McALLEN, Texas | Talk about ecotourism! Migrants bused to The Big Apple staying at the joint once home to financier/sex pervert Jeffrey Epstein, the wild and crazy guy said to have arranged sexual trysts for Prince Andrew of England, computer brain Bill Gates and former President Bill Clinton?
Well, yeah.
Nothing is too good for our migrants after they get kicked up to New York City by Texas Republican Gov. Greg Abbott.
This from The New York Post: [ Embattled New York City Mayor Eric Adams (Black man shown in photo below) is reportedly turning to the abandoned hellhole prison where Jeffrey Epstein killed himself as a solution to housing the relentless influx of migrants being bused into the Big Apple.
The mayor has scrambled for months to find space for at least 58,000 asylum seekers who have been shuttled to the city from states such as Texas after they crossed the southern border. His latest idea is to next use Manhattan's infamous Metropolitan Correctional Center, often referred to as MCC, which was closed down in 2021 following a slew of scandals and complaints over filthy prison conditions.
If New York Gov. Kathy Hochul approves his request, refugees mainly from South America will find themselves in a facility with a morbid history plagued by allegations of rat infestations and sewage floods.
It remains to be seen if Adams will successfully move migrants into the cells, however, after his attempt earlier this year to shift asylum seekers to the Brooklyn Cruise Terminal fell apart when the refugees refused to go. ]
It has to be a different sort of Hell to go looking for the Best in America as an asylum-seeker and then find A Movable Hell.
These migrants (men, women and children) now numbering almost 60,000 thousand thanks to a steady string of buses arriving from Texas, are struggling to make sense of the political football they have become.
They are grateful for being allowed entry, but no doubt wonder where the empathy went.
Deport them!
As cold as it sounds, that would be more humane...
