“The Democrats had abandoned their working-class base to chase what they pretended was a racial group when what they were actually chasing was the momentum of unlimited migration”.

Gov. Abbott blasts Biden's 'catastrophic open border policies' for migrant crisis
Gingrich accuses Biden administration of 'rejecting' reality
The New York Post's October 19 front-page story detailing the planeloads of young illegal migrants being secretly flown into Westchester County Airport has directly and inconveniently brought the southern border story into the wealthy suburban bedroom communities of New York. It also underlined the increasing ferocity of the progressive left's illegitimate assault on traditional America.
The story is particularly revelatory, because illegal immigration has up until now not been something that residents of suburban New York, Connecticut, or New Jersey particularly worried about. But Westchester County Airport is located in Rye Brook, N.Y. and abuts affluent residential neighborhoods in Purchase, N.Y.; Greenwich, Conn.; and beyond.
When the clandestine flights were first made public in August, Democrat county executive George Latimer at first professed ignorance, and the local media were happy to bury the story. He would only say the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services had authorized the flights. However, the New York Post's new front page story of the secret, early-morning flights of thousands of illegals, bolstered by multiple photographs, revealed the magnitude of the resettlement activities.
At this writing, Latimer had not released a statement, but the presence of county police at the airport clearly indicates that his administration is aware of the secret flights and resettlement.
Christine Sculti, his Republican opponent for county executive in the November 2 election, responded to the New York Post's story. "This is the second time Mr. Latimer has stonewalled on these critical public health, safety and transparency issues. I join residents who are rightfully fed up with his failure to stand up to the White House and his failure to protect the interests of the residents of Westchester County."
Clearly, the secret flights into regional airports were designed as a way for the White House to disguise the large number of illegals being welcomed into this county unvetted and unvaxxed. Westchester's small, regional airport was a low-key way to disperse the illegal migrants discreetly to unknown locations in the tri-state metropolitan area.
To accomplish their objectives, the federal government and its Westchester County enablers are conducting themselves in ways denied to regular citizens. The flights land between midnight and 6:30 A.M., when the airport is voluntarily closed during a curfew for commercial flights due to its proximity to residential areas. The New York Post has tracking data that 2,000 migrants have arrived at the airport on 21 flights since August 8 as well as specific times for the flights.
On October 15, the Post said one bus sped down the Hutchison River Parkway, which bars buses, at more than 75 miles an hour, exceeding the 55-mile-an-hour limit, eventually winding up in Syosset, Long Island, at MercyFirst, a nonprofit sponsored by the Catholic Sisters of Mary.
In addition, Westchester County is using law enforcement to protect the migrants. The Post reported that Westchester County Police are present when the illegal migrants deplane and are redirected to chartered buses.
Neither the federal government nor Westchester County has indicated the vaccination status of the illegal migrants being flown in. But the Democrat governors of New York, Connecticut, and New Jersey are demanding that all their legal citizens get vaccinated. In New York City, people must show proof of vaccination before dining, going to the theater, or working out.
Former Westchester County executive Rob Astorino, a current Republican candidate for New York's governor, commented, "New York's politicians are treating their citizens as if they don't belong here and non-citizens as if they do. And if you dare question them, they scream racism, because they know their policies are wrong, expensive, and sometimes even dangerous."
Current county executive Latimer has supported special treatment for illegal migrants. Within months of winning the office in late 2017, he signed the Immigrant Protection Act that limits information county law enforcement will share with federal immigration authorities and bars county employees from asking about a person's citizenship.
Over the last two years, Americans in many blue states have endured an increasing intensity of tyrannical regulations and statutes, while criminals are coddled with special treatment. In New York, the COVID pandemic coincided with the passage of no-bail legislation, which puts criminals back on the streets to commit more crimes. Former governor Cuomo and now his successor, Governor Kathy Hochul, put in place mask mandates that continue to this day, regardless of vaccination status or COVID disease levels. The new governor has now directed state officials, healthcare workers, and police to be vaccinated or be fired. As a result, hospitals, police departments, and fire departments are losing workers. The new governor signed the Less Is More Act, which makes it easier to free prisoners and prevents the jailing of convicted criminals for technical violations of parole.
