Different thread, same topic.  This is killing them and they're trying to put on a brave face.  Again with the stupid posts though.

Bus with migrants sent by Texas governor arrives in DC

Can Abbott be any more of a dick?

A bus carrying migrants from Texas arrived in Washington, D.C., on Wednesday morning after Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) last week announced plans to send them from his state’s southern border to the nation’s capital.

Fox News anchor John Roberts tweeted a picture of the bus parked outside the building that houses the network’s bureau on Capitol Hill and that of several other news outlets on Wednesday morning.

Abbott said during a press conference last week the migrants would be voluntarily sent to Washington so that President Biden could “immediately address the needs of the people that they are allowing to come across our border.”

Abbott also ordered the state to charter flights to transport migrants to the nation’s capital after they have been processed by the Department of Homeland Security, The Texas Tribune reported.

So Biden shipping them to NY and other places in the dead of night is different than what Abbott is doing, how exactly?  OH, I'll bet you low information ass didn't know that was happening, did you.

3. DC should send all gun criminals to TX.

Huh?  Are you saying that all the immigrants are criminals?  Really?  Abbott got in your head SO MUCH, you're either admitting that crossing the border was illegal, OR you think they have committed other crimes.  Got it.

7. This isn't gonna piss us off as much as he thinks. We like immigrants here

In fact, we should write him a thank you note there’s a labor shortage, you know.The folks are only too glad to get out of that shit hole Texas too I bet. Wait Texas taxpayers are paying for this. That state just has too much money to burn. That’s what happens when you don’t return anything to your citizens

Awesome!  I'm sure there is more coming your way.  Just hold on a bit.

15. Wouldn't that mean the District of Columbia has to deal with it?

-and not Biden? And Abbott also says he wants to "charter flights to Washington" which means they'd fly into DCA or IAD, both in Virginia - making it the state of Virginia's problem to deal with. How is this supposed to accomplish anything?

I'll tell you what this is accomplishing, since it seems to be above your understanding.  This is putting the illegal immigration problem front and center since the Biden administration can't seem to find the Texas/Mexico border even using GPS.  Kamala came to Texas, but not the border and she stayed just long enough for a photo op.  WHY should this be Texas problem?  None of you can answer that one.  It is a FEDERAL BORDER.

16. what a useless

PPS Abbott is. He and deSantis were separated at birth... It's all political kabuki by these republikkkan thugs with a little power and influence Just trying to make President Biden the bad guy. At the least, I know our President won't be separating children from their families and making them look like animals by putting them in cages. While sending their parents back to their countries of origin. From which they were trying to escape murder and extreme poverty brought on by the corruption of their leaders and escape indiscriminate rape. To hell with Abbott

You don't get out much, do you?  Google "pictures of kids in cages biden administration" then get back with me.  There are MORE kids in cages and they are more tightly packed than under Trump.  OH, what about the families who had to stay UNDER A BRIDGE because Biden couldn't figure out where to put them?  Remember that?  Look up Del Rio, TX and gander at the pics.

13. And if you see any BULLSHIT on here about how this is normal and always done

use that power we all have if you know what I mean.

You ****ing cons GET OUT OF HERE!

 

I'll go wherever I want, dickhead. 

Nobody called Walleye out on his very racist remark.  Also, what they're picturing is illegal.  These people can't just walk into a job.  Unless they all do under the table, and PAY NO TAXES. 

More racism:

Because putting them in shipping containers is so much better.

Really? LIEden and OhBummer did that in OhBummer's second term, and probably in the first term as well.

As if letting them loose on society and using them as an excuse to background check buyers of guns, the sellers of which have already been forced to act as pseudo-agents of the state by keeping records where the state isn't allowed, wasn't enough.

Further proof that criminals gone easy on, was never for the purpose of mercy.

it was always a weapon.

Good one, Pete! 

No need to bolt off so quickly!

Funny, that wasn't Jen Psaki's take. She said something like "We're glad Greg Abbott is helping migrants get where they want to go." 

Poor dems. They're not even good at being passive-aggressive.

DC wanted them here, DC can deal with them. Texas does not want, nor ever claimed to want, your DC thug criminals.

This is almost as good as my governor sending them to Delaware. Biden wants them. We don't.
