Low-income New Yorkers living in public housing say newly arrived migrants have been first in line for free turkeys ahead of the Thanksgiving holiday, as public resources are strained from illegal immigration.

According to local reports and interviews, New Yorkers living in public housing are competing against tens of thousands of newly arrived migrants to New York City when it comes to meals this Thanksgiving.

“Why do we have to take the butt of everything,” New Yorker Georgia Butler told FOX5 New York in an interview. “This community is already suffering.”

“[The migrants] were first in line for the turkeys this morning,” Butler continued. “They tell you to be there at 11 o’clock. You get there at like 10:30, 10:45, but they are already out there. The line is from over there to over here.”

According to FOX5 New York, New Yorkers living in public housing have seen some 8,000 migrants move into their neighborhoods after having arrived at the United States-Mexico border and being released into the nation’s interior.

Already, low-income New Yorkers are dealing with strained resources. This week, city officials said they would offer $15 gift cards to those in public housing who have been forced to go without gas to cook meals for months.

In addition, Mayor Eric Adams has announced billions in budget cuts for New Yorkers after the city spent nearly $1.5 billion in just the last year on newly arrived migrants. By the end of next year, the city is projected to spend $12 billion on migrants.

I remember years ago when my hubby worked for a company that gave all the employees a turkey for Thanksgiving and a ham at Christmas.  However, these were employees who actually worked.  Key word being worked.  It was so welcome and helpful especially for those with young children.

The word migrant is misleading -- they for the most part are ILLEGALS and yet they are given free turkeys. I can understand giving turkeys to low income LEGAL American citizens, but this is getting beyond ridiculous and one of the reasons why people are flocking to this country in droves -- the free stuff that they feel they are entitled to. I doubt that there are many ILLEGALS who are grateful for yet even more generosity from the good ole USA government.

How about the ILLEGALS get a free turkey if they go back across the border and never are allowed to come back in?
Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

Only after serving a mandatory six months in federal prison for entering the country illegally.
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.
