Thousands of James Madison High School students are kicked out of their NYC building to make room for 2,000 migrants evacuated from Floyd Bennett Field due to storm threat

New York City kicked students out of a Brooklyn high school in order to relocate nearly 2,000 migrants housed at Floyd Bennett Field ahead of a potentially damaging storm.

Republican Councilwoman Inna Vernikov posted video of the migrants entering James Madison High School without having to scan their faces the way students typically do.

'A lot of law enforcement and other agency resources have been poured into this situation tonight. Also, these children are being moved from place to place and will be forced to wake up at 4:30am to leave the school to go elsewhere. Unacceptable situation for all!'

In a statement, City Hall referred to the illegal migrants as 'guests' and called it a temporary stay.

'The health and safety of migrants in our care is always a top priority, which is why we are currently overseeing the relocation of 1,900 guests from the humanitarian emergency response and relief center at Floyd Bennett Field due to an updated forecast with increased wind speeds estimated to be at over 70 MPH tonight.'

The decision to clear the migrants out of the field came as city officials feared for the safety of the tent city at the field with heavy rains and winds gusting up to 70 mph.

Coddling these criminals at the expense of Americans is insane. But it isn’t surprising in this up-side down world.

Yup.
Remember: billions for other countries and people who hate us, nothing for Americans.

I’m old now. I wonder how this would have affected me had it happened when I was in school.

Child abuse by the government. They truly hate our children.

These are foreigners. They entered unscanned. They could plant anything anywhere... nevermind the diseases.

Why aren’t they housed in the UN? more than enough room there.

Note to Gothamites: If you want your city back you’ll first have to secure your elections.

Democrats won’t fix problems they just divert with bigger problems. Schools is just the first step , the break ins are next.

“Elections have consequences.”

Consequences are meant for someone else, more specifically the little people of flyover country. Texas, Arizona and the like.

It’s not “fair” for sanctuary cities to have to provide sanctuary. They were just showing everyone else how pure they are.

Sanctuary wasn’t meant to be taken literally.

“Taxpaying” parents who voted for this lose whatever minimal level of education this government facility is providing.
