NYC lets immigration officials open an office at Rikers jail, a priority for Trump

NEW YORK (AP) - New York City Mayor Eric Adams ' administration is allowing federal immigration officials to operate at Rikers Island to work on gang and drug-related criminal investigations in the city's largest lockup.

But immigrant rights groups and Adams´ critics cast the Tuesday executive order as a concerning quid pro quo after federal prosecutors dropped corruption charges against the Democrat so he could help support the Republican President Donald Trump's crackdown on illegal immigration.

Adams announced plans to allow Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents to resume operations at the jail in February after meeting with Trump border czar Tom Homan, though details of the arrangement weren´t released until Tuesday's order.
 
The Rikers Island jail complex, on a hard-to-reach island in the East River, has long suffered from rampant disorder and neglect and faces a possible federal takeover.

By means of shrewd lies, unremittingly repeated, it is possible to make people believe that heaven is hell - and hell heaven. The greater the lie, the more readily it will be believed.

The receptivity of the masses is very limited, their intelligence is small, but their power of forgetting is enormous. In consequence of these facts, all effective propaganda must be limited to a very few points and must harp on these in slogans until the last member of the public understands what you want him to understand by your slogan.

Seriously, I wonder if Hochul will send in the National Guard to remove them?  I can just here AOC now, and if Hochul doesn't to hear that vitriol daily, she has to get this changed.
