Abbott: ‘As many as 100,000’ migrants waiting to cross into Texas; Gov. Abbott says he will send more than 400 buses of migrants to DC as he laments Biden and Harris have ‘never once’ reached out to him about the crisis – with White House steering clear of border the day Title 42 was supposed to end

Abbott: ‘As many as 100,000’ migrants waiting to cross into Texas:

Local and state officials in Texas are bracing for a humanitarian and security crisis as roughly 100,000 migrants wait in northern Mexico to cross the border illegally in the coming day.

Gov. Greg Abbott, a Republican, warned that a federal judge’s decision to continue a pandemic policy for turning away migrants at the border has only delayed the rush of migrants that had been expected Monday, when the Title 42 policy was slated to be lifted. Abbott warned instead that those waiting in Mexico could choose to cross at any time and that the state was preparing for a number of situations.

“There are maybe as many as 100,000 migrants who are across the border waiting to cross into the state of Texas,” Abbott said during a press conference in Eagle Pass on Monday afternoon. “And we as a state — ‘we’ being the local communities that are represented here in this room today — they’re all dealing with the enormous challenge of having a tidal wave of people come into the communities.”

Abbott and top state law enforcement and military officials visited the town of 29,000 residents Monday to see how federal, state, and local authorities planned to respond if thousands of people were to cross at once. At present, Eagle Pass is seeing 1,000 people taken into custody for unlawful entry daily, Mayor Rolando Salinas told the Washington Examiner. —>READ MORE HERE

Gov. Abbott says he will send more than 400 buses of migrants to DC as he laments Biden and Harris have ‘never once’ reached out to him about the crisis – with White House steering clear of border the day Title 42 was supposed to end

Governor Greg Abbott said Monday that Texas has been forced to ‘fight’ against the Biden administration regarding border security and said he wants to flood Washington, D.C. with 450 buses of migrants so the nations’ capital can experience what his state’s communities are facing.

The governor, speaking at a press conference in Eagle Pass, Texas on Monday afternoon, said that the cities and towns in his state are seeing ‘illegal migrants dumped off in their communities’ by the busloads every day.

‘They had no capability of dealing with them,’ Abbott told the press gathered in Eagle Pass City Hall. ‘And they talked about having to put them on buses and send them up to San Antonio. I said, I’ve got a better idea – we’re going to send them to Washington, D.C.’

‘We’re trying to help communities… along the southern border not have to deal with this tidal wave of people in their communities,’ he added. ‘So we are a relief valve for those communities by moving the migrants out and getting them to Washington, D.C.’

‘And we’re up to our 45th bus now, when you add a zero to that, I think Washington D.C. is going to soon find out they’re dealing with the same consequences as we’re dealing with,’ Abbott proposed.

The governor said that neither President Joe Biden nor Vice President Kamala Harris have personally reached out to him to speak about the southern border crisis.

‘President Biden has never once even tried to contact me about the border,’ Abbott said. ‘The czar for the border, Kamala Harris, has never once tried to contact me.’ —>READ MORE HERE
