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

Awesome, nothing like hiring an illegal immigrant for the market place, right? Wonder why it is that California and NY lead the nation in homeless since they are the bastions of liberalism, where are the jobs?
Homelessness is mostly a mental illness issue, sadly we don't have robust residential treatment facilities to help these people live better lives. We treat them as other or criminal.
 
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.

Is it? What was the illegal immigration population in early 2019 versus now? Do you think Covid might have anything to do with anything?
 
Document that claim.

The 5 areas with the most homeless are the District of Columbia, New York, Hawaii, Oregon, and California.

(Whitehouse)

The rates of homelessness are higher in those states by up to 5.8 times the average US rate of homelessness.

Indeed, the District of Columbia has a rate that is 5.8 times higher, New York is 2.8 times higher, Hawaii is 2.7 times higher, Oregon is 2 times higher, and California is 1.9 times higher. https://policyadvice.net/insurance/insights/homelessness-statistics/
 
i wonder if Abbott would arrest a legal Hispanic American citizen if they drove an illegal from the border to Dallas.
 
Abbott got played... Did he not think there were reporters who would interview these guys?


No you continue to be played by the liberal rhetoric and total ignorance of liberal economics

no, Abbott got played and gave some guys a free ride.

don't you talk a lot about taxpayer's $$$$ ?

Yes but what is frustrating is people cheer the fact that NY and California have such large economies, among the best in the world, all under Democrat Control but they cannot solve the homeless problem, why? Answer, liberalism is a fraud
 
How about we approve 100,000 work visas instead and let them come here legally without gumming up our court system with phony amnesty claims? They would be paying taxes.
 
And what are those places doing wrong to cause homelessness in your view?
 
Doesn't matter. Fauci says hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants being seeded all around the country are absolutely no covid risk to us citizens.:rolleyes:

Who do you suppose is pulling Fauci's strings? 🤥

Incredible taxpayer funded social spending programs!! No consequences for able body people not working

So this just made me laugh and think of this scene.


I know, I'm strange.

Kudos for calling them illegals.

Biden is setting records


And no, I don't think it has anything to do with COVID. Biden has thrown the doors wide open and invited everyone in. That's the cause.

If he drops the Title 42 actions, his own administration predicts 18,000 illegals a day crossing the border. 18,000 a day!
 



As a resident of TX, thank you Governor Abbott for making the border issue a national one
Using people as pawns for political gain. Republicans are the scum of the earth.
 
HEY. OTHER GUYS. THERE IS A EMPTY BUS IN DC GOING BACK TO TEXAS. HITCH A RIDE FOR FREE!!!

If Biden has "thrown open the doors and invited everyone in", why do they keep getting apprehended at the border over and over and over instead of being simply waved though?

Great simplistic analysis. Cost of housing and mental illness have nothing to do with it, it seems.
 
Blue cities seem to have a corner on the homeless situation as California and NY also lead the nation in that category as well but don't let facts get in the way of your partisan BS
Homeless folks flock to blue cities because the few red ones would let them starve to death.

I call it consequences for poor personal choices made, taking care of people in need is indeed the responsibility of the citizens in the city or state not the federal taxpayers. You feed a person he eats for a day, you teach them to fish they eat for a lifetime
 
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
I'm not buying it. It's not like everyone that comes in from Mexico desires to settle in Texas
