Texas governor Greg Abbott has sent a busload of undocumented migrants from his state to Los Angeles, California, while yet again slamming the administration of Joe Biden for failing to “secure the nation’s border.”Abbott tweeted that border towns in his state were still overwhelmed by thousands of people illegally crossing in from Mexico because of Biden’s policies. He added that Los Angeles was a city that migrants “seek to go to, particularly now that its city leaders approved its self-declared sanctuary city status.” He also made a point of underscoring this was just the "1st bus", in a not-so-subtle hint of more to come.The bus loaded with around 42 migrants, including 8 children, had arrived on June 14 at LA’s Union Station, according to local media reports, with a human rights organization taking them to the nearby St. Anthony Croatian Catholic Church. The mayor of LA, Karen Bass, fumed in a statement that it was, “abhorrent that an American elected official is using human beings as pawns in his cheap political games.” She added that this was “a despicable stunt that Republican Governors have grown so fond of”.“This did not catch us off guard, nor will it intimidate us. Now, it’s time to execute our plan. Our emergency management, police, fire and other departments were able to find out about the incoming arrival while the bus was on its way and were already mobilized along with nonprofit partners before the bus arrived,” she said.Both Abbot and authorities in Arizona and Florida have been resorting to this strategy of sending illegals to so-called Democratic "sanctuaries" in frustration over the situation at the US-Mexico border. Last year, the Texas governor reportedly sent tens of thousands of migrants to Washington DC, New York City, Philadelphia, Chicago. At one point, migrants were delivered practically on the doorstep of Vice President Kamala Harris, whom Biden had tasked with handling the crisis at the southern border. The migrants were brought to the front gates of her posh Number One Observatory Circle residence in September 2022.Florida had joined the fray, with Governor Ron DeSantis, who is now running for president, chartering two planes last year to take 50 migrants to the affluent vacation retreat of Martha’s Vineyard in Massachusetts, a Democratic Party stronghold town where the average home costs over $1 million and 80 percent of residents are white.More recently, two flights loaded with migrants landed in California's capital, Sacramento, according to the California attorney general's office.The authorities in Texas, Arizona, and Florida claim their southern states have been pummeled hardest by the immigration crisis, blame for which they say lies with the Biden administration.US Customs and Border Patrol recorded more than 1.94 million encounters at the border during the fiscal year 2022, up from previous record of 1.73 million encounters recorded a year before that. Republicans have blamed the border chaos on Biden’s determination to “undo everything former President Donald Trump had done”.

Texas Gov. Busses Migrants to LA, Says Biden ‘Refuses to Secure Border’
Amid the raging border crisis, Texas Governor Greg Abbott, along with authorities in Arizona and Florida, have been utilizing the strategy of sending busloads or even airplanes filled with illegal immigrants to the US capital and major Democratic Party strongholds - self-pronounced "sanctuary" cities.
Texas governor Greg Abbott has sent a
busload of undocumented migrants from his state to Los Angeles, California, while yet again slamming the administration of Joe Biden for failing to “secure the nation’s border.”
Abbott tweeted that border towns in his state were still overwhelmed by thousands of people illegally crossing in from Mexico because of Biden’s policies. He added that Los Angeles was a city that migrants “seek to go to, particularly now that its city leaders approved its self-declared sanctuary city status.” He also made a point of underscoring this was just the "1st bus", in a not-so-subtle hint of more to come.
The bus loaded with around 42 migrants, including 8 children, had arrived on June 14 at LA’s Union Station, according to local media reports, with a human rights organization taking them to the nearby St. Anthony Croatian Catholic Church.
The mayor of LA, Karen Bass, fumed in a statement that it was, “abhorrent that an American elected official is using human beings as pawns in his cheap political games.” She added that this was “a despicable stunt that Republican Governors have grown so fond of”.
“This did not catch us off guard, nor will it intimidate us. Now, it’s time to execute our plan. Our emergency management, police, fire and other departments were able to find out about the incoming arrival while the bus was on its way and were already mobilized along with nonprofit partners before the bus arrived,” she said.
