      From: johnny@invalid.net              By Jon Michael Raasch       Published August 13, 2022              Washington, D.C., and New York City can handle a few busloads of       migrants if small border towns could endure hundreds – or thousands –       of migrants every day, the mayor of McAllen, Texas, told Fox News.              New York City Mayor Eric Adams and Washington, D.C, Mayor Muriel Bowser       criticized Texas Gov. Greg Abbott for busing hundreds of migrants from       his state's border to their northern cities.               Adams called Abbott's busing program "inhumane," while Bowser likened       the arrival of migrants to a "humanitarian crisis."              "You see New York, you see Washington kind of drowning with a few       buses," McAllen Mayor Javier Villalobos told Fox News. "We used to get       over a thousand-something people a day."               "The city of McAllen was able to deal with thousands of immigrants a       day," Villalobos said. "I think they can handle a few hundred."              https://www.foxnews.com/politics/dc-new-york-handle-migrant-buse       -border-towns-survived-thousands-migrants-daily-texas-mayor-says               Trump had the border stabilized with his remain in Mexico policy. He       knew it wasn't right for people to pass through several countries to       seek asylum in the US.              The first thing Biden did when he took office was to repeal the remain       in Mexico policy, and created a humanitarian crisis like this country       has never seen. It has been going on for two and a half years with no       end in sight.              You have to ask yourself why he did it.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
