I’m guessing Abbott will send another bus load of illegals to Kamala’s DC residence shortly
Border Czar Kamala Harris Accuses Abbott of ‘Dereliction of Duty’ for Busing Migrants Out of Texas
Vice President Kamala Harris, who was tapped by President Biden to address the ongoing crisis at the Southern border, lashed out at Texas governor Greg Abbott for busing migrants to so-called sanctuary jurisdictions during an appearance on Late Night with Seth Meyers Monday, accusing the border-state governor of “dereliction of duty.”
“I just think it’s an absolute dereliction of duty. If you see a problem and we agree that we need to address it, then if you’re a leader, participate in a solution, right?” Harris said. “They’ve fled great harm and they are coming here seeking refuge. Talk about political theater.”
Harris has overseen skyrocketing rates of illegal migrants crossing the border since being made border czar. This April, nearly a quarter-of-a-million migrants were apprehended along the U.S.-Mexico border, nearly half of whom were released internally. Yet, Harris still insisted in the interview that the border is “secure” and that Abbott should work on constructive solutions instead of “this gamesmanship with real human beings who trust us.The comments come after Abbott sent a bus full of migrants to Harris’s official residence at the Naval Observatory in Washington, D.C., last week. The bus was just one of many that the governor has shipped to Democratic-controlled cities as part of Operation Lone Star. He announced Monday that the state has sent 8,200 migrants to D.C., 3,200 to New York City, and 920 to Chicago since the program began in the spring.

This is the border czar who’s never been to the border during her time as vice president. Complaining about Abbott. Funny no mention of the Democratic Party mayor of El Paso, Oscar Leeser, who’s sent 60 busloads to sanctuary cities. But, it is fantastic that Democrats are whining up a storm over being forced to confront the open borders they say they support.
Harris and other Democrats practice zero self awareness on this issue. Transporting Aliens to other states without state consent is exactly what the Federal government does as a routine practice. It’s immoral when Abbot does it twice a month, but not when the Biden administration does it every day.
Our magnificent host quoted:
That’s just it: Governor Abbott is “participat(ing) in a solution”: he’s sending the illegal immigrants to jurisdictions which welcome them, and will provide a safe haven from which state and local authorities will not try to deport them. The blue states tend to be wealthier than red states, so those areas will have more resources to care for the poor, downtrodden immigrants.
