  1. After Trump wins, every Democrat should be fined $20,000 each to pay for this.

  2. NYC teachers are bitching about giving up a tiny 15% of their salaries for these migrants? How disturbing.

  3. They ALL enter our NATION ILEGALY[ WHICH IS A CRIME] and is beyond words why they getting EVERYTHING for FREE and our VETERANS and many low income FAMILIES of our own are struggling.
    STOP THIS OPEN BORDER CRIMES NOW….TRUMP 2024 MAGA 🇺🇸 ❤

  4. Chicago needs to send them to the white house lol😂

  5. Americans need to take the Second Amendment and guard the borders of our country because our government will not!
    It's up to us now our country is in danger our families are in danger I pray that nothing bad happens, and everything's going to be all rite.
    But I don't feel like that any more.
    So helping protect our country borders with our Second Amendment sounds like a way to do our part and responsibility as Americans.
    God bless U.S.A.

  6. This Kangaroo Court is obviously Anti-Whiteism

  7. Texas pawning off their “undesirables” to Chicago. How predictable and typical

  8. Thank You Texas. Send them to these Sanctuary Cities. Props to Texans

  9. if you have no problem ppl coming through the border, you should also have no problem them coming to your state

  10. Migrants get Fly jet 😂

  11. I m peach f joke biden corruption crimes family and failed administration

  12. A soft invasion of our country, like sand through the hourglass so are the days of our U.S.A.

  13. This IS an invasion, if a man breaks into your home he is considered an invader regardless of wether or not he is military or brandishing a weapon he is still an invader and these people are invading our country along with hundreds of terrorists..

  14. Abbott, it's been a huge disappointment to Texans. He didn't do anything over the last couple of years. Sending a few hundred here or there won't make much difference when he allows 12k illegals to cross the Texas border every single day. I never voted in primary for him and never will. He has all the tools to stop this. National Guards, Police, can mobilize citizens. This should never happen.

  15. This is the man messing up America by sending them further in America and doing this for political act is wrong

  16. Say Jesus is Lord and I believe in my heart that God raised him from the death on third days Forgive me with your blood Jesus & save me in Jesus name.

  17. Only if Abbott can send natural disasters to other states, he would

  18. That's against federal law!
    8 U.S.C. 1324 federal law prohibits smuggling and transportation of illegal aliens.
    And transportation across state lines is another felony.

  19. Poor people are much easier to regulate. A brilliant decision by the biden twenty twenty four

  20. This is stupid and going to boomerang back onto Texas someway, somehow.

  21. I love how none of them are Mexican.

  22. Chicago needs some diversity, although the migrants themselves good use some diversity

  23. Fly the immigrants to the Reagan library and the HW BUSH library they are the 2 presidents who passed into law the current immigration laws we have today ( Reagan 1986 immigration reform, HW BUSH 1990 immigration act ) facts are facts. Trump controlled Congress and Senate his first 2 years in office and did nothing to repeal Reagans 1986 immigration reform or HW BUSH 1990 immigration act. Facts are painful as all hell but facts can't be erased.

  24. Flying back where they came from.

  25. I love reading emotional, hypocritical Leftists on the topics they set the level for. 😂

  26. ( there's always a trouble maker, just makes things harder and dangerous, hot wheels is one of them, remove and replace!)

  27. We also need to send them north on the RIVER BARGES . we can move alot of them that way!

  28. Close the border like WH does.

  29. These are NOT MIGRANTS. You are being programmed to call them that.

  30. God bless Abbot. Chicago take it up with Joe whom u voted for!!

  31. I remember when Trump handled it better

  32. Close border and boot Biden out of office, nobody voted for this

  33. Quit using our Covid funds to send them to other places! I swear, when this Covid money runs out, y’all are going to stop doing this, watch!

  34. da mexican gov is getting $$$ from the united states democratic party for a potential voting base and cheap labor

  35. Record surge? What was all that “there’s no crisis at the border” for over 36 months? Just Democrat and Biden administration lies?

  36. Gov Texas so freaking drama and want the public attention ….what a drama queen .

  37. Abbott never does his job ! Always passing the buck! He has his Texans snowed! Glad I don't live in abbotville Texas!

  38. Ya Think they'll fly me up to Minnesota to see my mom for Christmas??🤔

  39. Texas was once a land of patriots. Now it is a land of petty potentates and tyrants

  40. Proud of Chighetto being a democrap sanctuary city, keep them coming!
