Military personnel were reportedly deployed to guard the Wolcott Hotel in Manhattan at the request of state officials.
On Tuesday, citizen journalist Jason Goodman, founder of Crowdsource the Truth, captured footage of military stationed outside The Wolcott Hotel.
The Wolcott Hotel, located on West 31st Street in New York City, has recently been converted into a mega-shelter for migrants.
This transformation was confirmed by a report from the New York Post, which revealed that the hotel, once a bustling hub for tourists, has indefinitely closed its doors to regular guests back in 2023 due to the ongoing migrant crisis

Words have meanings. It is not a migrant hotel.
It is a hotel were the government is using tax dollars to house illegals. ( I think that makes our government a traitor! Housing felons)

Instead of guarding our border against illegal alien invaders, our government uses our military to protect the illegal invaders, and dem voters see nothing wrong with that picture!

Pray tell. Why is the military there? Who or what is the military protecting? State official requested this? Doesn't this require the approval of the GOVERNOR? What made this necessary? Or is our government trying to 'create' an incident.

Wouldn't it be nice if they put even half the money and effort into protecting and supporting their own citizens instead of the criminal illegal alien invaders?

Rather than guard it, maybe they could level it?

What's going on? Open your eyes and look around. In what universe does it make sense for American politicians to import MORE poverty into the US, while our own citizens' needs remain unmet?
Dems have spent decades claiming to want to "end" poverty, when their real goal has always been to import more of it. Who provides "sanctuary" for illegal aliens at the expense of American citizens? No politician who believes Americans deserve to come first in their own country wants any part of that. Only the least trustworthy of politicians takes sides against citizens, as Dems are doing all across the country. In Oregon, while schools in poor communities deteriorate, Oregon politicians can afford to hand out $30,000 "benefits" to "first time home buyers" including illegal aliens with absolutely no right to be on our soil. Folks tired of being treated as second class citizens in their own country need to step up and vote out those who WANT citizens at the end of the line behind the "newcomers."

This is a ploy to have the National Guard in NYC for the Trump sentencing.
NYPD may call a sick out so they won't have to participate in that farce.

Manhattan has dozens of hotels just like the Wolcott.. It must be VERY bad in and around the hotel.

Gee, why not just change their uniform to a plain brown shirt with a cute little arm band or something.......
I know, make the taxpayer wear a gold T on their chest to make us easier to spot and sort out later. We can then be loaded on the new high speed rail to the reeducation camps.

I do believe this violates the Posse Comitatus Act that prohibits the use of the military in civilian law enforcement. But then these are democrat officials so, hey, laws don't need to be followed.

Free labor for NYC paid for by US Army but the Navy can't man all their ships due to a manpower shortage, I suspect these are related.

And the military members dutifully follow this illegal order, right?
"In the video, he can be heard questioning the presence of the military at a civilian hotel, asking, “Is the army turning this thing into a migrant shelter? Why are you guys here? It’s a hotel. Why is the army at this hotel?”
One of the soldiers responded bluntly, stating, “We’re here at the request of the State of New York.”"

#7,#10,#13~ The hour is late but just happened upon a social media article reinforcing the information posted by Ldotter #7 at 4:01 PM on 8/31/24 anticipating President Trump being “taken into custody and sent directly to Rikers Island by Judge Juan Merchan” on September 18th. Latest information “says the National Guard is being staged there because the Mayor of NYC and Governor Kathy Hochel both believe the police unions are preparing to stage a mass ‘out sick’ day in support of President Trump on September 18th because none of the officers want to be involved in the persecution of Donald Trump.” Further, “the New York State National Guard has started staging guardsmen in hotels around the NYC courthouse where President Trump is going to be sentenced on September 18th.”
