Of the almost 252,000 illegal migrants that have come to live in New York since 2021, it was the Biden Adminstration that flew 33,000 of them into the sanctuary of New York City (NYC).

Sanctuary Madness

Just in fiscal year 2023, they welcomed more than 175,000 migrants and spent upwards of $1.45 billion to shelter, feed and provide services to them. Lately, the mayor’s office has been estimating it could reach $12 billion annually.

The Census Bureau tells us over 102,000 citizens left New York in 2023, the most losses in the nation. Even more telling, is that since the beginning of Biden’s term, there had been a massive historical exodus of 631,000 people who have moved away from the corruption and extreme leftist politics.

Since 2010, over 1,600,000 citizens have left the Empire State.

Massive Business Exodus

Between early 2020 and through 2023, 158 companies that manage $993 billion in assets moved their headquarters out of New York. The number is increasing as businesses see how Republican Presidential candidate  Donald Trump and his New York businesses are being mistreated by state officals, including the Governor, Attorney General and prejudice judges.

Congresswoman Nicole Malliotakis, who covers Staten Island and part of Brooklyn, hit the nail on the head, when she revealed that, “New York under one party, Democrat rule, is leading the nation and population loss because of reckless policies that have increased cost of living while driving up crime and reducing the quality of life.”

“Hardworking, law-abiding citizens are sick and tired of left-wing politicians putting illegal immigrants and criminals ahead of them. Little by little we are flipping seats Republican as we fight to restore balance and common sense.”

Dirty Politics

The average family of four’s monthly Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) payment is $713, but migrant families of four receive $1,400 a month in New York.

Compare this to a US military veteran who has a 50 percent disability rating and a spouse and one child receives $1,255.16 once every four weeks, according to the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs.

When a child under age 18 is added to that family, the payment rises $51 to $1,306.16 a month—still nearly $100 less than what a migrant family of four receives from the prepaid card assistance.

When NYC releases crime statistics they do not report the number of calls or criminal incidents, they publish the ARRESTS for major index crimes.

This is a typical far-left Deep State reporting tactic, especially in jurisdictions that have “Soros Destruct Attorneys” (District Attorneys whose election campaigns were financed by George and/or Alexander Soros funding).  These DAs are known for not prosecuting dangerous criminals.

Dirty Rats

One year ago, far-left New York City Mayor Eric Adams announced the city would spend $3.5 million to: 

● Appoint Kathleen Corradi as the city’s first-ever citywide director of rodent mitigation, also known as the ‘rat czar.’

● Establish a “Harlem Rat Mitigation Zone” to expand and accelerate rat reduction work across Harlem.

● Begin Harlem-specific “rat academies” so New Yorkers can learn more about how to prevent rats at their properties.

“Rats are a symptom of systemic issues, including sanitation, health, housing, and economic justice,” said Corradi, whose salary started at $155,000 a year. “As the first director of rodent mitigation, I’m excited to bring a science- and systems-based approach to fight rats. New York may be famous for the Pizza Rat, but rats, and the conditions that help them thrive will no longer be tolerated – no more dirty curbs, unmanaged spaces, or brazen burrowing.”

So what are the results after one year?

The rats, who the mayor deemed “public enemy number one,  are making people sick. Cases of leptospirosis, a bacterial illness caused by rat urine, are on the rise.

Disease Spikes

In 2023, NYC had 24 cases of the disease, the highest number of any reported year. Dr. Celia Quinn, New York City’s deputy health commissioner for disease control, wrote in the health department’s April 12 advisory that so far in 2024 there have already been six cases as of April 10. 

Harry Nespoli, president of the Uniformed Sanitationmen’s Association, reported that a union shop steward experienced such severe symptoms from the disease he was read his last rites before he made a recovery.

Since 2001, the city had 98 cases  prior to 2024. Over 25% of them occurred just in 2023, according to health department figures. The result was not good with  people experiencing acute kidney and liver failure while others had severe respiratory problems. Six people died in just over two decades.

The Bronx had the most cases, at 37, followed by 28 in Manhattan, 19 in Brooklyn, 10 in Queens and four on Staten Island.

Mayor Adams tried to claim the problem began with trash bags on the streets so they were curfewed for designated hours. They have also been experimenting with the distribution of rat birth control instead of poison.

 “There is no czar system,” said Scott Stringer, a former comptroller who is preparing a run against Adams for mayor. He pointed to Adams’s tendency to place men and women in charge of singular issues who are announced as “czars”for quick mainstream media propaganda. 

Stringer agrees with many disgusted citizens who deem Adam’s mode of operation as just “a cop-out system that convinces us, that attempts to convince New Yorkers, that a czar in and of itself can solve a major problem.”

New York, already burdened with their own bureaucracy’s illegal alien sanctuary policies, have spent taxpayer’s money to:

• Hire 19 full-time staff and 14 seasonal staff to inspect, exterminate, and maintain or clean public spaces to prevent “mischiefs” of rats.
• Purchased new equipment, like tilt trucks, to better contain and manage waste and extermination supplies, such as bait, traps, sensors, fumigation machines (including Burrow RX and CO2 machines); Rat Ice; and exclusion methods, like wire lathe around structural rat burrows and landscaper fabric designed to keep pests out.
• Eight new “Rat Slabs” at NYCHA Douglass Houses and Johnson Houses, a rat mitigation tool to harden earthen floors and prevent rat burrowing.

At the first ever “Anti-Rat Day” on August 12, 2023, Harlem resident Ruth McDaniels, to the embarassment of city officials, told reporters, “We’ve had rats the size of Crocs just running up and down the street. Like a Croc shoe? A average size eight, running up and down the street.”
