While residents of Manhattan are required to pay hundreds of dollars a month for small flats, illegal border crossers in New York City are nevertheless given free rent for thousands of square feet of apartments and hotel rooms.

For instance, a lengthy article in The New York Times on February 25th celebrated the “resettlement” of 170 immigrant families who moved from city-funded hotel rooms to suburban neighborhoods like Central Islip, where they are receiving free rent of up to $2,500 per month.

One illegal immigrant from Venezuela was enthused about the program after moving into a roomy, two-bedroom apartment in the nearby eastern suburb from a Manhattan motel, where she and her kids had just one room, a microwave, a mini-fridge, and a table and chair.

She exclaimed to the newspaper, “To come from where we have come from and to be here.” “This may be a little flat for some, but it’s a magnificent apartment for me.”

According to Martha Maffei, executive director of SEPA Mujer, an NGO collaborating with the government to disperse migrants around the area, they are attempting to cultivate connections with landowners. However, he continued, “It’s challenging because of how costly it is.”

Many landlords fear that when government subsidies expire, they may be forced to house impoverished illegal immigrants.

In the Big Apple, true American people likewise struggle with expenses.

Certain New Yorkers are required to pay more than a thousand dollars per month for an “apartment” that is nothing more than a bedroom, lacks a kitchen, and requires occupants to use a shared restroom several yards down the hall, while illegal immigrants are receiving free rent worth thousands of dollars.

While the above tiny room, which rents for $1,200 a month, may not be typical, similarly sized apartments are going for as much as $4,000 per month for claustrophobic living with tiny bathrooms, a kitchen that’s nothing more than a breakfast nook, and a tight hallway linking them.

State and local governments have reportedly lost out on Joe Biden’s immigration problem, regardless of the scheme. While federal agencies spend billions providing free food, clothing, housing, and education to undocumented immigrants, towns and states bear the brunt of the consequences.

According to a newly released analysis by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), in the 15 years before 2020, the 2.9 million refugees and asylum seekers who called the United States home generated an 8.7% profit for the federal government, or $37.5 billion.

The same analysis did, however, also show that the taxpayers who support state and local governments suffered a $21.4 billion loss attributable to the migrants, or 7.3 percent.

Comparing the $739 billion in taxes paid by immigrants and their families to the $723.4 billion in government assistance, HHS arrived at the expenses.

However, even this alleged 2.1% profit margin was computed without factoring in several expenses related to government assistance to immigrants, including the costs of Medicare and Social Security as well as the costs of the welfare programs in which the majority of migrants ultimately join.

Every now and then a tale comes up that truly makes you cringe. That’s what this is. This story is about a man named Leonal Moreno, who is an immigrant from Venezuela (I’m not sure if he’s here legally or illegally), an open bragger who openly boasts about living off American taxpayer money, and who shouts support for the Times Square shooter. Put another way, Leonal Moreno is a supporter of attempted murder and a parasite. He declares:

“I want you to locate [his] mother and get together to pay the penalties so that the young Venezuelan knows he’s not alone when things get tough. The Venezuelan TikToker stated, “Remember that up there is a God who observes everything [down here].”

He said, “Remember that the young man is about to be released. Instead of assisting him, an entire nation is on top of him.” And you know why he’s going to be released? as he is a minor.”

No. It’s just a matter of luck that this young criminal didn’t kill anyone because a nation is turning against him for firing on innocent bystanders. Moreno is promoting the idea that the community of Venezuelan immigrants should support and console an individual who has tried murder. It is likely that Moreno believes, rightly, that throughout Job Biden’s administration, there would be no deportation for this group of immigrants, regardless of their actions.

But Moreno is far from finished:

“Moreno’s material focuses on his way of life, including how he begs people on the street for money and lives off of government assistance.”

“In a different video that was uploaded on February 21st, Moreno explained why he was coming to the US, saying, “You came here for a job, and I came here for vacation. See the difference? I didn’t come here for the same reason as you did. To make up for the taxes you failed to pay in Venezuela, you traveled to the United States.” The immigrant said in a second video that she didn’t like working since it made her allergic to certain things. In the end, none of us has money—you work, I don’t. They never stop berating us because I survive off the taxes you pay each month.”

Yes, you read it right—according to him, Moreno came to the United States specifically to fulfill his dream of becoming a parasite. A competent president would inform Maduro that we are sending his people back and that he should shut up and accept it, and the federal government would issue this little weasel a one-way aircraft ticket to Caracas. The U.S. Marshals would also see that he boarded the plane.

