DC Mayor Bowser asks for National Guard help with migrant buses from southern border: 'Humanitarian crisis'

Washington DC Mayor Muriel Bowser is asking the National Guard to mobilize in an effort to deal with the migrants that are being bused to the city from southern states.

The mayor, who has championed accepting migrants entering the country illegally as a human rights issue, requested the DC National Guard be activated indefinitely to assist with what she called a "humanitarian crisis."

Bowser is asking that the DC Armory be used as a processing center and DC National Guard resources be used to help field migrants as they arrive by bus.

Migrants by the busloads have been sent to the capital by GOP governors Greg Abbott of Texas and Doug Ducey of Arizona as a political statement over President Biden's handling of the immigration crisis at the southern border.

Bowser has vocally complained about the migrant surge in her city, suggesting those entering the country are being "tricked" into coming to D.C. but stressed it is "a federal issue that demands a federal response."

I thought it was stupid stunt when Abbott announced he was sending illegals to DC but evidently not.

The same stale joke that has been around a long time.

Tiresome.

Muriel, dear sweet Muriel:

Ah feels yo pain. And I know what you can do about it. All you need to do is use the DC National Guard to load up the migrants on buses and ship them all to Martha’s Vineyard, the Hamptons, and Delaware near where Joe Biden lives, where all those liberal white people are deprived of minorities and desperately need to have their lives enriched. They would truly praise you for doing it.

The mayor, who has championed accepting migrants entering the country illegally as a human rights issue...is actually full of crap and is a despicable POS. She’s also of low intelligence and racist.

“Brilliant ? Martha’s Vineyard doesn’t have a harvest.”

But the migrants don’t know it, and the poor deprived white liberal denizens of Martha’s Vineyard need to have their lives enriched by more black and brown people. Indeed, this whole program of shipping migrants to places like Martha’s Vineyard, the Hamptons, and fire Island could be viewed as a tremendous cultural enrichment program for those who are currently deprived.

I’d like to see Texas declare that we are being invaded, and let the state guard deal with it appropriately

Agree 100%.
We live in a “pass through” county that Hwy 35 and Hwy 59 go through. We have bail outs, stolen cars, break-ins, deceased ones dropped off in corn fields, etc. Like a city that elects a Soros DA, it is only getting worse by the day.

I’d laugh if this wasn’t so pathetic!! We’ve got millions down here in Texas crossing the border and DC is complaining about 4000 illegals? Give me a big freaking break!

So, is the Bowser wanting to use the same army that couldn’t get a container of weapons into Indonesia FOR IT’S OWN USE? That army? No telling where the froot pickers would wind up. The USMC tried to fly me to DC once and I wound up in Baltimore. There’s a long history of that whole beltway thing getting screwed up.

Well there bowser, how do you like that "stunt"??

You are only seeing a fraction of what we are getting here on the border.

Look up the definition of irony and satire then get back to us.

I would like that, too-and we do have enough state LEOs and guard to deal with it-but I suppose we can settle with sending the mojados to places like DC until after the mid-terms-if seats are won, then blue states can be generously provided with even more cheap labor by bus. I’d just rather see us-and some other red states-secede, quit sending the fed our money, cancel the democrat party for good, along with all the EBT cards and be out of this dumpster fire...

I’d be in favor of revoking the Texas citizenship of Beto, Sheila Jackass Lee and some others and deporting them, too...

When DC’s pretty much full, start loading the buses for Rehoboth Beach.
