Illegal Immigrants From Texas Arrive In DC
iHEART Radio ^ | April 13, 2022 | Joe Pags

Posted on 04/13/2022 10:51:42 AM PDT by red-dawg

The first bus-load of illegal immigrants caught at the Texas border has arrived at the nation's capitol.

This busing strategy is part of Texas Governor Greg Abbott's response to the Biden Administration's decision to end a public health rule, which has been used to expedite deportations.

Abbott says his state is overwhelmed with illegal immigrants. They were from Colombia, Cuba, Venezuela and Nicaragua,
and were dropped off near Union Station, in front of the building that houses Fox News, NBC News and CSPAN.

A second bus is currently en route to Washington, D.C, according to the governor's office.

They need more busses, one a day at least. Then send them to Delaware and to the VP residence.

Give them a map to walk to Georgetown and all the other wealthy neighborhoods in the DC area. Tell them that these people are on record as to wanting to offer then jobs and assistance. Just knock on a few doors.

Texas needs to send someone under cover in the caravans and tell everyone they are headed to DC because thats The richest place in the US so it’s where you make the most money. That way they will be anxious to sign on to be transported to DC.

...interesting little piece of street theater.

What is anybody supposed to DO about this?

How were they induced to board the bus?
(No misrepresentations were made as to why they should, or what would happen in DC, were they?)

They are presumably people with limited finances and language skills. Will they simply be off-loaded on the street and left to fend for themselves?

They are pawns in a several politicians’ pissing contest.

I am not supporting ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION, but how are these people not being treated cruelly?

What was the plan when they got to TX or AZ? Still no money or friends... what difference does it make at this point?

This appears to be a stunt to protect himself politically, but I like the concept.

A busload is a spit into a hurricane, so I don’t think much of it unless they are taking all of them and sending them.

It just seems like so much of the posturing we see from RINOs and Leftists who are trying to stave off defeat.

They’re gonna need serious fleets of buses, if the projected figures of 18K/day under delete-Title-42 becomes fact.
