It’s not like they had enough cops anyway, so what’s a few less when you need them. Cuz let’s face it, you always need them.

🚨 NYC to cut overtime pay for police despite being understaffed by “thousands.”

NYC has devoted massive resources to housing illegal immigrants, and some of the migrants have touted their amenities.

…An illegal alien from Venezuela told The New York Post that he was enjoying his stay at a “migrant hotel” at the McCarren Play Center in New York City just days after NYC Mayor Eric Adams called for a state of emergency over the migrant crisis.

Well, I’ll just bet he’s having the best time! And look how far he came to have that good time, and don’t think for one second it was an easy trip. Harry and Meghan had it tough around Manhattan, but this guy’s trip, man – beats that all to pieces.

Especially the bus ride. Texas isn’t paying for luxury liners. Paid off in the end, though.

Sanctuary cities are tha bomba.

“I brought my wife and children to the pool on Sunday, and there was no problem,” Mujica said. “We all swam between 12 p.m. and 5 p.m.,” Mujica said, adding, “It’s a very nice pool.“

#Breaking : NYC Mayor Eric Adams has announced that the cities police, fire, corrections, and sanitation departments will have to cut funding and drastically reduce overtime pay so they can reserve that money for migrants staying at hotels.

Besides, as Hizzoner constantly whines reminds his fellow New Yawkers, this is all Greg Abbott’s fault anyway. Send him the nastygram.

Overtime for NYPD cops will be cut to help pay for the city’s migrant crisis — even as police battle to rein in crime that is still higher than before the pandemic.

Mayor Eric Adams’ budget director, Jacques Jiha, has told the city’s four uniformed agencies — police, fire, sanitation and corrections — to come up with plans to slash their OT costs.

“The mayor will … issue a directive to implement an overtime reduction initiative for our city’s four uniformed agencies (NYPD, FDNY, DOC/DSNY),” Jiha said in a memo sent to city agencies Saturday “These agencies must submit a plan to reduce year-to-year OT spending.”

The uniformed agencies must submit issue monthly reports to City Hall “to track overtime spending and their progress in meeting the reduction target,” the memo said.

According to projections, Adams’ announced cuts are set in stone for the November city budget modification and still open to tweaking for January and April, but would bring the total cuts to 15% if they hold. The bummer is, they’re still not going to be enough to cover what the city is spending on these illegals.

…The cuts to November’s budget modification are set in stone, according to Jiha’s letter, but while those proposed for January and April are likely, they are not yet spelled out as requirements. And even if they are implemented, Jiha maintained in his letter that they would not fully cover the expanding costs of the migrant crisis.

“The cumulative impact of these three PEG exercises will only cover two-thirds of our projected asylum secker costs,” he wrote.

Holy pool hours, Batman!

Some folks do have additional cost saving suggestions, but…’tis to laugh, no?

Do you reckon Mayor Eric Adams would be willing to cut his salary 5%?
Would any of his agency directors be willing to take pay cuts?

Citizens who have watched the rumbles breaking out among the hordes of now unwelcome illegal visitors, and the constant police presence required to semi-maintain order – while their own neighborhoods become perilously unlivable – are also just a bit put out at the thought that these very freeloading interlopers were going to be responsible for even more taxpayer misery.

…”Of course…less police…more crime..what solid leadership for NYC. When crime soars and businesses leave and the tax base dwindles…the NYC mayor will be “baffled” and go to DC to get a “taxpayer bailout” from you,” wrote a Twitter user while another wrote, “And so The Purge starts. Escape from New York.”

…”I don’t think Adam’s plan of declaring NYC a “sanctuary city” was thought through very well,” a user chimed in, and someone tweeted, “Yeah that makes sense cut police budgets during a pandemic-induced crime wave …..Abbott sends more buses to the Big Apple!”.

Well, almost like Haiti. NYC hotel pools are still operable, and the reviews are coming in from the guests are pretty schweet.
