Abbott's busloads of illegals to Washington were so successful they've prompted him to expand his operation to sanctuary city New York.
Back in April, Texas's Republican governor, Greg Abbott, pledged to bus migrants who had entered Texas illegally to Washington, D.C. on a voluntary basis.
It was laughed at in the press and among Democrats as a "publicity stunt" at the time. But the governor was dead serious, and kept that promise. Leadership is contagious, and Abbott was soon joined by Arizona's Gov. Douglas Ducey.
For months, the states of Texas and Arizona have been sending charter buses of illegal border crossers being let in by Joe Biden's open borders policy to Washington, D.C.'s Union Station, near the Capitol building and now to New York City, led by Mayor Eric Adams, who loudly proclaims his city a sanctuary city, with laws on the books saying the city is required to provide housing to all comers.
Abbott's office says that over 6,100 migrants have been bussed to D.C. so far.
Abbott expanded his operation by transporting migrants to the Big Apple, which he said like Washington, D.C. is an “ideal destination” due to the city’s generous treatment of homeless people.
However, officials based in D.C. or NYC, despite their claims of compassion aren’t exactly giving the migrants the red carpet treatment.

Teach them all conservative principles and Christianity on their way to the big cities. Make them agents of revival.
Do Martha’s Vineyard and Chapaqua next.
L
Millions of illegals come over the border with no regard to the welfare and safety and security of the local citizens and their kids..
Now, a few thousand show up in D.C. and NYC and suddenly it’s a crisis........Dems phony altruism is kaputski.
DC proper has 700K residents. I would say give them 10%, around 70,000.
For several cities, the problem with a migrant influx is that available tent space has already pretty much been used up. /s
Do-nothing Abbott finally stumbled into a good plan. Kudos.
Not yet but would be a GREAT place to send them.
All these bleeding heart liberals holding ‘IMMIGRANTS WELCOME’ signs can STFU.
With all the Kennedy deaths including ODs........there’s plenty of room at the Kennedy Compound at the Cape.
If Texas needs more bus drivers I will work for cheap.
LoL......good one.
It needs to be a never ending caravan to DC,NY,Hamptons, Marthas Vineyard,... just like they were in Mexico coming here.
Start busing them to Beverly Hills/ Hollywood on the doorstep of fat cat movie actors, producers etc. deep pockets for the democRAT party.
I wish
“There is a legal limit to *where* Abbott can send the illegals”
Really. Please share details.
Maybe UPS could develop a self contained human habitat container for shipping illegals more efficiently. Kind of a high tech cattle car.
Hollywood - now there’s a place whose inhabitants would love to have a few thousand more illegals in their front yards.
We can learn so much from their generosity.
I still sob over their tolerance and compassion......sniffle.......
And when Meryl Streep called sex crazed Harvey Weinstein a “god”.......l completely lost it......sob.
Excellent! Keep sending them to those states that want open borders. Wouldn’t it be funny to see tents, filled with illegals, lined up along Pennsylvania Avenue!

Abbott should evaluate all of the states that have decried themselves ‘sanctuary states’, or ‘sanctuary cities’, and have a “Wheel of Fortune” that he spins to determine the location of each bus. He then can assure an impartial outcome for these illegal aliens.
YES!
