Two NYPD officers were shot overnight in East Elmhurst, NYC, in AOC’s district, by an illegal immigrant living at a former Marriott, now a migrant shelter. The shooter had recently entered the US via the border crossing at Eagle Pass, TX. The incident has sparked criticism of current immigration policies from various political figures, including NYC Mayor Eric Adams, who reflected on the shooting. The event has also reignited debates over sanctuary policies and no-bail laws in New York. Critics are calling for President Biden, Governor Hochul, and Mayor Adams to change their policies.
