Illegal immigrants landing in New York City will reportedly receive debit cards worth up to $10,000. This is madness.
Is it any wonder why so many of these people want to go to the Big Apple? They already have hotel rooms and free meals. What good could $10,000 a month do?
Have you wondered how so many of these people manage to purchase motorized scooters? Don’t ask yourself anything anymore.
The New York Post reports:
Inside Mayor Adams’ migrant debit card squandering: No-bid bank gets $50 million, border crossers get up to $10,000 each
It takes money to make money, as the old saying goes, and, apparently, it also takes money – up to $53 million – to give money away.
Earlier this month, The Post broke the story that Mayor Adams is handing out prepaid cards to migrants.
Unusually for the mayor, Adams has not personally publicized this story, and his administration has for nearly a month failed to correct several public misperceptions about it.
One misconception is that the program allows the city to distribute only $50 million to migrants.
No wonder the mayor was reticent.
This debit card program – if you read the actual contract – has the potential to become an open-ended, multi-billion dollar Bermuda Triangle of vanishing, untraceable money, used for any purpose.
It will give migrants up to $10,000 each in taxpayer money with no identity checks, no restrictions and no fraud checks.
Total madness.
@NYCMayor is handing out debit cards to illegal immigrants with up to $10,000 each in taxpayer money with no identity verification, no restrictions and no fraud screening.
Why are we handing out untraceable global money to droves of unidentifiable people?

This will only incentivize greater illegal immigration. Who wouldn’t want ten thousand?
