• Stefanos Chen and Jeffery C. Mays of The New York Times write: “Hundreds of migrants bound for New York City took a detour in New Jersey over the holiday weekend, in an apparent attempt to bypass a city order that seeks to limit the chaotic flow of arrivals…The surge in New Jersey arrivals appears to be an end-run around an emergency executive order last week by New York City’s mayor, Eric Adams, requiring charter bus companies to provide 32 hours’ advance notice of the arrival of migrants and restricting the times of day when they can be dropped off.” You can read more here: https://www.nytimes.com/2024/01/01/nyregion/ny-nj-migrants-buses.html
• While speaking with WABC in New York, the Democrat Mayor of Edison, New Jersey Sam Joshi said that migrants arriving in his township via buses sent from Texas posed a “major security risk” because “they couldn’t be identified.” Additionally, officials were unable to determine whether the people on the buses were carrying weapons, according to Mayor Joshi.
• Department of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas basely blamed the migrant crisis at the U.S. Southern border on Texas Governor Greg Abbott—failing to accept any blame for the Biden Administration’s relaxed border security policies.
• CNN reports that the House Committee on Homeland Security is expected to formally begin impeachment proceedings against Department of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas for his failures to secure the U.S. Southern border.
• On Tuesday, Cherelle Parker was sworn in as the 100th Mayor of Philadelphia.

But can Mayor Parker’s plan be effective while Larry Krasner remains the city’s District Attorney?
