NEW YORK — Colorado Gov. Jared Polis plans to send migrants to major cities including New York, Mayor Eric Adams said Tuesday, warning that the nation’s largest city is already struggling to deal an influx of people sent from Texas and other Republican-led states.

However, the Democratic governor told POLITICO shortly afterward that the state has been helping asylum seekers reach their final destinations — including New York City — for weeks. The only change has been a recent winter storm and ensuing travel catastrophe that created a backlog of migrants wanting to leave Denver, which is now being cleared.

Adams made his comments during a radio appearance Tuesday morning.

“We were notified yesterday that the governor of Colorado is now stating that they are going to be sending migrants to places like New York and Chicago,” Adams said during a radio appearance.

Interesting.  So it is not just DeSantis, and Abbott doing this.

Kind of like the George Santos stuff.  Amazing how that works.

In fairness, Polis has dismayed many wokes in Colorado for his pragmatic governing.  Given his sexual preferences, it makes him impervious from their attacks.

Local coverage, confused because I remember a different shall we say tone. Times change I guess.

The city said more than 100 migrants left on a bus transport chartered by the state Tuesday.

 

Must have packed them in.

 The term “border control” typically conjures immigration discussions on a national scale and images of walls and patrols on the U.S.-Mexico border. 
 

 But 85 years ago, Colorado closed its southern border and deployed a militia to stop other Americans in need from entering the state.

 

1936: when states understood what the word “state” meant.

After the Panic of 1893 Denver was paying to ship out people so there is a precedent.

And remember the most crucial event of late 1893:  New Year's Eve.

No, no, no -- 1892!   

 

On the bright side:  In 1894, the first Dalmatian was spotted.

That's when Columbus (the first illegal alien) landed in Eagle Pass, TX.  Got it, first try!
