Texas border town makes deal with Biden administration to ship illegals to big cities
Laredo, Texas reached an agreement Wednesday to settle its lawsuit against the Biden Department of Homeland Security for transporting illegal immigrants from the Rio Grande Valley sector into the border city.
Now these individuals are being transported instead to Austin, Dallas and Houston after they are released by Border Patrol.
Laredo Mayor Pete Saenz, a Democrat, said Border Patrol is not testing the people it is releasing for COVID before they are bused out. Under the new agreement, the city is not required to test them, so they donât have to provide care.
“The reason why we don’t do testing is that once you test, there’s an obligation,” Saenz told MyRGV.com. “If they’re positive, we’re told that you have to quarantine. We don’t have the infrastructure for that.
“What we’re doing is coordinating with the EMC, the emergency management coordinators, in Austin and Houston, and I believe even Dallas, too ... Then, it’s really up to them to continue offering PPEs, masks, hygiene, whatever they require.”
Laredo was forced to temporary shutdown after illegal immigrants created a COVID-19 outbreak, Saenz said.
“Border Patrol was very clear that they were just going to put them out in the street, in our plazas,” Saenz said. “And of course, we couldn’t have that.
“I know some people may say, ‘You’re basically transporting untested people to other cities.’ And the answer is, ‘Yes.’ But what alternative do we have here, locally?
“At this point, we’ve had zero ICU beds in the last seven days. We’ve had people in overflow, basically waiting for a hospital bed out in the hallways. I think today we had close to 40 just waiting for a room.”
Laredo taxpayers have spent roughly $54,000 on busing out illegal immigrants so far, Saenz said.

Don’t know about a ‘live’ thread, but this Haiti one seems to be getting a bit of traffic.

23 min ago Biden announces he’s authorized 5,000 troops to Afghanistan to ensure “orderly and safe drawdown”
âWhen I came to office, I inherited a deal cut by my predecessorâ which he invited the Taliban to discuss at Camp David on the eve of 9/11 of 2019âthat left the Taliban in the strongest position militarily since 2001 and imposed a May 1, 2021 deadline on US forces,â Biden wrote. âShortly before he left office, he also drew US forces down to a bare minimum of 2,500. Therefore, when I became President, I faced a choiceâfollow through on the deal, with a brief extension to get our forces and our alliesâ forces out safely, or ramp up our presence and send more American troops to fight once again in another countryâs civil conflict.â

Total BS that he’s allowed to score this *deal* and send all of these infected ILLEGALS, from all over the world....to major TX cities.
Where is Abbott on this?
I know the lib Mayors of these cities are probably welcoming with open arms.
Outrageous.
“Biden has been hiding out the past week.”
True. He hasn’t exactly provided them a lot of material the past week.
Sky News Australia is back on YouTube and Biden disappears. The things that make you go hmmmm......
Well, Maine has thrown down the gauntlet.
Our BITCH of a Governor now has mandated that ALL
healthcare workers Must be vaccinated or will
not be allowed to work.
There is no way out for me, or I will lose my
job, and my health insurance if I decline.
Hubby cannot carry us alone, so there you have it.
Great, just great.
LOL! Cute kitty.
Seems like closing the barn door after the horse got out, to me.
Even if accurate (HAH! I crack myself up!) didn’t he/his advisors think about that before now?? Incompetence!
Hahahaha that is so helpful! I just need a one-person model lol.
