Illegal immigrants refuse to leave hotel in NYC because of the services
A group of illegal immigrants who have been housed in free New York City hotel rooms are reportedly refusing to relocate to a new “mega-shelter” in Brooklyn and have resorted to sleeping in the street as a means of protest.
One migrant explained that the ‘mega’ status of the new facility is not enticing enough because the hotel had so many services that have just been taken away.
Initially, the illegal immigrants were placed at the Watson Hotel in Midtown Manhattan, but they were scheduled to be transferred to a shelter at the Brooklyn Cruise Terminal.
A number of them had refused to move along over the weekend and into Monday; however, they were joined now by left-wing activists. Because their new location had a lack of heat and bathroom space, others went to the new shelter and returned to the hotel.
New York City Mayor Eric Adams appeared to contradict those claims, but he insists the city “continue(s) to surpass our moral obligations as we provide asylum seekers with shelter, food, health care, education, and a host of other services.”
The public was apparently unaware that a ‘sanctuary city’ has a cap on its ‘moral obligations’ prior to that.
Who could have possibly predicted that illegal immigrants would have a penchant to defy doing as they are instructed and leaving the New York City Hotel?
Wouldn’t we have just assumed they would comply and follow the process being laid out before them?
In October, The Political Insider reported that shelters being set up in the city featured television sets, Xbox gaming consoles, and “culturally appropriate” meals.
The local homeless folks were actually annoyed by how decked out they were.

Do they have Xboxes? “one man vented to the New York Post,”
“The building I’m in is really bad,” he added, describing the various smells throughout the building that can be seen “just yards away” from the migrant shelters. The tents look five times better than they did before.
Critics were livid over reports that illegal immigrants were refusing to leave a luxury hotel in New York City and go to their assigned migrant shelter.
“Outrageous,” described Fox News host Brian Kilmeade, is how he felt about the situation.
He said, “I cannot believe the audacity of somebody who, after coming to our country illegally and taking a free bus ride to the number one city, would then pick and choose the free accommodations they’re getting.”
Campos Duffy agreed with Kilmeade’s opinion.
“Our priority is not American citizens,” she explained. “This is completely insane.”
Mayor Adams pleaded with the Biden administration for help in handling the overload of illegal immigrants in New York City, which he had previously described as pushing the city to a “breaking point.”
“We desperately need help from our state and federal government,” he said.
Adams described the surge of illegals at the border as a “national crisis” during a visit to El Paso, Texas earlier this month.
He said following his visit to the border, “We are now seeing more people arrive than we have ever seen—averaging over 400 people each day this last week, with 835 asylum seekers arriving on one single day alone, the largest single day arrival we’ve seen to date.”
The following sentence is pushing New York City to the brink.
How bad must it be for border states and towns seeing thousands of illegal immigrants pour over the border each day if NYC is struggling with this relatively minor influx.
New numbers released by The Political Insider on Monday show that 293,993 people have crossed the border and escaped into the country since October.
Donald Trump, the Republican presidential candidate, vowed that if elected, he would send illegal immigrants “straight back home.”
