Texas Gov. Greg Abbott has lashed out and blamed President Joe Biden for the deaths of 46 migrants whose bodies were found abandoned in a tractor-trailer in sizzling temperatures in a suspected smuggling attempt.

Hours after the bodies were discovered in the back of an 18-wheeler in San Antonio Monday evening, the Republican governor fired off a tweet saying, “These deaths are on Biden.”

“They are a result of his deadly open border policies,” he added. “They show the deadly consequences of his refusal to enforce the law.”

A number of fellow Republicans also blamed Biden’s immigration policies for the tragedy, with Texas Sen. Ted Cruz tweeting, “How many more people have to die before Dems give a damn?”

The deportation free zone has something to do with incident.

Todd Bensman was talking about it on Bannon’s WAR ROOM

“20 or so survivors are in critical condition so the deaths may be higher than 46.”

There were 16 survivors, two of them have now died. So far 48 dead total. As of an hour or so ago.

The Catholic Church is as complicit in these deaths as are the Democrats.

Catholic Charities has been a major supporter of illegal immigration which has directly led to more illegals crossing the border and has directly led to these 50 deaths.

Remember when AOC staged a fake crying event at a chain link fence near the border? Maybe it’s time she should come to San Antonio, find an 18 wheeler somewhere, and cry again.

“””Catholic Charities has been a major supporter of illegal immigration which has directly led to more illegals crossing the border and has directly led to these 50 deaths.”””


Catholic Charities is but one of the many NGO’s linked to churches. Lutheran Social Services is one of those NGO’s that facilitate the ‘human trafficking’ from countries around the world to illegally cross the US border.

While these NGO’s are not legally part of the various denomination, they get moral and financial support.

Human trafficking.

You nailed it when you described the activities of these “charities” as such.

Sick and inhumane, and tragic. And not uncommon due to our border policies. Human beings treated and used as chattel.

Yet if you want to have border security to stop this kind of thing from happening, you are a "bigot", "xenophobe", etc.

Unfortunately our side has done a very poor job with our messaging...generically saying "border security" doesn't cut it.

Exactly.

Pack the bodies in a refrigerated truck, send it to DC, and make it a point to dump the bodies in front of of the WH.
