“The mayor was a sergeant at one point. He had to be to reach the point where he was,” Vallelong said. “And you would think that you would understand more than anyone else, because I guarantee you that if Push comes to push, it does not take this rank, unless it gets a fee the right way.”

“We have already spent more than $ 7 billion on this crisis alone, and the previous administration has only made $ 237 million funding to help accommodate migrants in our care and future services,” a spokesman for Fox News said on Monday. “We continued to receive the previously assigned compensation over last week.
