A year ago this week, the US border crisis came to roost in New York City as the first busload of migrants arrived from Texas.
In that year, nearly 100,000 migrants have spilled into the city — and the feds have yet to send more than token assistance.
Heck, President Joe Biden won’t even acknowledge that it’s a problem, let alone actually stem the tide still arriving at 500 a day.
City Hall says the migrant crisis will cost Gotham more than $4 billion over two years.
But for all the noise Mayor Eric Adams has made, all the feds have offered is a Department of Homeland Security liaison to help coordinate a sad pittance of federal assistance.
And Team Biden hasn’t even made good on that, a week after DHS head Alejandro Mayorkas promised it.
Plainly, they can’t be bothered: New York City will inevitably deliver millions of votes and scores of millions of bucks for Biden’s re-election, no matter how he disses Adams and the whole town.
Nobody expects the liaison to be worth a damn: It’s the most pathetic token of help imaginable. But failing to even make good on that token only compounds the insult.
