Welcome to America!
Thank You Abbott!
POSTCARD FROM AMERICA. Homeless line the dirty American streets.
Mexicans die in the back of trucks while pink Ukrainians get guided tours.
Title 42: Americans infect Mexicans with Covid. US 1,061,346 Mexico 328,596.
Pinkies stole California, Texas, Nevada, Utah, Arizona, New Mexico & Western Colorado from Mexico.
So proud standing up to illegals.
. Stressing our schools and medical systems try it in NYC and DC… its bad.. wake up.
Mexico won't even take them…
Mayor Adams is a political POS.
God! Because when living it's full that people ist to many problem neighborhoods
Mc allen Texas
New York and Washington DC political criminals are getting what they deserve!!!
This is priceless. I can’t stop giggling
Abbot needs to send them back …Then process them …All undocumented people should start rally mayor residents…They needs documents too .This is definitely nonsense
PLEASE stop sending immigrants to DEMOCRATS RUN DOWN CITIES…. We ONLY say that we want them because it SOUNDS good in the NEWS!!!
WE LIKE IMMIGRANTS , MIGRANTS OR ASYLUM SEEKERS SOMEWHERE ELSE .BUT HERE…🤭
Hilarious
Habla Espanol
TX and Az have been dealing with this problem for years now. Keep those buses rolling in so those who wanted open borders can deal with the consequences of their decisions!
See what that “New York welcome” looks like next week after another 20 busses. Over a MILLION have crossed the border this fiscal year and these guys are crying about a few bud loads. 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Send all the buses to the front lawn of the White House
I feel sorry for the taxpayers of NY ,Now you know why they need 87.000 More irs agents someone has to pay for the WELFARE STATE.
Welcome my fellow ms13 members started from the now we own it.
Help our homeless, our struggling families!!!!!! But no you wanna help the border first and not Americans
America first Jo's biden…we need to come first !!!!!!
Close the border and help Americans first !!!!!!
"May not be able to keep up with demand" Ok then why get them into the US? 🤔
This is actually a smart move on Republicans. Eventually democrats will realize that they cannot afford to keep every single illegal immigrant crossing the border.
immigration should be safe, legal and rare
Ok so as an independent I have a question. I am confused. Why are they mad even though they want them? 🤔
They should embrace it those people love living in crowded conditions. All city people do.
But what is the purpose. Can't the illegal immigrants eventually go Texas if they want to?
Where the money coming from to support all these immigrants.? I thought that NY city already has problems with homeless.
JUSTICE MUST BE SERVED ON UVALDE'S TX SCHOOL MASSACRE !! JUSTICE 🇺🇲 JUSTICE 🇺🇲 JUSTICE 🇺🇲 JUSTICE 🇺🇲 JUSTICE 🇺🇲 JUSTICE 🇺🇲 JUSTICE 🇺🇲 JUSTICE 🇺🇲
i should be on that bus
How do we know as citizens that Abbot has not sent assassinations to Washington D.C. or New York. If something happens to the immigrants or other high position people will be on Abbot. Does he even screen these people? Or just ships them illegally. My Opinion
I really want to meet Abbot, he's my Lincoln .
That governor is over his head. Lack of organization and knowledge. What a shame
I just hope they never realize what we did to live here lol!!!
Way to go. The next 20 busses should go directly to Michigan and Minnesota. Send to Omar and Ocasio territory’s.
I mean tbh we all should be taking these PEOPLE in under the current laws… not just border states
Lmfao 😭😭😭
This may honestly be the worst painter ever right here . This guy was also a drunken crackhead that would go job to job just collecting deposits and basically scamming people . He'd regularly get kicked off of jobs , he'd run out of deposit money on jobs before completion and would take the nexts jobs deposit to fund the current job . He's has had multiple lawsuits filed against him . He is from NH and recently ran away to Texas , DO NOT HIRE !! https://youtu.be/3NViHnpVRRw
Shouldn't it be illegal to trans port illegals over state lines
I get his political justification for sending them to D.C. (where the big decisions are made) but what is his justification for sending them to New York? I don't think he has one.
Can I trade my US citizenship with a fellow Mexican? They can have this dumpster fire. Viva la Mexico!
Well, just cut off the money we send Texas for migrants and send it to New York and Washington.
5500 only complaint too much how TX
How does a governor have the authority to send these people anywhere? This should be up to federal customs and immigration authorities to make decisions. Abbott is using these asylum seekers as pawns in his hateful political calculations.
Great more money because these people raid our border speaking no English and hands out right after you help they turn and start gangs and underpriced labor which honestly they will play the no habla game everytime something is asked it's wrong to hire illegals against the law it's a crime they have committed why is it they just get here and no crime is pressed against them they broke the law people what if that's you needing to get into Mexico for any reason and being illegal they lock you up and extort you for ransom you are illegal man broke the law
Let's Build a city for them on Abbott's Property!!!
Keep it up TEXAS!!!
Governor Abbott is awesome 👌 👏 👍
Send them all to Bidens front lawn.
Woohoo! 😁😃😁
New York is a sanctuary city…
Rememberrrrrr?????
Carrying nothing but a little bag and a new apple Iphone the kids are hungry and shoeless but the phone has a cover And moms makeup is on think enough to hide a ton of drugs
NY should allow (and buy tickets / fare for) all homeless in NY who want to – to get on those buses returning to tx … giving them a hundred dollars in pocket money for food and incidentals on the way. They should of course be required to sign contracts stating they're doing it of their own free will and will not hold NY liable for anything which happens once they board the buses and depart – including and especially once they're actually in texas. The ‘homeless’ should also include the very immigrants who have dis-embarked in NY [from texas] at the top of the waiting list.
Luv hearing how illegals say they deserve to be here or something. Justifiable arrogance since we don't even seem to have a border now. It's great to have millions flooding in with dubious job skills, little to no English, possible tropical diseases, with their hands out for house keys. It's especially great when the emergency rooms are full of illegals and our insurance bills go up for the non-payers. Abbott needs to step up and send more, plenty of room in the pricey gated communities of the East Coast. They can get 0 interest loans funded by taxpayers and build on the golf courses.
