Texas Gov. Greg Abbott is sick of taking the heat for Biden and the White House’s refusal to do anything about the border crisis. Abbott snapped after Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot called him un-Christian-like after he bussed migrants to her city. She’s just one of the many Dem politicians now targeting Abbott for his efforts to deflect illegal immigration in his state.
Gov Abbott explained to Fox News’s Jesse Watters, “it was the most astonishing thing I have ever seen. She is the epitome of being a hypocrite. Being a hypocrite for doing exactly what she was criticizing me for but also not even acknowledging what President Biden has done.”
He continued, “President Biden has been flying migrants these migrants, around the country, something in darkness of night, and she’s never said a word about what he’s done. And you pointed out Kamala Harris, who hasn’t done anything to secure the border. The fact of the matter is this is an American problem, and Americans across the country are going to have to come to grips with the reality we have a broken border.”
Abbott couldn’t help but to remember how border security was handled under Trump, “a border that before President Biden took office, we had the lowest number of illegal border crossings in decades. President Trump had solved this. And Biden decimated everything that President Trump had done to fix the border. This is Biden’s fault, pure and simple.”
What do the numbers look like? Well, the January 2022 projections exceed the monthly levels from fiscal 2021, when a record 47,000 migrant children entered the US without relatives.
More than 1.2 million single-adult migrants have been picked up by US immigration officials in the 2022 fiscal year. Another 101,024 unaccompanied minors were also encountered by US officials, data shows. In just two years’ time the US has seen more than 2 million border crossings and it is all thanks to this administration.
Watch
According to Kamala Harris, the borders are ‘secure’ so I wonder what Dems like Lightfoot are complaining about? I mean, if we don’t have a security problem then why are these so-called ‘sanctuary cities’ so pissed that they’re being overrun by illegals?
