In this clip from The Bald Brad Show, Mayor Eric Adams has asked the federal government for $1 billion to handle the crush of migrants who’ve surged into the Big Apple this year — but the cost was calculated when the population was far less than it is now and before a judge decided to open the floodgates at the southern border, The Post has learned.

The Federal Emergency Management Agency confirmed Wednesday that its Emergency Food and Shelter Program’s National Board received the city’s funding request and was “reviewing their application.”

But FEMA “does not share information regarding pending applications and will only share award amounts upon application approval,” a spokesperson said in an email.

Adams first floated the $1 billion price tag for providing shelter and other services when he declared a state of emergency over the city’s migrant crisis in October. The city’s estimated migrant population then was around 17,400.

As of Sunday, that number had ballooned to more than 30,300, with over 20,900 living in taxpayer-funded shelters, according to City Hall.
