps.
Now it has emerged that Democrat Mayor Adams has been shipping illegals out of NYC.
According to a report from The Hill, Adams has sent migrants to Texas, Florida, and even China.
“New York City sent migrants all over the country and the world, months after Mayor Eric Adams chastised red-state governors Ron DeSantis and Greg Abbott for similar trips,” the report reveals.
"We should protect our immigrants." Period.
Yes, New York City will remain a sanctuary city under an Adams administration. #EricOnNBC

The city has spent about $50,000 for the resettlement of 114 migrant households, mostly to Florida and Texas, according to documents obtained by Politico.
Some went abroad, one even as far as China.
DeSantis and Abbott came under fire after they sent migrants via bus and plane north to blue states: Abbott sending buses to New York City and DeSantis sending planes full to Martha’s Vineyard last year.
Adams said those transfers of migrants were “part of a political ploy.”
The mayor claimed that many of the migrants did not want to go north or did not understand why they were being moved.
However, many migrants that spoke to the media disputed these claims.
Illegals sent to Martha’s Vineyard thanked DeSantis for sending them to “paradise.”
In the last year, New York City has received about 79,000 migrants in total.
Adams claims the amount is overwhelming city resources.
According to the New York Post, Adams has spent $50,000 in taxpayer cash on plane tickets to ship illegal border crossers out of NYC.
