On Friday’s broadcast of Fox 5 New York’s “Good Day New York,” New York City Mayor Eric Adams (D) discussed the federal lawsuit filed over the city’s sanctuary policy and said that the law should be adjusted to allow for greater coordination with the federal government when it comes to violent criminals, but for people “who are going about following their next step on the American Dream that are undocumented. We should not be harming them at all” by denying them taxpayer benefits because they “are innocent people who are just trying to pursue the American Dream.”
Adams said that “when people use the term of sanctuary city, what we’re saying is that you have the right with your tax dollars to get the resources you deserve.”

Quite the reverse Token Adams; the citizenry shouldn't be paying for those benefits because the citizenry is innocent.
The illegal alien invader is 100% guilty.
Token Adams should be forced to pay for those benefits out of his own pockets until it bankrupts him.

Okay, Mayor Addams, you haven’t said anything this stupid in over two years. This one remark should disqualify you from running again. Not even AOC says such nonsense anymore.

“...pursue the American Dream...”
Get “documented” then come over and pursue the American Dream...

The American Dream has nothing to do with government “benefits”
Government “benefits” are the antithesis to the American Dream.

Honestly I thought he at least had better sense than that. He’s now blown his chances in the election - he might as well drop out and support... “one of the other candidates” who won’t blow it in the same way.

...they “are innocent people who are just trying to pursue the American Dream.
First, they are "innocent" because they committed a crime when they entered the country illegally. Second, the American Dream should be offered to Americans, especially when the American taxpayer foots part of the cost of pursuing that dream. Third, Adams: you're just flat-out wrong.

Liberals are always so, so heart-warmingly compassionate and so super generous with other people’s money. Aren’t they wonderful?
