Hundreds of migrant families will be flown to California in as many as three flights a week as U.S. Border Patrol agents continue to struggle with the growing number of illegals crossing into the U.S., officials said.

Flights carrying 120 to 135 people were set to begin flying Friday to San Diego from the Rio Grande Valley in Texas and would continue to do so indefinitely, Border Patrol's interim San Diego sector chief Douglas Harrison said.

Harrison called it a “contingency operation” that would see at least three flights a week making the trip. Each flight would cost the government around $6,000, officials said.

Actually, California sanctuary cities (and other sanctuary cities) should get them all

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

that would work

give um what they want.

adding 3-4 flight/week relocating new dem voters to cali santuary cities won’t effect the 2020 electoral college vote.

So you expect him to defy the US Supreme Court?

The magic word is asylum.

In December the US Supreme court said anyone can claim asylum any time, anywhere, even if they enter ILLEGALLY. That is what caused this flood...the USSC backed up another court that made that ruling. Trump policy was that people who entered illegally could not claim asylum, the courts made them stop enforcing that.

This will be paid for by your taxes, your children’s taxes, your grandchildren’s taxes. This will be every citizen’s burden. A wall would be cheaper and safer.

“Why enable illegals to settle in America when the same plane should send them home”

Yes, whatever happened to make America great again?

Not good but where do they put them? We have about 300 in our town of around 15K, and they say they are bringing more. They are hungry, dirty, shoeless and they are asking us to take are of them. They are asking for volunteers to help process them so they can send them on their way.

They are over-burdening our medical, fire and police. One church took in 40 of them but the rest are in WWII hangers. They need to ship them out. I wish they’d send them all to Santa Fe.

To wake up the people that this is a national problem that will affect every person in the country. The pressure needs to be put on Demorat leaders and that will only happen if the people resist settlement in their own back yards.

Fly them all to San Francisco and drop them off at the Embarcadero.

There are several posters on border threads posting dim talking points.

Not just here but all over social media.

Things that make you say...hmmm.

I was surprised at the data at FactCheck.org as it’s PEW Research, and they’re very unfriendly to President Trump.

But, whatever. SOMETHING needs to be done, and *I* see President Trump at least TRYING, while blindfolded, hobbled and hog-tied by Congress and the Courts at every opportunity.

How about we ALL just CHEER for America and keep working to elect people that WILL do the ONE thing mandated of them? Safety and Security of American Borders!

Yes, bring more illegals in. That’s why we elected Trump

No President is perfect. Remember the President is a human being just like you and me.

"They’re [California] not going to object to more coming..."

*****************

Interesting you should say this. That's not what the LA Times is saying (California hits back as Trump threatens to ‘dump’ immigrants in ‘sanctuary cities’):

So you are saying every responsible tax paying citizen and their children’s children will be off the hook for this? I just can’t see that.

I thought cattle cars were the proper mode of transportation in this case. /sarc

When the blonde at Homeland Security got fired, weren’t we supposed to go in a “tougher” direction?
