In the absence of green cards to get legitimate jobs, illegal aliens who’ve taken over New York City have figured out a new way to make a buck.
Ok, so maybe not a new way - in fact, it’s a really, really old way: hooking.
During a press conference this week, NYC Mayor Eric Adams said there’s been a startling increasing in reports of prostitution in Queens and Brooklyn, in neighborhoods with nice businesses that draw families - or, at least, they used to. Now, they draw women of ill repute trying to hustle a john to make a dollar, even in broad daylight.
One business owner told the New York Post she estimates the number of hookers on the street now has tripled in the past several months, and that the vast majority of them are migrants from Venezuela.
“It started 4 or 5 months ago,” the woman said. “From 70th Street and all over Roosevelt [Avenue], there is a lot of prostitution.”
Another told the Post that the street where he works used to be filled with families with children. Now, “It’s like a strip in Las Vegas.”
“I’ve been here for 25 years and this is the worst I’ve seen it,” he said.
The problem has gotten so bad, in fact, that government officials are now trying to figure out what to do, with Adams saying some are in favor of letting it slide because the women are “just trying to work.”

"This is where idealism collides with realism,” Adams said at a press conference. “I’ve had elected officials tell me that the women are just trying to work [and ask], ‘Why are you trying to harm them?’"
"There are real issues around illegal sex work, not only from STDs, to sex trafficking, to young girls getting involved in it, to violence,” he went on. “So people who don’t understand how serious this is, they are impeding our progress.”
When asked to confirm if illegal aliens are contributing to the rise in prostitution, Adams said the city’s migrant influx was definitely part of the problem.
“This is what happens when you create an atmosphere that people can’t provide for themselves — you can’t work, you can’t provide for your job and have to turn to illegal activities to do so,” he said. “When I talk about the spiraling impact of how this is going to affect our city, this is what I’m talking about. It is going to impact the foundation of the quality of life of our city,” Adams went on. “We are going to create generational problems based on the failure of the national government, and this is one example of that.”
It’s also an example of what happens when you label you city a “sanctuary,” demand the federal government blow open the doors at the border, and invite in anyone who can show up.

Seriously? With the increase anti-Semitic threats, rallies and attacks in the U.S. the Biden administration has decided to fight “Islamophobia” instead.
