Vice President Kamala Harris accused Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) of “dereliction of duty” over their recent transports of migrants to Democratic-led cities.
“I think it is the height of irresponsibility … frankly, a dereliction of duty, when you are an elected leader, to play those kinds of games with human life and human beings,” Harris said in an interview with Vice News. “If you think there is a problem, be part of the solution.”
While Abbott has bused thousands of migrants to Washington, D.C., New York City and Chicago since April, he and DeSantis have recently made more dramatic moves.
Two buses of migrants from Texas arrived at Harris’ home in Washington, D.C. on Thursday. Abbott said he sent the buses to Harris’ doorstep in response to a statement she made last Sunday on “Meet the Press,” calling the border “secure.”
DeSantis sent two planes of migrants from Texas to Martha’s Vineyard on Wednesday, in his first foray into transporting migrants to Democratic-led cities. The Florida governor promised on Friday that this is “just the beginning” of his efforts to relocate migrants.
**SNIP**
“Under the previous administration, they decimated a system that was designed to address immigration,” Harris told Vice News. “And so we have been spending, in the last 18 months, an incredible amount of time and work and resources to reconstruct that system.”

So Harris is against the generosity coming from Florida?
55 gifted migrants could really help out at Marthas Vineyard! Such a waist Harris doesn’t realize this...
It’s also a duty to help sanctuary cities with more, more and more migrants.
However, I’m afraid that sending one single additional migrant bus to any of these “pro-migrant” places will make them a bit crazy in the head... maybe to such a point where they will end up voting for law and order. Who knows !
Hope is out there!

They are DESPERATE for a reaction they can use.
But our restraint and mocking is causing everything they try to backfire.

Harris accusing anyone of dereliction of duty is the height of hypocrisy. The only duty she has performed satisfactorily was her duty to Willie Brown.

And as always, it's the previous administration's fault.

a dereliction of duty, when you are an elected leader, to play those kinds of games...“If you think there is a problem, be part of the solution.” We, the sane citizens of Florida, have elected Governor DeSantis to take care of the problem the open border is causing in this state, among other things, and we are grateful for his efforts.

I’m waiting for Trump to call her a dim bulb or a nitwit. These people are so stupid, they have to be called out before they realize it.
