Chicago Mayor Johnson: Texas Governor Abbott Creating ‘Chaos’ with Migrant Transport
Breitbart ^ | 12/31/2023 | Pam Key

Posted on 12/31/2023 11:54:18 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson said Sunday on CBS’s “Face the Nation” that Gov. Greg Abbott (R-TX) was “determined to continue to sow seeds of chaos” with migrant transport to his cities.

“Face the Nation” host Margaret Brennan said, “Thanks for joining us. And, Mr. Mayor of Chicago, I want to put to you a question about what seems to have developed overnight. There are reports of a plane from Texas landing in Chicago carrying more migrants that arrived around 1am. I’m wondering if Texas officials gave you any heads up, who’s on the plane, what happens next?”

It is NOT the Texas governor that is inviting the illegals into the US.

Meanwhile:

Chicago voters won’t get chance to weigh in on sanctuary city status, City Council decides

CHICAGO - Mayor Brandon Johnson and his City Council allies on Thursday used a parliamentary maneuver to squelch an advisory referendum that would have allowed Chicago voters to weigh in on whether Chicago should remain a sanctuary city.

But it’s interesting isn’t it that many times the number of illegals he is whining about don’t, according to Brandon, cause any problems in the border states.

How curious is that?

Tip of the hat to Gov. Abbot, only one of a few Republicans who has the cajones to stand up to the RATS.

Can you possibly be any more tone deaf? The big city virtue signaling “Sanctuary City” was a welcome mat for the millions of illegals. Did these idiots REALLY expect Texas, NM and AZ to suffer millions of invaders by themselves after Chicago, NY, Phl, Boston, Wash DC, Baltimore, et al caused it in the first place?

These idiots make me sick.

"Biden is creating the chaos." Yes, but abetted by many big city mayors and city councils whose actions pre-date Biden.
As of 2018, there are more than 560 cities, counties, and states that are considered to be sanctuaries in the United States.

Chicago’s history as a sanctuary city began in 1982 when 20 churches declared themselves as safe havens for those fleeing from El Salvador and Guatemala. In 2012, Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel signed the Welcoming City ordinance, which aimed at making Chicago the “most immigrant-friendly city in the country.”

San Francisco established itself as a sanctuary city in 1989 with the passing of its City of Refuge resolution. Additionally, in 2013, San Francisco passed the “Due Process for All,” prohibiting cooperation with ICE detainer requests and limiting when law enforcement can inform ICE officials of when undocumented persons are released from jail.

Washington D.C., the nation’s capital, is estimated to have about 70,000 immigrants, 25,000 of whom are undocumented. Former Mayor Marion Barry declared D.C. to be a sanctuary city in 1984, and former Mayor Vincent Gray signed a law in 2011 that prohibits officials from questioning a resident’s immigration status during arrests or other operations. Current Mayor Muriel Bowser created the Immigrant Justice Legal Services Grant program, providing funding to targeted services and resources to the D.C. immigrant population, including those facing deportation or hearings.

New York City has had a near-constant influx of immigrants through Ellis Island for decades and is known as the gateway to America. There are about 500,000 undocumented residents in New York City. New York City offers several programs to immigrants, such as the municipal identification programs, which allows residents, regardless of status, to attain identification so that they may have access to various social programs and open bank accounts.

San Jose has long implemented policies that prohibit officials from reporting undocumented residents. San Jose was the first city to sue the federal government over the decision to end the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program. Santa Clara County, where San Jose is located, has also set up a 24-hour “Rapid Response Network” hotline, which allows people to report ICE raids in progress.

But quartering the invading army in Texas is not creating chaos?

Well... Biden is causing chaos with the open border. I reckon Mayor Johnson hasn’t made the connection yet.

“CHICONGO IS A SANCTUARY CITY FOR ALL YOU POOR, HELPLESS, DOWNTRODDEN ILLEGALS WHO COME TO THIS GREAT COUNTRY FOR RELIEF!” unless, of course, you take them up on their offer.

Exactly - Abbott is only sending them to the cities who ‘say’ we should welcome illegals.

Hey Chicago Mayor. Gov. Abbott is just sharing part of the illegal aliens invading the US that you Democrats have created and who are illegally crossing into Texas. Enjoy!

In plain English:

If enough invaders arrive, black Chicago politicians will become unelectable.

“I reckon Mayor Johnson hasn’t made the connection yet.”

He is a very stupid man, but not THAT stupid. He simply wants to blame Republicans, no matter how preposterous.

Creating chaos....

“I accept chaos. I am not sure whether it accepts me.”
— Bob Dylan

Asked to denounce guns by a folk singer Sing Out magazine interviewer in 1981:
“Guns have always been a great part of America. I don’t think gun control is making any difference at all. Just makes it harder for people who need to be protected.”
Does he have firearms himself at home?
“I have a couple of Colt single-shot repeater pistols and I also have a clip-fed Winchester blasting rifle.”
A critic said his description seemed almost tactile whether technically correct or not.
