  1. Dropping them off in the middle of the night? Wasn't there a video last year of the Biden Administration doing the same thing? Corrupt government and media.

  2. Tens of millions of new democrat voters supplied by Obama and Soros for 2024. Watch when Biden is told to grant 40 million illegals from 187 countries…amnesty, by September. Welcome to socialism like Obama promised. "Fundamentally transform America" Nobody listened. Nevermind none of them are checked for vaccinations or even an ID. Biden's people have flown 90% of these illegals from Texas over the past 3 years. Report the truth, NBC. Flight records don't lie.

  3. S H U T T H E B O A R D E R B I D E N !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  4. BIDEN DOESN'T DESERVE ANY DONATIONS FOR HIS CAMPAIGN HE'S A TRAITOR!!! HE NEEDS TO BE IMPEACHED AND TRIED FOR TREASON!!!!

  5. Was Democrats policy 😂😂😂😂

  6. blame for what happens to the children is the parents because they knew of the danger of bringing them. But when ,came in the Caravan, they told them to bring your small children and the disabled, because the border patrols could not deny them assistance, the women get pregnant like that threir kid give them green card , it was crazy

  7. Keep sending them to these cities Governor.
    WE APPROVE.

  8. Be advised that there will be thousands more coming your way, Now you have been warned now prepare for them.

  9. Joe Biden is going to be label as the worst president in America history period

  10. Every time Mayor Johnson and Mayor Adams cry about their dilemma they complain about Governor Abbot. Why not get angry at the real culprit? Joe Biden! They never bring up his name, what are they afraid of? Grow a pair but in the meantime enjoy your new residents. Enjoy your Christmas presents more to come. You go governor Abbot!!

  11. Nice! Now, not only do American Airlines and United Airlines offer direct flights between El Paso and Chicago O'Hare, but apparently the Governor now runs a charter flight between these city pairs. Hilarious! 😅

  12. Cry babies. Dont cry just give them your house, car and go live in the street just like the dumdims want you to do. Or fight back

  13. Seems like Biden or the Secretary of Transportation (Pete Boody) would have transportation to transport these people as they come in. They know they’re coming. Biden invited them.

  17. Abbots job is to protect the people of Texas. Biden should be doing his job to protect Americans! Biden is braking our laws.

  18. Gov. Abbott is such a bro, securing passage for the migrants all the way to the sanctuary city.

  19. Just let Texas deal with it so I can keep my head in the Sand is what she said.

  20. Fled the scene in a Uber? 😂
