Texas Gov. Greg Abbott's free bus trips for illegal immigrants to the sanctuary cities shifted the open-borders debate from a Texas problem, and turned every state into a border state, making it go national.
Now, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton's targeting of an open-borders NGO stands to draw attention to the nefarious role these self-congratulating government-financed groups are playing in egging on the current border surge.
According to the Texas Tribune:
In a Tuesday evening statement, Paxton accused Annunciation House of a series of offenses, which included smuggling people across the southern border and operating a stash house.
“The chaos at the southern border has created an environment where NGOs, funded with taxpayer money from the Biden Administration, facilitate astonishing horrors including human smuggling,” Paxton said.
Which is pretty disgusting, but such are the natural things that come of being very determined to "welcome the stranger," meaning, the people who have broken into our country illegally like burglars.
Being experienced in leftist lawfare tactics, the NGO's nimble response was this:
A Catholic nonprofit that operates several shelters in El Paso sued the Office of the Attorney General earlier this month to delay the release of records after the state agency demanded the immediate release of extensive documentation about the immigrant clients that it serves along the border.
The Consumer Protection Division of the attorney general’s office launched an investigation into Annunciation House on Feb. 7, demanding the release of documentation within one day, the small nonprofit requested an extension to review what information the organization was legally required to turn over.
The state denied the extension, so the Catholic nonprofit sued the state, requesting a court rule on which documents the group must hand over to the attorney general. Additionally, to buy time, Annunciation House also requested a restraining order...

Take no prisoners.
Yet another move by Ken Paxton, AG, TX.
And there are STILL people that think “he musta done sumpin” when the prog screech out another false accusation and try to put him on trial for 300-400 years.
Crime? The progs probably don’t even remember what the original “heinous attack on demo-communism” was supposed to be.
I think it started about 8 years ago.

No wonder the texass dems/DS/Rinos/ bushies unleashed lawfare on paxton
He should raid and arrest these groups from the lowest level to the highest
Kudos, Paxton.
I hope a bunch of people from these NGOs end up behind bars.
Ken Paxton 2028
That fake catholic charity needs to be dismantled and they need to start serving some jail time for breaking multiple laws
Hopefully there are state laws they can be charged violating - would love to see them in prison
Most NGO’s are liberal slush funds or CIA fronts and should be defunded across the board
Thank you, Ken Paxton and Monica Showalter!
It’s about time someone shined a light on these charity organizations.
By all appearances, they use taxpayer dollars to recruit God-knows-who from the far corners of the earth. Then they pay their food, lodging, clothing, and transportation all the way to our border.
Is it our taxpayer money that pays the cartel smuggling charges too?
How many hundreds of billion dollars are being diverted by the Biden administration to pay for this?
Are none of our Congrsspersons curious?
/rant off/
These groups should be considered terrorists, enemy combatants, shut down, rounded up, prosecuted for treason.
God Bless Texas.
Abbott and Paxton are going need a FEMA camp to house all those NGO people.
Send in the Texas state troopers and arrest everyone in the office. Start with RICO charges.
