We're not sure where End Wokeness got this figure, but the graphic says Source: CoStar. We're not saying we doubt it's true that New York City has turned 135 hotels into shelters for illegal immigrants. And who's paying to put these illegal immigrants up in hotels and feed them? The New York City taxpayer.
The hotels in the city must be nice. We recently did a VIP post about an illegal immigrant who was relocated with her children to an apartment in Rochester and said in tears, "It's very traumatic… Rochester no good."
Anyway, look:
Holy shlit. 135 out the 680 hotels in NYC are now shelters for illegal immigrants. pic.twitter.com/ka5izUZkFw

We guess the mayor's suggestion that people take illegal immigrants into their spare rooms didn't fly.
Wow

And they're going to give all of these illegal immigrants prepaid debit cards.
Those are rookie numbers. Texas needs to fill up all 680 with illegals.

This is the point of the Democrat party - they will import a new population of an electorate to replace and disenfranchise the American people

This is a moral violation and a violation of the 14th amendment
NYC voted for this. They can pay for it. Zero sympathy.

What a horribly broken city.

All those hotels filled with illegal aliens are funded by the taxpayers.

I wonder how they feel about this.
And when they run out of hotel rooms, they'll be setting aside apartments and houses for them.

This is a complete disgrace.

New York City is pathetic.
There is no need to be allowing more people in.
The tax payer is the one paying for these absurd hotel fees to people who are essential here to enjoy themselves and live for free.
Which means hotel chains and corporations are getting billions to house them.

This entire crisis was purposely created for the government to loot taxpayers.
This is insane. They’re destroying a classic American city in their quest to destroy America!
— Dr. Steve Turley (@DrTurleyTalks) June 3, 2024
20% of all hotels in NY.

Yeah... no big deal.
Midtown Manhattan has been absolutely ruined by this.

Even sanctuary city Mayor Eric Adams said the immigrant crisis was destroying the city as we know it.
And they’re getting paid unbelievable sums of taxpayer money to house the illegal immigrants. The hotels are very happy.

Those hotels should be considered barracks for a sitting army
— Dre (@GrAndre89) June 4, 2024
Imagine the daily cost to the city. Insane.
— Dad (@Eric3pointO) June 4, 2024
What happens when there is no more money to house these folks? Serious question. What’s the long term plan here?

And they complain that the free food and lodging are not up to their standards 😆

It's true. They were throwing out food that had been catered for them because it was no good. "Even on Ramadan we could not eat during breaks because the food is not good at all," said one immigrant. But once Adams hands out those $2,000 prepaid debit cards, immigrants we be able to pick out their own foods at bodegas, which Adams says will boost the economy.
I’m sure NYC is feeling enriched right now. That’s what they consistently voted for though, so good for them.
