Chicago’s response to a growing immigrant crisis has turned police stations into makeshift shelters where asylum seekers have been provided with expired meal rations and where infections and infestations are a common problem.

Outgoing Mayor Lori Lightfoot has taken aim at Greg Abbott, the Republican governor of Texas who has been sending immigrants to Chicago and other sanctuary cities as a response to President Joe Biden’s border policies. In an open letter Sunday, Lightfoot told Abbott that her administration was aware he planned to resume busing immigrants to Chicago and other cities on Monday, noting that 8,000 have already been sent here since August.

“Nearly all the migrants have been in dire need of food, water and clothing, and many needed extensive medical care,” she wrote. “Some of the individuals you placed on buses were women in active labor, and some were victims of sexual assault. None of these urgent needs were addressed in Texas.”

Send more, Governor Abbott, many more.
The message has not yet been fully received; the lesson not fully learned!

Not addressed in Texas because they do not claim to be a sanctuary.
You asked for it, Chicago. You got it!

If they are letting food expire, then they don’t have enough immigrants.

I was told growing up, not to let food go to waste because people in India were starving.

Since Chicago has food expiring, we should flood Chicago with immigrants, until either nobody in India is starving or until the excess food runs out.

And Chicago may owe India reparations.

Can we just get over the “Expired food” nonsense with regard to canned and dry food?

NOT a single one of these people are “immigrants or migrants” they are all ILLEGAL ALIEN INVADERS. Personally I think Abbott should step up his game and begin Furloughing ALL Illegal Alien prisoners and send them to these Sanctuary Cities with a warning that if they come back to Texas they will go right back to PRISON.

So, just let them self-deport them if they don’t like conditions.

Gov. Abbott’s response to Lightfoot:

“Mayor Lightfoot loves to tout the responsibility of her city to welcome all regardless of legal status, and I look forward to seeing this responsibility in action as these migrants receive resources from a sanctuary city with the capacity to serve them,” Abbott said in a statement when he first began busing migrants to Chicago.

Kids with toys and adults appear well fed.

Yet, not enough for freeloading illegals.

That is because the title of the reporter Elvia Malagón is “Social Justice Reporter”. In other words, rabid activism, not journalism, is baked into her job description.
