It's still probably cheaper than housing, food, clothing, cell phones, healthcare, etc... per illegal.

I agree, but I want this effort increased by 10,000%...ALL of the illegals need to be shipped to Lib cities. 8,400 is totally insufficient for me...C'mon Abbott, step it up big time.

Signage there has been in both English and Spanish for over 40 years that I know about personally. Unloading a bus full of Spanish-speaking people there is like unloading Br’er Rabbit in a briar patch.

Smooth move, Governor ExLax.
If Abbott bussed them back over the border they'd be back again the next day! Busing them instead to those who want and defend them need to deal with them instead so they can see what a big problem they are. A bus ticket is much cheaper than allowing them to remain in Texas where these illegals and bogus asylum seekers cost their state much, much more.

WTH does what language they speak have to do with anything? Spanish is being spoken and signage in that language are all over the country.

Yes, smooth move Governor Abbott and I applaud him.

Governor Abbott seems to have moved the Washington DC stop to right outside of Kamala Harris residence.

Governor Abbott also sent around 150 migrants to the ultra-liberal city of Denver for migrants looking for that perfect Colorado ski vacation.

How generous of Governor Abbott to give migrants a free bus to Colorado which is one of the most Democratic states in the country that will always put the needs of illegal aliens first.

And legal marijuana.

So you are in favor of moving tens of thousands of immigrants into the interior of the country at random to protest thousands of immigrants coming into the interior of the country at random?

That checks. Got it. They appreciate the transportation.

Out of curiosity - Do you keep a bucket of gasoline on hand to put out fires...?

Their own eviction laws would make it hard to get rid of them.
Help them break into dem owned houses and claim "squatters" rights and they CANNOT be evicted.

BUT yes the USA needs to take a firm, thoughtful approach and provide the resources at the ports of entry and border to manage the surge of asylum seekers.

We need to addres the kick the can policies of the past and all the undocumented workers who were encouraged by individuals, companies, local,state and federal officials to seek a beter life (so we could have cheap labor).

But a wall solved nothing.
It was expensive and simple...but it solved nothing.
"BUT yes the USA needs to take a firm, thoughtful approach and provide the resources at the ports of entry and border to manage the surge of asylum seekers."

B.S.

We have ZERO responsibility to assist those that want to come here.

It is a PRIVILEGE, NOT a RIGHT!

We DO have imagination LAWS that need to need to be ENFORCED!

You know in south east Houston there is a very large (historic) Mexican population. A small # of Arabs are in this community. They speak English, Arabic and Mexican Spanish perfectly… many people cannot tell the difference between them and Hispanics because of their skin tone.

It would be unfortunate if some of these bussed migrants turn out to be Islamic terrorists. It would be even more unfortunate if they are taking free rides to plan out and execute the next 9/11. I know republicans with all their love for the USA would love to see NYC, Phiily, DC, Chicago, etc get blown off the map with hundreds of thousands of liberals killed- but they need to be careful what they wish for.
