    The Crisis in New York does not exist, ignore the over flowing shelters and streets.

      No one is fixing houselessness so why are you bringing it up in a thread about a border crossing?

        Because they are trying to distract with a shitty whataboutism argument.

        Also, if anything, Texas is potentially contributing to New York’s homeless problem by spending millions of dollars busing migrants and dropping them off at the city without any support. If these are “invaders”, then Texas is aiding the “enemy” and conducting economic warfare against the city.

          I wholeheartedly accept Abbott’s framing that this is an invasion. Moving invaders farther into the country they are invading is certainly providing aid and comfort. Therefore, Greg Abbott is a traitor.

        Maybe they’re suggesting the MAGAians should’ve convoyed to New York instead and volunteered at some shelters, helping the least amongst us like their Bible says.

        Context from behind the NYT paywall:

      What is a convoy of retired hillbillies driving down to Texas going to do to fix that? Do you think if they go down there and start a-shootin’ Messicans that somehow all the undocumented immigrants in New York will dissolve into puddles on the sidewalk?

        Just like vampires, if you kill the Master the underlings turn into US citizens.

          the underlings turn into US citizens.

          Uh-oh. That’s the last thing these bigots want.

      You mean the New York that has a fascist cop (but I repeat myself) as a mayor? The New York whose local Dem leadership is probably the second most conservative and corrupt from lack of competition after that of Chicago? That New York?
