So why won't Republicans vote to provide more money for border security?
Let's have a bill about funding border security that does not include Ukraine, Israel, or any other red herring. Just funding for border security. Then we can see who votes for it. When you combine a bunch of unrelated issues into one bill, you get to pick and choose who blame for voting against any given issue.

Well, duh! You are.
Follow the example of your California cronies who voted to give 700,000 illegals health insurance.
I have a BIL who lives in southwestern CO and all on on UHC. He is working hard to make it happen in CO. I hope these illegal immigrants bankrupt that initiative.
Edit: I originally screwed up and embedded my post inside the quoted text.

The fact that we act like we're winning because we're shipping invaders all over the rest of the country just shows how hopeless it all is. "Let's take the trash on our front seat and toss it over our shoulder into the back seat. Yay! We cleaned the car!"
Ugh..
This is wholly irrelevant. I mean completely. It's extremely clear Texas can't win the border fight on its own, hell the federal government is suing Texas for trying to restrict illegal crossings. Meanwhile until the busses started running there were huge parts of this country that thought illegals deserved to be here and to receive services and support. Why? Because it wasn't coming from their tax dollars or impacting their lives in any way. Now it is coming from their tax dollars and creating problems in their neighborhoods and over time that is going to change their expectations from their elected officials. When the mayor of NYC is publicly calling for stronger border control you know it's having an impact and that's major progress. All these blue cities complaining about strain on resources means they're feeling the pain of their own policies. Keeping up the flow is how you get them from there to "something has to change". It'll happen at some point.
A fearful society is a compliant society. That's why Democrats and criminals prefer their victims to be unarmed. Gun Control is not about guns, it's about control.
Denver, New York, Chicago et al can't handle so many illegals.........but Eagle Pass, TX can........
Taking a family vacation to Colorado this summer, but more and more I think we will just skip Denver entirely. I was hoping to catch a Rockies game, but I'll get over missing that.

Abbott should be sure to mix the nationalities he is sending to these cities. That would probably increase the chance of riots.
Uh, no. Not even close. But at least they are starting to feel it.Quote:
Denver, like other cities such as New York, are facing the brunt of the nationwide crisis of the flow of people at the southern border.

Did you really think this was clever?
It's propaganda. He and his brethren are supposed to spread it far and wide. It's utter bull**** that anyone with a brain can see through, but that lets libs off the hook.
It's written as if Abbott has personally delivered every migrant to Denver. I haven't heard of busses from Texas to Denver, but I did see stats when the depressed mayor of Chicago was whining about the bussing - fewer than 10% were bussed in from Texas. Some migrants were thanking Abbott for the free transportation since they were broke when they finally crossed the border, and the lift north was a great benefit. I'm sure the same sort of thing is happening in Denver - migrants are going there because free stuff. It also shows what a great move this was for Abbott. Just a little bit of effort makes all the headlines and implants him in all their heads.
this busing illegals to blue states is awsome. Let's say the border finds it way under control and the invasion halts itself. Greg should continue to bus the detained illegals to blue states. Get them out of Texas. You can go to jail in Texas for 5 years or go live in New York/Colorado/California. Handcuffs or bus ticket?
That's point of bussing illegals to these sanctuary cities; have those liberal cities pay for illegals and not Texans.Quote:

Costs should not be shared. The costs should be born entirely by those that are in favor of open borders.shiftyandquick said:
If we are going to have an open border, the cost of it ought to be shared with non-Texans. And especially with the people who advocate and maintain open borders.
The premise is wrong. Biden/his admin has Denver at a breaking point . Abbott is simply transferring the problem out of his state and more fairly distributing it to those places that support open borders .
Because spending money to speed up processing is not a solution.
The problem with people that don't get it is they don't get that they don't get it.
Okaaay. Let's take a little trip back to elementary school so Aggie Apotheosis can catch up.Aggie Apotheosis said:captkirk said:Lolwut?Aggie Apotheosis said:

Border apprehensions being up do not mean that this administration is doing a better job at the border. They are up because we have 10x the number of people attempting to enter than during the past. Why is this? It is because this administration has not only signalled that people who arrive at the border can stay, but also because leftists in this country are supporting NGOs that are ORGANIZING the migrant caravans of people to arrive at the border.
Also, apprehensions no longer mean stopping and preventing arrivals. An encounter today =/= an encounter under previous administrations. Because CBP is processing more people and releasing them into the country rather than turning them back, that means your little graph is meaningless. By the way, this is exactly why Mayorkas is being impeached.
Get it now? Will you admit what's right in front of all of us? Remember, there's lies, damn lies, and statistics. you should know better than to attempt something so juvenile. You get an F.

I was in Denver in Sept and went to a Rockies game. Believe me, you aren't missing anything keeping your family out of that downtown.
why is Denver providing any support to the migrants?
if the freebies dry up...they will go elsewhere
that is the solution

When we were there for our football game with them a couple of years ago, downtown Denver was a slum
Because the money won't be used for border security.Aggie Apotheosis said:

It will be used for more people to process asylum claims quicker and get more illegals into the US.
8 million. Where did people think they were gonna go.

But then the politicians would look racist if they didn't take care of them.
Libs think Eagle Pass, Laredo, Brownsville, Del Rio, and El Paso can and should take them all. If not, it's Texas' problem.JW said:

Eagle Pass and Del Rio have a combined population of about 65,000. Since liberals hear about these places so much, they assume there's hundreds of thousands living there. No, they are the most widely known small cities in the world now.
I like that the illegals are sent to these sanctuary cities but I wish we would send them to smaller cities in those states. Cities similar in size to the Texas cities that are being invaded, like Eagle Pass. They won't have the resources to handle it and hopefully it would create a lot of turmoil in those democrat states.Rattler12 said:

Someone doesn't understand catch and release. Or willingly follows the Democratic Party leadership's corrupted, unethical and completely dishonest propaganda.captkirk said:Lolwut?Aggie Apotheosis said:

I imagine with the terrible economy and such bad global warming there should be plenty of ski resorts with open occupancy that can take in these people.Gigem314 said:Aspen, where the illegals flow like wine.Psycho Bunny said:
I hear Aspen is a lovely place this time of year. Or send them to Evergreen for some R&R. Hell... Breckenridge is a great place for some stealing I mean shopping. I'm sure the migrants would love some snowy cover mountains to look at in the morning.

It's worse, brother. We had a team meeting there and went to a Rockies game afterwards. Yes it was a Wednesday, but a nice large bar closed at 8 or 9 pm which seemed insane. With a game ending soon nearby, you would have thought they'd stay open later.
Oh, and potheads and homeless all over, like Austin.
My wife's sister and her husband live in Evergreen. Its a beautiful place to visit and would hate to see it become a s***hole. However, maybe a place like Evergreen becoming a s***hole would open people's eyes.WestTexasAg said:Evergreen. Underrated place.Psycho Bunny said:
