Texas Governor Greg Abbott just hit a very big nerve.
Abbott shipped 75 illegal immigrants to Chicago this week.
When they arrived, Mayor Lori Lightfoot lost it!
No Morals
Lightfoot claimed that Abbott is putting her city in crisis.
He sent her 75 people, and she claims this is a crisis.
Does she realize that, on average, more than 6,000 illegals come into Texas every day of the week?
How would she define that?
Lightfoot stated, “Let me say loud and clear to Greg Abbott and his enablers in Texas with these continued political stunts, Gov. Abbott has confirmed what unfortunately many of us had known already, that he is a man without any morals, humanity or shame.”
She continued, “These are human beings, moms and dads, young children, elders, who deserve our respect and dignity.
“They’re not cargo. They are not chattel. They’re human beings, just like you and me.
“Gov. Abbott’s racist and xenophobic practices of expulsion have only amplified the challenges many of these migrants have experienced on their journey to find a safe place.
“The governor’s actions are not just inhumane, they are unpatriotic.”
Ahh, there it is… the race card.
Abbott responded, “President Biden’s inaction at our southern border continues putting the lives of Texans — and Americans — at risk and is overwhelming our communities.
“To continue providing much-needed relief to our small, overrun border towns, Chicago will join fellow sanctuary cities Washington, D.C., and New York City as an additional drop-off location.
“Mayor Lightfoot loves to tout the responsibility of her city to welcome all, regardless of legal status, and I look forward to seeing this responsibility in action as these migrants receive resources from a sanctuary city with the capacity to serve them.”
Abbott’s press secretary Renea Eze added, “Where was her outrage and condemnation of President Biden as he flew planeloads of migrants across the country and dropped them in communities in the cover of night?
“Mayor Lightfoot knows nothing about Texas’ busing strategy and needs to stop with the baseless lies and fearmongering.
“Texas continues stepping up and responding to the Biden-made border crisis, taking unprecedented action to address the historic levels of illegal immigrants, terrorists, and deadly drugs like fentanyl that are surging into our communities and overwhelming border towns.
“If the mayor wants a solution to this humanitarian crisis, she should stop complaining and call on President Biden to take immediate action to secure the border — something the President continues failing to do.”
