Nearly 2,000 migrants being sheltered in a tent shelter in New York City are being transferred to a nearby high school, where the students will have to pivot to remote learning due to the disruption it is causing – sparking outrage from residents and local politicians.

New York City Mayor Eric Adams’ office said it is moving 1,900 migrants from the tent shelter at Floyd Bennett Field for safety reasons due to the incoming storms and potential high winds. According to the New York Daily News, Adams told reporters that it was being done out of an "overabundance of caution."

"We want to make sure people are safe," he said. But it is controversially moving them to James Madison High School, which confirmed it was being used as a "temporary overnight respite center" and would be closed as a result on Wednesday -- with students being forced to "pivot" to remote learning as a result.

And soon the invaders will start begging the neighbors for food because the chow at the school doesn’t meet their standards.

“This is f—ed up,” said a local resident who identified himself only as Rob.

“How does it feel that you kicked all the kids out of school tomorrow? Does it feel good? I hope you feel good.” Who gave her name as Michelle.

Said a local dad, “How do you feel stealing American tax money?”

I’d like to know who Rob, Michelle and the local dad voted for in the last election.

You can be sure of this: That school will be destroyed by these migrants - AND they are being bused in to replace. Make no mistake about THAT.

"We want to make sure people are safe,"

The question is, which people?

I would not allow my child or grandchild to go back into that building again. Lord only knows what kind of disease may be contracted, or a stash of drugs laced with Fentanyl.

Well, maybe if Hunter Biden conducted a search for drugs.

...”sparking outrage from residents and local politicians”

...Why? The residents voted for it. The politicians were all for it. Do they expect me to believe there is even 1 official who is the slightest bit conservative that was against this BS? If so, 1 or 2 at best?

There will be vandalism, fecees, urine, garbage everywhere.

But, go ahead and ask the parents to come clean it up so their children can resume their taxpayer funded education.

Screw Americans and their pathetic black and white kids, right, ERIC????
