Why? Because they're good at swimming!

(No really, that's what he said.) How do we have a large body of people that are in our city, our country, that are excellent swimmers and at the same time we need lifeguards — and the only obstacle is that we won't give them the right to work to become a lifeguard," the mayor said. "That just doesn't make sense."

But we shouldn't be surprised when the Rio Grande gets turned into an obstacle course to ensure that New York City keeps getting the best of the best.

You can’t make this up. I’m not even going to come up with any jokes. The fact that he said this in a way he thinks is helpful and/or virtuous is a joke unto itself.

Adams said what he said during a City Hall briefing, according to the New York Post, and was alluding to expediting work visas for the criminal invaders.

Was that The Bee? Good swimmers, as in wet backs? Did Adams also say blacks would be good at cleaning up fried chicken joints?

So.... “wetback” is ok again? Right up there with Jill Biden and her “tacos” comments.
I’m surprised he didn’t say New York lawns will finally be better maintained.

If he ups the salary he could get the Wetback Judge Merchan to resign and hire on.

Has Earache returned from his important trip to Italy? Although at NY state expense, he was looking for properties on Lake Como.

His announced reason was to solve NYC migrant problem. So many come from Italy you know.

Let’s suppose they really are good swimmers. Do we have any reason whatsoever to think they care about saving the lives of Americans? Because that’s another necessary condition for being a good lifeguard.

Consider that fine newcomer who committed a violent crime in Times Square and then flipped the country off. Would he make a good lifeguard?
