The Governor of Texas, Greg Abbott, recently voiced his concerns about the ongoing migrant crisis and its repercussions on American communities during an interview on Fox News' Sunday Morning Futures with Maria Bartiromo.
Abbott's critique focused primarily on the Biden-Harris administration's management of illegal border crossings.
According to The Post Millennial, Abbott dismissed the administration's assertion that federal policies have led to a decrease in border crossings. He instead attributed the approximately 85 percent reduction in illegal immigration since last year to initiatives led by the state of Texas.
Abbott further contended that the Biden-Harris administration's approach to the border crisis involves transporting migrants into the US and dispersing them into various cities. "Another reason why the crossings at the border are down is because Biden is flying them across the border and then moving them to cities across the entire United States," Abbott elucidated.
The Texas governor also speculated on the potential consequences of a presidency under Kamala Harris, should she secure victory in the forthcoming election. Abbott drew attention to Harris' 2020 presidential campaign promises, which included decriminalizing border crossings, offering free healthcare to illegal immigrants, and dismantling Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). He cautioned that her strategy would result in "the most destructive border policy ever."
"As bad as illegal immigration is already, it would be far worse under a Harris administration," Abbott remarked.
These comments from Abbott arrive at a time when the Biden-Harris administration is under increasing scrutiny for its border policies. Charlie Kirk from Turning Point USA echoed Abbott's sentiments in a post on X, stating, "Hes 100% right. Democrats realized border images were bad PR, so now they just give them free airfare to anywhere they want to go. Treasonous." Elon Musk, owner of X, concurred with Abbott's position, labeling the administration's actions as "treason."
