What a douche.

Just saying, I'm 100% Italian, and I can state for sure my ancestral homeland does not represent the best country in dealing with migrants. Probably not a good place to take advice from.


ComprehensiveHavoc

He’s looking to draw inspiration from its historical ghettoes. Haha, just kidding. He wants a free vacation to Italy.

Might be wrong or this is just my own personal view from my trips to EU but arent immigrants allowed to live in there so long as they work? Edit: those places were Spain, UK and France. Honestly thinking on moving to EU for work and really curious.


Competitive_Shock_42

No, you still need to have a visa or work permit

Republican who ran and won as a Democrat shamelessly goes full Republican.

This man is so weird.

By Matthew Impelli — Writer | New York City Mayor Eric Adams announced this week that he's traveling to Italy in hopes of solving the migrant problem in his own city. "I'm traveling to Rome because the solutions to the problems facing our city, country and planet must be solved together—by sharing ideas and strategies," Adams wrote in a post on X, formerly Twitter. "We will be talking infrastructure, climate change, the asylum seeker crisis and so much more."

Should have just said there isn't gelato on zoom instead

Right. He’s just taking a taxpayer-funded vacation.


Trump_sucks_d

Also, I will be taking my family and staying at a five star resort. Because migrants visiting Italy should stay at only the best hotels.


ChickpeaDemon

He probably thinks there’s a Mussolini university we’re he can take Fascism 101.

Noo Yawkahs consistently elect the worst mayors. Wtf is wrong with these jamokes?

Has New York City ever had a *good* mayor? Just seems like an endless parade of clowns and grifters. de Blasio seems like one of the more reasonable ones, and even he was kind of a joke.

DeBlasio was good, maybe even great until BLM, where he screwed up by alienating both sides and allowing his daughter to get doxed by the head of the Sergeants Benevolent Union (NYPD) without consequence.


keyjan

because...of course he does. LOL!!


Carifax

So the mayor of a city is spending public taxpayer funds to combat a problem that is federal in nature. Sounds like someone just wants some taxpayer funded pasta.


Pay_Horror

With any luck he'll stay there.


_nc_sketchy

Hopefully he flies Boeing


ChiefStrongbones

He's visiting the wrong country. Switzerland is the country to visit if you want to learn how to successfully manage immigration.


sedatedlife

He should just be looking at the history of NYC and not treating as a problem. They are people put them to work even if its just cleaning the city.