Democrat politicians are intent on abusing law-abiding citizens with mask mandates, firings, and increased crime on one hand, while giving increased leniency and privileges to lawbreakers.
The clandestine flights of illegal migrants into Westchester County Airport, the lack of vetting and vaccination, and their disbursal into points unknown in the New York metropolitan area are one example of an agenda that has violated the normal guiderails of executive and legislative policies. It is clear that these politicians are so intent on implementing their agenda before they get voted out of office that they care not for the welfare or safety of Americans, nor for the financial burdens their policies inflict.

Psaki Confirms Illegal Immigrants Being Flown to New York in Dead of Night
Explore the topics mentioned in this article
White House press secretary Jen Psaki on Tuesday confirmed reporting by the New York Post that the Biden administration has been quietly flying underage illegal immigrants from the border to New York in the dead of night.
During a press briefing, a reporter asked why the administration is “flying thousands of migrants from the border to Florida and New York in the middle of the night.”
“Well I’m not sure it’s in the middle of the night but let me tell you what’s happening here. It is our —” Psaki said, before the reporter interrupted with various “very early” morning times that flights have taken place.
“Here we are talking about early flights, earlier than you might like to take a flight,” Psaki said. “It is our legal responsibility to safely care for unaccompanied children until they can be swiftly unified with a parent or a vetted sponsor and that’s something we take seriously.”
She said the administration has a “moral obligation” to carry out the reunification process and noted that the Office of Refugee Resettlement has been facilitating travel for children in its custody to their families or sponsors across the country in recent weeks.
While Psaki emphasized that the administration is legally obligated to care for children, the Post report indicates that some of the migrants appeared to be men in their 20’s.
Psaki confirmed the New York Post’s reporting that unaccompanied children were flown into Westchester County Airport and said they were “en route to their final destination to be reunified with their parents or vetted sponsor.”
She added that the unaccompanied minors can be seen traveling through several states as part of the reunification process, not just New York.
Psaki’s acknowledgement comes one day after the report detailed how the administration had been flying underage illegal immigrants to New York late a night for more than two months in an effort to resettle the tens of thousands of migrants taken into custody at the border in recent weeks.
Border Patrol agents encountered 37,805 unaccompanied minors at the border in July and August alone.
The paper’s analysis of online flight-tracking data suggests that some 2,000 migrants have arrived at the Westchester airport in suburban New York on 21 flights since August 8. Many of the planes landed between midnight and 6:30 a.m., when a voluntary curfew is in effect.
The report describes late-night flights arriving under the cover of dark, filled with children and teens. New York Post reporters watched two planes land at the airport, where most of the passengers who deplaned seemed to be children and teens, with a small number appearing to be men in their 20s.
Many of the migrants were then seen meeting with relatives or sponsors in New Jersey or being dropped off at the Syosset, Long Island campus of MercyFirst, a nonprofit sponsored by the Catholic Sisters of Mercy. MercyFirst provides housing and services for “children and adolescents who are the victims of societal problems,” according to its website, which adds that it has a contract to supply the federal government with residential services for “immigrant youth.”
Someone familiar with the situation reportedly told the outlet that underage migrants usually arrive carrying backpacks and are bused to locations in the Bronx, Brooklyn, Queens, upstate Newburgh, and Bridgeport and Danbury in Connecticut.
The report adds that many of the flights from Texas first touch down in Jacksonville, Fla., before continuing to Westchester. On Saturday, reporters saw a Boeing 737-700 land shortly after 10 p.m. at Jacksonville International Airport. A group of ten to 15 people got onto a charter bus near a quiet cargo terminal and traveled two hours to Twin Oaks Academy, a juvenile detention center in the Apalachicola National Forest near Tallahassee.
Former Westchester County Executive Rob Astorino, a Republican candidate for governor, told the paper that smaller planes first began arriving in April. Early on, the flights were not “as frequent,” he said.
He detailed a news conference he held at the airport in August during which he saw a flight arrive with at least 50 to 70 migrants, most of whom appeared to be men older than 20. The migrants boarded a bus that pulled up next to the airstairs, obscuring the view of people boarding it.
However, the White House told the New York Post that the flights only carry children and teens.
