Representatives Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Jerry Nadler got the shock of their lives yesterday as they tried to conduct a midtown press conference as protestors quickly gathered to shout them down. They didn't get the reception they expected. As AOC and Nadler tried to speak they were drowned out by chants of “close the border.” The Roosevelt Hotel was the latest hot spot as illegal migrants were housed there. Some describe the hotel as a "major league shit house."

Two weeks ago, Curtis Sliwa was arrested for leading one of these demonstrations.
Speaking at a community meeting last week, New York City Mayor Eric Adams was blunt . “Let me tell you something New Yorkers, never in my life have I had a problem that I did not see an ending to.

He warned that every community in the city would be hurt by the crisis, saying, “This issue will destroy New York City.”

Yeah, you get enough constituents riled up and they tend to want to express themselves. Or were you suggesting that the crowd was there in adulation?

Seems rather far to travel for something like that, but the educational system here in Texas is pretty good...

That's why some inquire of a good conservative state education system.
Who knew that New Yorkers had so much hate in them?
It's just a few, statistically they're irrelevant...
The guy in the grey hoodie certainly appeared to have a lot of hate for himself.
If I hadn't recognized some of the background sights, I would have thought that this was on Staten Island instead of Manhattan.
No more than the typical leftist that gets hit with a high dose of Brandon's reality.
