    Simple. Start killing the illegal aliens. Kill them and the kids
    too. Kill them all.

    Two more buses carrying migrants arrived early Friday morning at the
    Port Authority Bus Terminal, despite a new executive order from New York
    City Mayor Eric Adams targeting the influx of bus arrivals.

    Adams's executive order, signed Wednesday afternoon, requires charter
    buses transporting migrants to give the city at least 32 hours advance
    notice.

    Friday's buses arrived at 2 a.m. and 4 a.m., even though the order also
    sets perimeters around dropoffs: between 8:30 a.m. and noon Monday
    through Friday at one designated spot within PABT.

    "Those who knowingly violate [the executive order] do so at their own
    peril."

    There is a 32-hour grace period, however, so the buses on Friday morning
    will likely not face any penalties.

    But Lisa Zornberg, chief counsel at City Hall, said the Adams
    administration is serious about enforcing these new rules.

    "Those who knowingly violate it do so at their own peril," Zornberg
    said.

    If these buses carrying migrants arrive outside this time frame and with
    no advance notice, the operators could be charged with Class B
    misdemeanors, possible fines, lawsuits, and their buses could be
    impounded.

    "The NYPD has a variety of tools at their disposal, including seizure of evidence and impounding of evidence, but this is going to be treated
    like any other law," Zornberg added.

    This comes after 14 buses arrived in just one day last week – breaking
    the previous record. And more than 7,200 migrants arrived here in the
    city in just the last two weeks, many of them sent by Texas Governor
    Greg Abbott according to City Hall.

    The Legal Aid Society said they agree that better coordination is needed
    but are worried that this could lead to some migrants being dropped off
    in random areas.

    "We don't want any other extreme issues that could occur, such as bus
    drivers dropping people in unsafe places," said Stephanie Rudolph, an
    attorney with Legal Aid. "But overall, we understand wanting the city to
    have a little bit more communication around arrivals."

    Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson said his administration has already
    implemented a similar policy, and this prompted Texas Gov. Greg Abbott
    to pivot and send migrants to the suburbs surrounding the city.

    The Adams administration said they are aware that something similar
    could happen here in New York and are urging counties like Westchester
    to issue their own executive orders to limit buses carrying migrants.

    They will be having a conversation with surrounding states like New
    Jersey as well.

    "It is not our intention to shift any burdens," said Camille Joseph
    Varlack, the mayor’s chief of staff. "But we have no idea. It's quite
    frankly unpredictable."

    The Adams administration also mentioned that they had reached out to
    Abbott about a year ago on this migrant issue and sending buses – but
    Abbott did not respond.
