Another bus from Texas carrying migrants from south of the border arrived in Los Angeles Saturday, the 10th such arrival since June 14, Mayor Karen Bass’ office announced.

    They are lying to the people to get them on the bus, which fits the definition. It is the same thing as someone in another country saying that they have a job lined up or certain connections to get people to a place they wouldn’t actually want to go if they knew the truth.

      Are they? I know the people DeSatan sent to Martha’s Vineyard were lied to, but I don’t have anything which suggests these people were lied to. Saying things like “there’s more jobs in California” or whatever doesn’t really count

        Wait, are you saying that although another Republican governor was caught blatantly lying about the exact same situation that we need to hold off on judgement on a second one doing the same thing?

          I’m saying that there’s not much legal ability to prosecute a governor for their official actions they take while in office.

              I mean, okay, but calling it stupid doesn’t make prosecuting Greg Abbott a good idea. Personally, I just root for tree branches to finish the job

                Wait, so you’re saying “don’t prosecute him, just execute him extrajudiciously by lynching?”

                  More like crossing my fingers that another tree branch falls on him. I don’t support political violence. I just will nature to do a better job next time.

                  I live eight miles from the Texas border, it’s dark humor.

                    Fair. “Tree branches” carries with it certian…connotations… Not to censor you or anything, but personally to convey the same meaning without that possible misunderstanding I’d borrow from the ACME corporation from Looney Tunes fame, as in an anvil, piano, or safe accident. Or just “I straight up hope he has a fatal accident.” Or anything that could be fatal but not read as purposeful, like the ambiguous “tree branch” that could involve either simply gravity, or rope and gravity.

                    I agree with you, political violence is not good, nature is another matter.
