Adams has been criticizing the president as well as Gov. Kathy Hochul for failing to help the city handle the illegals and pleaded for additional funding and expedited work permits, pointing out last week that the city's requests were still mostly "unaddressed" and calling for a federal emergency and a national "decompression strategy at the border." We have a $12 billion deficit that we're going to have to cut," the mayor said. "Every service in this city is going to be impacted." But what he said thereafter was even more urgent. "They're destroying New York City. It's going to come to your neighborhoods. All of us are going to be impacted by this. … The city we knew, we're about to lose." The surge of migrants crossing the border has overwhelmed NYC, with nearly 60,000 occupying beds in traditional city shelters and in more than 200 emergency sites, according to the New York Times. Adam's office said that more than 110,000 asylum seekers have arrived in the city since the spring of 2022. "We're getting no support on this national crisis," he said. However, the Hill reported that Adams already received around $140 million in federal funding for shelters, more than any other city not on the southwest border. Meanwhile, some GOP leaders have increasingly used this criticism of Biden as a talking point ahead of the 2024 presidential election. House Speaker Kevin McCarthy even quoted Adams in a statement that argued that the "Biden Border Crisis is hurting the country." And he thinks that Mayor Adams is right. "New York City deserves better," McCarthy said. Former Republican Vice President Mike Pence also lauded the New York mayor, who's been willing to call out Biden and his administration for their absolute failure to secure the southern border.BREAKING: Mayor Adams basically conceding New York City is done because of illegal immigration and warns New Yorkers illegals will flood ALL neighborhoods. pic.twitter.com/Lj5E3BSvDX