The border crisis has gotten out of hand. Even worse, the whole immigration machinery is running amok. Whether this is a feature or a bug, the Biden administration is obviously willing to let millions of people cross the border illegally and then disappear, with no checks, no vetting, no jokes—just some taxpayer money, a bus ticket to the major city of their choice, a free cell phone, and a pat on the back. As I have often stated, we have no clue who these individuals are, where they are headed, or what they plan to do when they arrive—many of them are young, unaccompanied males of military age.

Immigrants, many of whom are illegal, have benefited from the purported fantastic employment growth that Dems, and particularly the Biden White House, have praised. Men born in the United States who do not hold college degrees are having difficulty finding work in Biden’s economy.

These days, employers should pick the best qualified candidate, therefore, hiring legal immigrants is acceptable. There are a lot of legal immigrants who make major economic contributions. However, the New York Post calculated that up to half of the migrants taking millions of jobs are probably illegal immigrants, as 6 out of 10 of the three million more working migrants are non-citizens. These illegal immigrants are using government resources and seizing employment that could go to Americans, even though they have no right to be in the nation at all. Unfortunately, Dems and some GOPers are completely uninterested in solving the issue.

The New York Post said, “There are tremendous expenses connected with illegal immigration.” “People with that skill profile typically make modest incomes, pay relatively little taxes, and consume a great deal of means-tested benefits. The majority of illegal immigrants have low levels of education.” However, the site also stated that they steal lower-paying positions that belong to Americans.

“The long-term drop in US-born men’s labor force participation is one of the most significant social issues facing our nation… In the fourth quarter of 2019, the rate of labor force participation for males who were born in the United States but do not possess a bachelor’s degree, ranging from 18 to 64, was 76.3%. As of right now, it is still lower at 75.6%.

“And those are both much lower than the rates of 82.6% in 2000 and 80.6% in 2006.”

About 90% of these American males were employed in the 1960s, if you travel back a few decades.

Just to refresh your memory, the unemployment rate is determined solely by taking into account individuals who have been jobless for the four weeks prior to the estimate of the rate. In contrast, labor force participation comprises only those who are employed or seeking employment. This implies that the number of jobless American men is far higher.

This drop is significant since being unemployed has a long list of detrimental effects on people, their families, and society as a whole. “An increased likelihood of criminality, social isolation, and so-called “deaths of despair,” such as drug overdoses, drunkenness, and suicide, is associated with not working.”

The New York Post pointed out that assistance and disability programs, among other things, do have an impact on Americans’ attempts to enter the labor market. But the fact that all those new jobs are benefiting immigrants—many of whom are undocumented—rather than males who were born in the United States indicates that the Democrats’ open-border policies are beneficial to immigrants but detrimental to Americans in the United States. The Biden White House’s policies continue to weaken Americans and reward foreign lawbreakers.

Attorney General of New York Letitia James stated in an interview with ABC News on Tuesday that she is ready to take possession of former President Donald Trump’s property if he is unable to obtain the money to pay a $354 million judgment in his civil fraud case.

James stated to ABC News that “we will pursue judgment enforcement procedures in court, and we will urge the judge to take his assets if he does not have cash to pay up the judgment.”

On Friday, Manhattan Supreme Court Judge Arthur Engoron found that Trump had misrepresented his net worth in order to obtain more advantageous loan conditions. As a result, the former president was penalized $354.8 million plus about $100 million in pre-judgment interest.

Trump has declared he would challenge the decision. Nevertheless, before he can file an appeal, he must provide New York State with the fine as bail.

James added, “Financial frauds are not victimless crimes,” but he did not mention any victims and instead called the scam “huge” in response to a question concerning Trump’s assertion that the banks were paid back for all loans and that there were no victims in the case.

“He committed this significant scam. The amount of the deception was astounding, the variances are much exaggerated, and it wasn’t simply a straightforward error or carelessness, she contended. “If everyday New Yorkers went into a bank and provided fake paperwork, the government would throw the book at them, and the same should be true for previous presidents,” she said, posing a hypothetical scenario.

James claimed that she had her eye on the “Trump building,” which is Trump’s structure at 40 Wall Street.

“We are ready to ensure that New Yorkers receive their just compensation, and yes, I do regularly visit 40 Wall Street,” she remarked.

She shot off Trump’s claim that companies will boycott New York because of the lawsuit, stating, “Travel is up as of last I looked.” Wall Street is operating well.

“Someone once told me if you want anything done, give it to a woman,” she boasted, referencing herself, columnist E. Jean Carroll, and the troubled charges filed against Trump by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis.
