Bus vs. Plane: Eric’s Double Standard

Mayor Adams routinely gripes about Gov. Greg Abbott (R-Texas) busing 37,000 migrants to New York City, even claiming he’s trying to “hurt black-run cities” by overwhelming them with border-crossers.

But the mayor is silent about President Biden sending even more “asylum seekers.” (Is it also racist when a Democrat does it?)

Fact is, the feds pay the many charities and activist nonprofits that also bus migrants from the border to cities in the interior. And Biden’s Homeland Security Department has also flown 33,000 migrants straight to New York.

In all, the Center for Immigration Studies reports, DHS has let 386,000 migrants fly from foreign airports to cities across the country these last two years, via the Advanced Travel Authorization Program. It’s done through the CBP One app, and lets migrants fly without even having to show photo ID.

Biden is ultimately responsible for all the migrants Abbott has sent here, too: Joe’s the one who issued a series of executive orders in his first days in office that opened the border to the “asylum seeker” flood, and has since added things like the CBP One app and “Advanced Travel” program to speed up and conceal the influx.

OK: Adams has hit Biden for not helping cover the city’s multibillion-dollar migrant costs, etc., but he refuses to call out the president for driving the whole mess.

To add insult to injury, the mayor proudly admitted to voting for Biden in the presidential primary. It’s a funny way to answer Biden for flipping the middle finger to New York.
