Another busload of border-crossers from Texas arrived in the Big Apple on Sunday morning — as a top city official ripped the Lone Star State governor’s policy and a former New York gov called it “brilliant.”
Thirty-one mask-wearing, young-adult migrants got off a white bus about 7 a.m. at Manhattan’s Port Authority Bus Terminal amid the ongoing public war of words between GOP Texas Gov. Greg Abbott and Dem Mayor Eric Adams’ administration about the bussed border-crossers.
City Hall’s head of Immigrant Affairs, Manuel Castro, on Sunday said the latest “bus full of asylum seekers coming from Texas” was part of a shameful “political ploy.
But ex-New York Gov. David Paterson, a Democrat, said he is impressed by Abbott’s political maneuvering, explaining that it put Adams in a bind.
“The governor of Texas, Greg Abbott, has come up with … one of the most brilliant political strategies I’ve heard in a long time,” Paterson said during an appearance on WABC 770’s “Cats Roundtable” that aired Sunday.
“I’m a Democrat. And there are a lot of things I don’t like about what he is doing. However, sometimes you have to tip your cap to your opponent.
“It has really paid dividends to him politically,” Paterson said of Abbott. “In addition, it has put New York’s Mayor Eric Adams in the position where he can’t say he won’t accept the immigrants.
“That would be going against what has been the policy most Democrats have on immigration in the first place. And if [Adams] sends the immigrants back to Texas, he is … going against his own attempt to get the federal government to help pay for the fact that they are here.”
SUCK IT! Castro, and any of dem. Accusing Abbott of performing a “political ploy” is laughable considering no illegal would set foot on American soil if they all voted Republican.
Once again, suck it.
The next destination for Abbott’s and DeSantis’ buses ought to be Chicago. And don’t drop the illegal aliens off just anywhere, go with this list, in descending order by “gun crime”:
Austin – 332
North Lawndale – 219
West Englewood – 204
Englewood – 151
Roseland – 138
Humboldt Park – 135
East Garfield Park – 134
Auburn Gresham – 133
West Garfield Park – 127
West Pullman – 116
South Shore – 111
New City – 109
Greater Grand Crossing – 101
This list is from 2016 but I doubt the neighborhoods have changed much and the numbers can only have gone up.
Governor Blinky is a putz. If NY wants to be a Sanctuary City I guess they’ll just have to suck it up.
Personally, I am beyond hesitant when it comes to democrats praising ANYTHING the Republicans accomplish.
How many illegals does it take to rent an apartment?
As many as it takes.
Back when the bean hoers used to make the summer trip, a local guy bought the old cafe and had 40 or more mexicans living there. No showers just 2 bathrooms. $5 a day per head. Every Friday he would load them in the back of his pickup and drive them to the grocery store, where they could cash their checks and sent money home. Might take 8 – 10 trips. But for $6000 a month, it didn’t take long to pay the building off.
Tax payers will be footing the bill, but sanctuary cities and dumb politicians need to feel the pain that Biden’s puppet master is causing on hard working Americans and their lives. Dumping humans in the middle of the dark night, unannounced is the work of moral defectives that should never hold a leadership postion in any part of America.

A few years back Iscoffed up a tax acquired house for $5k.
I rented it to 20 Legals from Guatemala working at pre-commercial forest thinning. $200/month per head.
Cha-ching!!!!!
It still does not sound to me like any Dem, even Paterson, recognizes the problems with the massive numbers of illegal aliens with an open border. Instead of a lesson learned about that, they look at it purely politically.
Great
Sharing the misery goes both ways, bitches.
How do you like Joho’s border security plan now?
Only 31?
Hey, Abbott!
We need need to make sure ALL buses headed to the left coast are filled to capacity!
