Over the weekend, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott’s administration allegedly sent three buses full of criminal noncitizens to Vice President Kamala Harris’ residence. This small reminder of the ongoing crisis confronting Americans in border towns besieged by hordes of illegal immigrants was not well received.
The White House condemned the move, claiming that it only served to “endanger lives.”
Not in Kamala Harris’ neighborhood.
On Christmas Eve, three buses carrying approximately 130 of the 465,034 criminal noncitizens who have illegally entered the country so far in fiscal year 2023 arrived at Harris’ Washington residence at the Naval Observatory.
According to reports, the passengers came from Ecuador, Cuba, Nicaragua, Venezuela, Peru, and Colombia.
Despite the 15-degree weather, Harris, who previously emphasized the importance of being “welcoming” to illegal aliens, did not appear to invite the criminal noncitizens inside.
According to CNN, two busloads of people were taken to local shelters. Other illegal immigrants were given blankets and placed on another bus bound for a nearby church.
“Governor Abbott abandoned children on the side of the road in below-freezing temperatures on Christmas Eve without coordinating with any federal or local authorities,” said White House spokesman Abdullah Hasan.
Hasan called this latest effort to transport illegal immigrants to a sanctuary city and others like it “political games that accomplish nothing and only endanger lives.”
The White House spokesman went on to say that the Biden administration is “willing to work with anyone – Republican or Democrat alike – on real solutions, like the comprehensive immigration reform and border security measures President Biden sent to Congress on his first day in office.”
Despite the Biden administration’s alleged commitment to working on “real solutions,” TheBlaze previously reported that Biden has provided foreign nationals with incentives to enter the country illegally, such as health care, an end to detentions of illegal border crossers, an end to deportations, and amnesty, in addition to seeking to repeal Trump’s Title 42 policy.
According to Reuters, Abbott has not yet claimed responsibility for sending the buses to Harris’ house; however, on December 20, the governor reiterated that the Lone Star State will “continue busing migrants to sanctuary cities.”
According to Newsweek, the governor’s spokesperson Renae Eze appeared to confirm Abbott’s involvement in the Christmastime delivery, stating that the illegal aliens “willingly” chose to visit Washington on Saturday.
“The White House is full of hypocrites, led by the Hypocrite-in-Chief, who has been flying planeloads of migrants across the country, often at night,” Eze said.
Eze noted that the criminal noncitizens who showed up at Harris’ house had “They agreed on the destination and signed a voluntary consent waiver available in multiple languages upon boarding. And they were processed and released by the federal government, which is dumping them at historic levels in Texas border towns like El Paso, which has declared a state of emergency as a result of the Biden-created crisis.”
“Rather than making hypocritical complaints about Texas providing much-needed relief to our overrun and overwhelmed border communities, President Biden and Border Czar Harris must step up and do their jobs to secure the border—something they continue to fail to do,” Eze added.
Despite the White House’s accusation of cruelty, Abbott has emphasized that Biden and his administration are to blame for the humanitarian crisis.
On December 20, Abbott demanded that Biden deploy federal assets to “address the dire border crisis… as a dangerously cold polar vortex moves into Texas.”
“”This terrible crisis for Texas border communities is entirely your fault,” Abbott wrote. “These communities and the state are ill-equipped to do the job assigned to the federal government—house the thousands of migrants flooding into the country every day. With dangerous temperatures in the area, many of these migrants risk freezing to death on city streets. It is not the responsibility of border states like Texas to address this crisis.”
“You must execute the duties that the United States Constitution requires you to perform and secure the southern border before more innocent lives are lost,” Abbott added.
Meanwhile, one nonprofit that assists illegal immigrants has stated that busing is not the worst option.
According to Tatiana Laborde, managing director of SAMU First Response, busing criminal noncitizens to sanctuary cities could help ease tensions at the southern border if done properly.
“What they’re seeing is far worse than what we’re seeing. The three buses are only a small part of what they go through on a daily basis “Laborde stated. “If this is done in a coordinated and humane manner, it could be a really good option for those border towns that are struggling.”
Although criminal noncitizens were temporarily exposed to the cold in Washington, those whom Biden invited to come face even worse fates when attempting to enter the country illegally.
When traveling to the United States’ southern border, illegal aliens face “freezing temperatures, fast-moving water, and the risk of being kidnapped by cartels or exploited by human traffickers,” according to the New York Post.
