Contractor hired to bus migrants

Really. This liberal went to volunteer in Texas to deal with migrants. Went with a bunch of other liberals. What DeSantis and Abbott are doing is vicious, period. Do you really think he gives a shit about whether these people face danger if returned their countries? This is a political stunt that is inexcusable, using vulnerable humans as tools for his ambition. You don’t play with people’s lives just to take advantage of people’s ignorance of complex issues. Were this the 1930s, they’d be sending the Jews on the ship St. Louis back to Germany.
Can you imagine the horror among those Jews; full of hope and relief that they had escaped the Nazis and reached a safe haven, only to be rejected and sent back? Of the 900 aboard St.Louis, 250 were subsequently murdered by the Nazis on their return to Europe.
 
I have Native American and Mexican blood in me from my Hispanic relatives in SW Texas close to the border.
What is your point in asking that question?
Ted Cruz and Ron DeSantis are both descendants of immigrants.

Are you?

Blah blah blah........you can say anything you want on the internet.

Texas has thousands of Conservative and Democrat citizens and a shit load of support centers all around the state that have been aiding illegals and migrant workers for the past 100 years.





And here you are acting like you did something?
 
Was made to sign an agreement not to talk to new york officials. Apparently just to make it harder for them to care for the newly arrived.

When these people get to Texas, or Arizona, or New Mexico....do those states have warnings?

Do those states know their conditions?

Do those states know how many children they will bring with them, or any special needs?

This is what the border states have been going through for DECADES

About time some of the other states figured out just how difficult this crap is to deal with and how expensive

We have a porous border....and refugees continue to pour over it at an alarming rate

And up to now, the whole damn thing has been left in the hands of the border states and their governors

Well, welcome to the ballgame.....you want to invite them in.....you can help take care of them all
 
If we were to stop inviting illegal immigration, all of this would go away. The law requires it by the way.

The challenge was that liberals were doing nothing. I responded with what I did in El Paso together with other liberal type volunteers. Of course there were others. The Salvation Army brought cots. Local churches chipped in with special meals. GIs from a nearby military base worked there in their free time.
 
It is a despicable act of desperation to purposely mischaracterize people electively choosing to be transported to another location as human trafficking.
Reports are that they were misled as to what was happening. What is disposable is what Abbott and DeSantis did, trying to score political points with peoples lives.
 
it's very interesting that you, obviously a descendant of immigrants and afraid to say so, is so against other families immigrating.

there actually is a word for that.

There is a process for immigrants to come to the US and it's not by storming the border
