President Biden won’t cough up major federal assistance to help New York City address the migrant crisis until after the 2024 presidential election, a prominent lawyer with close ties to Mayor Eric Adams’ camp claimed Wednesday.
Criminal defense attorney Arthur Aidala, appearing on the 770 WABC’s “Sid & Friends in the Morning” radio show, said a City Hall official relayed to him that the White House told Adams to suck it up until Biden is re-elected.
“I don’t think I’m betraying any confidences… They were on their hands and knees behind closed doors begging,” said Aidala, who is particularly close to Adams’ confidante and former chief of staff Frank Carone.
“And basically the word they got back was, `Hang on for a year. If Biden gets re-elected, he will cut you a check for a lot of money. But we’re not doing it until after the presidential election,,'” said Aidala.
“They’re going to Albany asking for help. They’re going to DC asking for help. They get bupkus.”
Adams on Wednesday said the city’s costs to aid the migrants could swell to $12 billion over three years
The city has opened 194 sites, including 13 humanitarian relief centers — which are operated by the public hospital system — to accommodate the asylum-seekers.
Nearly 100,000 migrants, including 57,300 currently in the shelter system, have been processed in the Big Apple.
Meanwhile, Aidala said a high ranking City Hall official told him the city is struggling to even find enough contractors to run the growing number of emergency migrant facilities.
“I was with a very high ranking official yesterday from City Hall, who spoke genuinely to me and said, `We’re at wit’s end. The issue is not just finding places for these people. But when we find places for people we can’t find anyone to run the thing,'” Aidala said.

It's like if you are at a swimming pool - and someone pisses in it.
Big deal... It's a huge pool. But if everyone starts pissing, every hour, every day - pretty soon the pool is going to be a hazardous, disgusting place...
NYC is that pool... and it's getting pretty gross, slowly but surely...

A friend of mine works in the north Bronx, and it's not bad there (yet). They offered her a promotion with a large salary increase, but it would have required her to be in Manhattan a couple days a week. She told them to pound sand. Now she's looking to move to NJ. In her field (healthcare) it won't be a problem, and she's got *very* sought-after qualifications. Next step for her will be a C-level position but she won't do it in New York regardless of salary or resume enhancement.
It's only a matter of time before it becomes impossible to do business in NYC.
I'd like to see more buses out to the Hamptons, Aspen, Malibu, Santa Barbara, Martha's Vineyard, Nantucket and of course Rehoboth Beach too.
What I really don't get is, most of the refugees are Spanish speaking. Seems like lots of business need people, and have learned to deal with employees who speak Spanish and have limited English. Could be this is just an approach/organizational problem. They're paroled waiting their immigration court date, they´ve got permission to work legally in the US. Hook up with the employers who can hire them, then help them find them a place to stay where they can get to their job on the bus or train.
American employers take advantage of the never ending source of cheap labor, Low-Skilled Immigrants.
The more workers coming in over the border reduce the price of work their cheap labor raises economic output that benefits Americans.
Problem solved.
THE UNDENIABLE REALITY IS:
“Historically, the United States has encouraged and weaponised Cuban emigration.
Cuban migrants fuel US propaganda about the failure of socialism and about political persecution and the lack of freedom and human rights on the island.”
UNDENIABLE
The “sanctuary “ cities/states are demanding federal aid (money). 1) we already run a Trillion $ deficit; 2) IT’S TAXPAYERS’ MONEY THEY ARE DEMANDING from all states. These Liberal/Progressive/Democrat run places brought this on themselves.
Rather than send Billions of $$$$ to them how about that money be spent to finish The Wall and really close The Borders? The mob of illegals that are already here is another kettle of fish that politicians won’t have the will to deport in-mass. We never hear in the MSM how much it costs schools and hospitals’ERs to deal with this.
The Feds spend a Billion here and there like it is chump change.
What Biden and the left are doing is mocking Americans daily. This would be an excellent political stunt: send 50 illegals to Martha’s Vineyard while Kamala has her Uber Fundraiser there. In each sanctuary city when big Dem Fundraisers are help, fly in a plane load of the expected new Dem voters, and be sure a film crew is there to document it.
Really mad as hell about how the Left is drastically changing us from America to Amerika with a permanent ruling class.
These are economic immigrants looking to improve their lives at the expense of the Americans whose job they take.
I feel like if ppl want to come and create a better life for themselves and their families - then welcome them with open arms. If you want to come and contribute to the influx of crime, drugs, etc - then send ‘em back wherever they come from.
