Democrats ignore the problem at the border. Border states have been flooding with illegal immigrants, and the Biden team is allowing who knows how many to enter the country. Texas Governor. Greg Abbott finally got their attention by busing them up to Washington, D.C. and now, he’s included New York City.
Abbott noted that NYC was an “ideal destination,” because just like D.C., it’s a sanctuary city. “I hope he follows through on his promise of welcoming all migrants with open arms so that our overrun and overwhelmed border towns can find relief,” Abbott said about NYC Mayor Eric Adams. Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey also bused illegal aliens to D.C.
Democrats have begun to flip because of the actions taken by Arizona and Texas. Now they must deal with problems in their cities. They’re not happy with it, with Washington, D.C. calling it a “humanitarian crisis” after they received 4000 people over a couple of months when some Texas cities can receive that number in a day. It’s clear that the plan is working.
But there’s also another side benefit to Abbott’s brilliant move: showing the utter hypocrisy of the media as well.
Suddenly, they’re also concerned about the influx of illegal aliens into Washington, D.C., and New York City when they haven’t seemed to give a darn about them flooding across the border. Guess who they’re blaming for the problem? It’s not Joe Biden; it’s the governors of Arizona and Texas.
Here’s how the NY Times described what was happening, “G.O.P. Governors Cause Havoc by Busing Migrants to East Coast,” and claiming this was using the illegal aliens as a “political tool.”

The piece cited a D.C. City Council member claimed, “This is a crisis created by Republican leaders in other states, however, unfortunately it’s fallen on the mayor to allocate resources locally.”
Vanity Fair claimed the Republican governors had “successfully created a migrant crisis” in the northern states.
The Washington Post columnist Petula Dvorak called the migrant buses “a cruel, political stunt” that has devolved into “relentless, inhumane cruelty.”
The WaPo editorial board wrote, “Mr. Abbott and Mr. Ducey hope to cause trouble, to make it seem as though migrants inevitably lead to chaos and thus compel the federal government to pass more draconian border policies.”
NPR says that the GOP governors are sending the people but they have “no plan.”

Wait, who doesn’t have a plan? Joe Biden brought in all these illegal aliens. Where’s his “plan”? Of course, his plan was just to let them in and overrun the border states’ facilities. But now, just a fraction of the numbers that flood Texas and Arizona go to D.C. and New York, and it’s a “crisis” and “inhumane cruelty.” What was it when Joe Biden was letting them into the country? Why weren’t they calling Biden “cruel” and pressing him to do something?
What is “cruel” about giving people a bus ride to such liberal meccas as D.C. and NYC? Aren’t those cities sanctuary cities? Aren’t they saying thereby they want illegal aliens to come to their cities and they’ll take care of them? So how is this “cruel”?
Seems to be a great plan by the governors to me and it’s working like a charm if this is the reaction.
