What are the smarter ways other than sending as many as possible to the areas of the country that harbor the leaders who perpetuate the immigration crimes against this nation?
Pretty much what Abbott’s been doing.
1. Ship all the illegals that can be legally sent to the areas you reference.
2. Do NOT attempt to do things that have been litigated as being illegal, like attempting to enforce Federal immigration law at the state level.
3. Get a state law making illegal presence a state crime, which will allow state prosecution and sentencing. (Which takes at least two years per attempt in Texas as the Governor’s office is deliberately weak by law and the Legislature only meets for six months every other year.)
4. Continue to increase the difficulty of making passable fake state documents like IDs and temporary license plates.
5. Outlaw sanctuary city status at the state level.
6. Pass laws to allow Constitutional Carry and allow easier defense against criminally inclined ‘migrants’ by the citizens while the state works on more measures.
There’s more, but that’s just off the top of my head.
