Back in April, Texas’s Republican governor, Greg Abbott, pledged to bus migrants who had entered Texas illegally to Washington, D.C. on a voluntary basis.
It was laughed at in the press and among Democrats as a “publicity stunt” at the time. But the governor was dead serious, and kept that promise. Leadership is contagious, and Abbott was soon joined by Arizona’s Gov. Douglas Ducey.
For months, the states of Texas and Arizona have been sending charter buses of illegal border crossers being let in by Joe Biden’s open borders policy to Washington, D.C.’s Union Station, near the Capitol building and now to New York City, led by Mayor Eric Adams , who loudly proclaims his city a sanctuary city, with laws on the books saying the city is required to provide housing to all comers.
Abbott’s office says that over 6,100 migrants have been bussed to D.C. so far.
Abbott expanded his operation by transporting migrants to the Big Apple, which he said like Washington, D.C. is an “ideal destination” due to the city’s generous treatment of homeless people.
However, officials based in D.C. or NYC, despite their claims of compassion aren’t exactly giving the migrants the red carpet treatment.
NPR reports that when the migrants disembark, they find neither the local nor federal government there to meet them.
Even Joe Biden’s White House which is responsible for the border crisis, isn’t exactly welcoming their new guests.Speaking to reporters, Biden’s press secretary, Karine Jean-Pierre, slammed Gov. Abbott for sending immigrants to NYC and DC, calling it “another stunt of bussing desperate migrants across the country and he’s using them as a political ploy.” Karine Jean-Pierre reacts to a question about Texas Gov. Greg Abbott bussing illegal immigrants to New York as the Biden border crisis continues: “It’s the latest stunt from the governor…” pic.twitter.com/WklIbpS2CX […]

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
