Gov. Greg Abbott says Texas will send migrants to Washington, D.C., on charter buses

It will probably face court challenges, but you have to admit he's a tough governor who has already made unprecedented changes to control the flow of illegal immigration and asylum seekers by using the TX. national guard, state troopers, and installing more border barriers. I read that TX is expecting at least 18,000 more to cross over their border on a daily basis once Title 42 ends. So I give him a lot of credit for trying to do more to help his state because Biden sure isn't doing enough.


LMAO... I guess he didn't feel the need to share this important little detail... Basically, he is giving free rides to illegal aliens if they want... Regular citizens can buy their own tickets...

 
I caught Abbott's presser tonight. Kudos to him for fighting back against the insanity created by this administration. I am looking forward to seeing all these chartered buses dropping thousands upon thousands of illegals off in DC daily. Maybe the Democratic majority will welcome them into the grounds of the Capitol setting up massive tent cities providing them with portable housing, port-a-potties, portable showers. portable hospitals, portable schools and daycares, portable laundry mats, portable mess halls to feed them their three squares a day. From the Capitol building to the White House on Pennsylvania Avenue would become the most massive tent city in our history. And with every city even a tent city requires many workers to make it happen. There are those that empty the port-a-potties, those who provide the water, those who pick up the garbage, those who provide the meals, those who teach and care for the children, those who provide the healthcare, and those who provide the law and order. All these things this administration expects states to absorb. Well fork these porkies. It is time for them to deal with it straight on .


You got trolled... :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO:

 
He was left with little choice. The Federal government might have the legal force of allowing open borders, but once they arrive in a State I'm unaware of any Federal law telling States what they have to do with them.

I see you are not aware of this federal statute...

(ii)  knowing or in reckless disregard of the fact that an alien has come to, entered, or remains in the United States in violation of law, transports, or moves or attempts to transport or move such alien within the United States by means of transportation or otherwise, in furtherance of such violation of law;

 
It’s actually a legal argument.. Knowingly transporting illegal aliens is a federal crime..
So, given Biden already buses these same people around what do we do?

Impeach?

LOL.. Not aware of the difference between state and federal jurisdiction? Biden has the AUTHORITY to transport them, Abbott does not... Doesn't matter, Abbott trolled the GQP with his press conference... Wonder what that DHS paperwork must be... Basically he is providing free rides, with the blessing of DHS, to illegal immigrants instead of the federal government paying for it..

 
And NGOs. Biden and "charities" get to decide where the illegals go, so why not Abbott? And Abbott isn't trying to covertly transfer them in the dark of 4am.
I wanna know how Biden is flying them around the country if they don't have the correct ID that his administration requires from anyone who wants to fly?

I just got a lecture about how it's ok for biden to relocate them but not Abbott because of the law. Apparently the law matters sometimes and others it does not.

Soeaking of laws

What does the law say about sanctuary cities harboring illegals? You don't get to make a legal argument when the reason so many are here is because the law is being ignored.

Here's a thought, why don't we round them up and deport them as the law requires.

“Sanctuary cities” are not only legal they are based on the 10th amendment of the constitution. If you are going to make a legal argument about them you should become familiar with the constitution first.
 
Great idea of the governor's.

Send those ladies & gentlemen & children & babies to D.C. and especially to Delaware, where they can stay at a certain family's compound.
Its fun watching Texas Republicans getting all lathered up over a politicians stunt.
 
That would be called human trafficking unless every person on that bus agrees to the free ride. They can also disembark at any stop.
If I was calling the shots I would defend our border like Zewesky does his. We should pass out weapons to every citizen within 25 miles of the border.

Biden can round them up and load them on planes in the middle of the night, and Catholic Charities can hold them and transport unaccompanied minors by the tens of thousands, but Abbott can't bus them to D.C.
See, they don't question when THEY do it.

It's almost like some people understand the law... Did you see the update from Abbott's office? It's completely voluntary and only after DHS approval... Basically he is giving free rides courtesy of state taxpayers... LMAO...

Who do you think is paying for all the planes and buses that Biden's using to transport illegals?
ELOELOEL!

Are you on board with giving free, VOLUNTARY rides to illegal aliens at the state taxpayers expense?
 
LOL... Yeah, actually they do... The state does not.. This is well settled law...

Except, no. They don't. That's why we have so many illegal immigrants coming over the border. They know the government won't enforce the laws.

No prob, as long as they're illegal. Are there any other kind? :rolleyes:

How administrations enforce the law has nothing to do with whether or not they have the authority. States have NO authority to enforce immigration laws... None, nada, zip

They choose not to enforce the laws we have.

That’s why Abbott is requiring DHS paperwork to get free bus rides.

VOLUNTARY bus rides... He neglected to mention that in his tough guy press conference... LMAO....
 
In many regards, this mess we are seeing is the fault of Congress to really do something meaningful with Immigration in at least 20-30 years.

Lots of talk, rhetoric, running off to evening talk shows from CNN to FoxNews, little Congressional action taken.

Administrations make choices, commentators run to the extremes, states politically opposed to an administration respond, lots of tough talk, chaos ensues, eventual election, political pendulum swings the other direction, repeat the whole thing.

This immigration fiasco stays constant.
