So, the two states had a great idea. Let’s ship the people who entered illegally and who are awaiting their asylum claims to Washington, D.C., so that the people in Washington finally get how we are being overwhelmed. They’ve been shipping hundreds of people in dozens of separate bus trips since April.
Texas will bus illegal immigrants released into the state by the Border Patrol to Washington, D.C.@gregabbott_TX said that the state has readied 900 charter buses to transport migrants.

Some of the people being sent showed that Biden’s claims about this being “women and families” wasn’t quite true.

So, how’s that working out? Are the folks in D.C. getting the message?
We don’t have a response back from Joe Biden, but we do have a lot of whining from Washington, D.C., Mayor Muriel Bowser who was on “Face the Nation” with Margaret Brennan on Sunday, talking about the homelessness problem in D.C. during the crushing Bidenflation. Brennan asked Bowser about a Washington Post report that the homeless shelters and services in D.C. were now being overwhelmed by the buses full of illegal aliens.
Homeless shelters in Washington D.C. are filling up with asylum seekers from Texas and Arizona. Mayor Bowser says “I fear that they're being tricked into nationwide bus trips when their final destinations are places all over the United States of America.” pic.twitter.com/7OOH6F2Dpl

"Those illegal aliens need to stay in Texas and Arizona where they snuck into in the first place!"
Quite the take.

Oh. I see. So not really for illegal immigration when it’s in your backyard. Other people’s backyards, thousands of miles away, is totally fine, however. . . https://t.co/5Hl2MrRVph
