First Texas bus drops off migrants blocks from US Capitol in Washington, DC

[Rawley]

Funny how some forget how things work. Congress needs to address the immigration issue.

Congress has addressed the issue. It's the Biden administration is refusing the follow the law.

 

[americanwoman]

I understand it quite well. Now would you like to answer my question or are you going to deflect again? You've opposed Biden's a government funded free trips across the entire country for hundreds of thousands?

I understand the federal government, which handles immigration, needs to move migrants around to facilities, a sponsor, or other family members and until we can address the reason for the people coming here we will continue having to give them due process. This is America where people have rights.

As you can see the previous administration also led a government funded free trip across the country. Now the "hundreds of thousands" is just your unproven hyperbole.

The Department of Homeland Security has begun flying recent border-crossers and asylum seekers to California in a program that may expand to coastal areas and the Canadian border.

It's Biden's duty to secure the borders.

Do you think people crossing the Rio Grande illegally are vaccinated and being screened for covid?

Just like you, I have no idea but unlike you I think better of our border patrol that they can handle something simple like screening for Covid.

Ironically, DC has the highest amount of homelessness.

I just learned that a week or so ago. Yes, that is very interesting, and probably very ironic.

Rather roundabout way of saying you support Biden's government funded free trips across the entire country for hundreds of thousands.

Odd then that you criticize Abbott for providing the same service.

 

[CaughtInThe]

Gave free, voluntary rides to illegals… Basically a socialist transportation program for illegal aliens..

maybe Texas needs a transportation law like their abortion law. you know, where people can collect a reward for ratting out the ride giver.

Abbott is not doing the same service. A free volunteer bus ride versus a standard immigration procedure.

Odd then you can't criticize Abbott for providing what you interpret as the same service. I understand there is a difference.

Is that the role of the state or Federal gov't? Have you ever read the Constitution?

Currently it's under the role of the federal government. However, you like your state paying for it too. Double taxed on illegals and you are proud. Go figure.

Standard immigration service? what exactly is that? Do you know the difference between legal and illegal? Are those political words meaning something different to a R or D?

First Texas bus drops off migrants blocks from US Capitol in Washington, DC

A bus from Texas arrived in Washington, D.C. Wednesday morning, transporting dozens of illegal immigrants as part of Texas Gov. Greg Abbott’s new plan to counter federal immigration policies during an ongoing border crisis.

As a resident of TX, thank you Governor Abbott for making the border issue a national one

The employers in Texas will be pissed.

I was recently in DC and was staying near the Amazon apartments going up. I am sure they can use the labor.

At least someone will be happy over what is simply a political stunt

 

[Conservative]

My state paying for it is right, spikes in Covid and cities all over the state forced to receive illegals putting a strain on social services. Double taxed? How are Texans Double taxed? The cost of a bus ride is a lot less than the social services required in the cities Biden has moved these migrants to. What do those migrants cost cities?

 

[americanwoman]

Yes, standard immigration. Do you not know previous administrations also transported immigrants, legal or otherwise, around?

Political stunt? ROFLMAO, so you think Biden is relocating people all over the country to solve the labor problem? ROFLMAO, Have no idea what it is about liberalism that creates your kind of loyalty. I grew up a Democrat and was never this loyal

 

[Conservative]

Yes, standard immigration. Do you not know previous administrations also transported immigrants, legal or otherwise, around?

So you are claiming we had this kind of illegal activity under the Previous Administration? PROVE IT

Funny how the concern for Covid aka the flu is only that much a concern when it's being spread by immigrants.

Do you think people crossing the Rio Grande illegally are vaccinated and being screened for covid?

If they are apprehended and detained, they can refuse the vaccines. Migrant detention centers are full of Covid. They estimate that approximately 1/3 of them are unvaccinated. Can you imagine when Title 42 ends how many more will illegally flood the country, and sneak over, remaining unvaccinated?

This is a crisis the Biden administration has turned the blind eye to, but you, being from Texas, already know this.

30 percent of illegal immigrants in border facilities refused COVID vaccine: report

CE distributed more than 9,500 doses of an initial allotment of 10,000 doses of the J&J vaccine.

It's not illegal for DHS to transport immigrants between their centers and/or when they are moving them to their sponsors or when shelters become full.

Look back in 2018 when Trump had to send crowded buses of immigrants into Texas cities. Now imagine this happened under Biden and how much more it would anger you.

While the US debates caravans and wall, thousands of migrants are dumped in border cities

U.S. authorities released more than 1,500 migrants this week in El Paso, including 522 on Wednesday, the largest single-day release.

www.usatoday.com

As the high-stakes immigration debates rage nationally over walls, U.S. border troops, caravans and a federal government shutdown, crowded buses roll into the downtown Greyhound station on San Antonio street.

That's where hundreds of migrant asylum-seekers were sent after federal detention centers hit full capacity as more and more people squeeze into ill-equipped border stations.

Exactly, it is easy for people not living in a border state to have a blind eye on conditions in the states that are having this problem

here is what is amazing, the double standard you have, governor Abbott sending illegals to DC vs Biden transporting illegals all over the country. such loyalty to liberalism, why?

 

[Rawley]

The extent to which Biden is allowing illegals into this country and flying/busing them is unprecedented. Read my words before your cite that Trump thing again.

I've noticed.
Their ignorance astounds.

 

[Nickyjo]

Right I am applauding an action that is caused by the incompetence of President Biden in doing his job on the border. Doesn't seem to bother you that unvaccinated illegals are crossing the border infecting Americans. Living in that bubble of yours ignores the reality of what is happening here in my state

Biden is seeking to obey law and treaty obligations on the border. Don’t like it, tell your reps to repeal the laws and get out of the treaties.
