-Cracked down on bad landlords
-Balanced NYC's budget without cutting major social services
This is what leadership looks like.

This is a common lie from DHS press flacks. They claim that people who came through CBP One — who registered for an appointment through a government app, went to a port of entry, and were issued a grant of humanitarian parole by a CBP officer letting them enter — "entered illegally." Total nonsense.
They can't help themselves. They lie by saying he "entered illegally." He entered with DHS permission under the CBP One program. Literally waited for an appointment to become available and entered with his appointment exactly as the U.S. government told him he should.
