Don't want to hear it. Denver is a Sanctuary city, and you need to take responsibility to take care of these immigrants. Declaring that Denver is a sanctuary city is an invitation to come. Since I do not support this action, do not expect me and other Americans who feel the same to support your declaration. Democrats are so adept at sucking tax $$s from the struggling middle class. It's sickening.
too much IDLING AROUND AND LOITERING- its gets really depressing and boring
He is a liar starting from his first statement when he says he is the "largest recipient" of illegals. TEXAS IS! and in much smaller cities. He is also a hypocrite. He was silent and criticized Abbott until he learned the reality. Now he's saying exactly what Abbott has said for the the 3 years of the Biden-created crisis. It is sad to see a liar and hypocrite running a great city. He also says he wants to work with Texas but why doesn't he just take all the migrants as the sanctuary city he runs and as he and his party insisted Texas do before it came to their backyard.
No one should vote for liars and hypocrites.
This mayor bitches about a few hundred sowing up in his city. TX deals with 7K a day coming in. Why is this mayor threatening to cut city services. Maybe if he does nothing to help the illegals they will tell others not to come. Why is taxpayer money being used to take care of these illegals? The only help illegals should be getting is through private donations.
Denver you have shown what you and policker the gov deserve, communist governments make you California
President Biden needs to listen to the Mayors, and to the Governors too. Also Governor Abbott should be giving advance notice to the cities. What a mess.
No money for the ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS, Get your heads out of your asses you blue mayors.
๐ How is that even a Mayor?
Dems love sanctuary cities until they actually get immigrants show up, they want everybody to pay for their bad policies.
This guy was on TV not too long ago, saying that he welcomes emigrants into the country and into his city as long as they arrive between the hours of 9 to 5.
They are NOT asylum seekers. They are illegal immigrants. If you support this you are guilty of human trafficking.
I say ship them all back to Texas since Abbott isnt even trying to send the people back to Mexico or wherever they came from
You want them to stop coming so you give them money? It doesn't work that way. Think.
flood a country endlessly with poor people, eventually the economy would collapse.
Denver Mayor, the people of New Orlean, are AMERICAN CITIZENS THAT PAY TAXES๐. DO NOT COMPARE THEM WITH ILLEGAL LAW BREAKING IMMIGRANTS. ๐ก๐ก๐ก
As a Sanctuary city, we need to accept all people in Denver! Letโs show them love anc compassion no matter how much itโs costs. Bring them all!
Biden has abandoned his position as fake president
Denver stupid leadership ๐ฟ๐คง๐ก๐ ๐น๐ณ๐ค๐ค๐ค democratic cities caused the mess, DEMOCRATS FOR TRUMP
Democrats for TRUMP, Biden leaves united States and goes on vacation, Biden hates Americans โฑ๏ธ๐ค๐๏ธ๐ฟโฑ๏ธโฑ๏ธ๐ค๐๏ธ๐บโฑ๏ธ๐๏ธ๐ฉ๐ฆจ๐ณ๏ธ
We have a lot of homeless in Denver!! Take care of them!!!
What a POS!?
Biden has put our country and her people in danger…he should be impeached
1:30 THESE ARE ALL PHOTO OPTS
its clear they have NO FOOD they are not traveling thousands of miles like this
they are literally traveling a few MILES like this
OMG, These foolish mayors want more money to fund this, instead of requesting to close the border! This is just insane!!
WE ARE NOT A SOCIALIST NATION
WE HAVE NO OBLIGATIONS TO FEED OR HOUSE ANYONE LET ALONE FOREIGN lNVADERS
Why doesn't the U.S. just take over Mexico? It's a beautiful country and plenty of Americans are retiring to cities there as well as vacationing there. We could take out the cartels and build the country up so that the Mexican people will thrive and won't want to come here. Not so crazy to me.
Send military from All states along all borders and close. No processing and turnaround. Secure and protect America. Illegal means illegal!
Send them back to Texas. Abbott is responsible for this.
Pero que esperan? En FLorida los mandabN para atrรขs y a Disantis todavia sigue de GOBERNADOR!!!
Johnston is the only one that actually said "They would work with Governor Abbott". Of course, he said it real fast. Did you tell your buddies Adams and Johnson that too? Governor Abbott would have talked to any of you in the beginning, but you would rather blame him when this crisis is NOT his fault. He is the only one taking action. The three of you need to eat your pride and work with him to resolve the problem.
If the mayors are just now asking for help and getting news coverage, how BAD must it really be? Meanwhile we have a growing homeless population and American citizens who are struggling to make ends meet. Heartbreaking.
Denver Mayor's acting like these illegal aliens came into this country legally and treating them like they deserve to be given all kinds of free government funded stuff and every time a liberal Democrat opens their mouths they want more money federal tax dollars paid for by hard-working conservative who actually have jobs and are not sitting around laying around like big fat cats on welfare
Over 8 million illegal aliens in this country and counting that's not including the 11 plus million dreamers and counting who are in this country illegally
I remember one of Joe biden's ignorant campaign speeches where he was saying he was going to change the face of America and brown it out
Excellent job Governor Abbott keeps sending these bus loads of law breaking border breaking illegal aliens to New York Martha's vineyard send them to Washington DC right in front of the white house that would be excellent๐
Send them back to where they originated from
NO NO AND NO NOT 1 PENNY IT WILL ONLY BRING MORE AND MORE !! LOOK AT ALL THE AMERICAN LIVING OUT ON THE STREET!! There all illegal and the lies to come here !!
