Gov. Abbott’s idea to bus illegal migrants from Texas to NYC and DC is getting their attention

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.

“Voter dilution s what they are trying to do. It is all the selfish pursuit of power for the left.”

It is actually worse.
Most of the migrants are military-aged men. Watch for the corrupt establishment to fast-track citizenship for anyone willing to spend a two- or three-year stint in the military.
These illegal migrants have no love for the Constitution or the rule of law.
What happened to the Jan6 protesters is coming to the entire country when the illegal migrants are armed and aimed at us citizens.
The IRS has purchased/stock-piled millions of rounds of ammo - why?
Are they getting ready for the switch from our current fiat currency to state-controlled crypto?
We all need to pay serious attention to what’s coming at us. And it is coming at us like a train-wreck in the light of day.

Maybe, if New York and Washington remove the sanctuary sign from the door, the illegals bussed up there will ask to be bussed to another locale, possibly Acapulco. Until then, the Texas border will merely be a weigh station on the way up to the welcome wagon cities and states.

NICE TAKE

A BRILLIANT tactic hurting them politically, piercing Dems thin veil of altruism......killing them optics-wise.

DC Mayor Bowowser requested National Guard troops.......INFECTED Biden HAD to deny it.

How could his lesbian Press DITZ explain his need to use military force in and around DC - BUT NOT ON THE SOUTHERN BORDER?

BRILLIANT!!!
