Gov Abbott's Classy Claps Back At Dem Who Called Him A Coward
Texas Governor Greg Abbott clapped back at the New York Democrat who called him and Arizona Governor Doug Ducey 'cowards' for transporting illegals out of their states. New York mayor Eric Adams whined during a presser last week about how his city has become 'overburdened' thanks to Abbott's efforts.
Adams hasn't dealt with the massive influx of illegals like the border states and had no idea, apparently, how overwhelming it is financially to shelter that many undocumented people. Mind you, Adams doesn't hold a fraction of the issue.
Considering the circumstances, Abbott handled himself with class and poise.
“Our country is home of the free, land of the brave,” Adams said “We do not become cowards and send people away who are looking for help.”
During the conference, Adams complained about the strain the illegals have out in New York:
“We already have an overburdened shelter system. So now we’re talking about, as you stated, food, clothing, schools,” Adams said. “This is going to impact our schools because we do not turn away individuals because they’re undocumented, or need translation services. There’s just a whole host of things that this is going to produce. And that’s why we need help in getting this done and we need to write coordination to make it happen.”

“Mayor Adams’ problem is not with Texas. It is with President Biden’s refusal to stop this border crisis and secure our southern border,” Abbott wrote.
“President Biden’s open border policies created this ongoing humanitarian crisis, allowing record-high illegal crossings and deadly drugs like fentanyl to flood into our state. A crisis that has overrun and overwhelmed our border towns and communities across our state, whose requests for help have gone ignored and unanswered by the Biden Administration,” he added.
In his letter, Abbott pointed out that the bus program sent illegals to D.C. noting that it was Biden who flew them to New York.
“I launched our border busing mission back in April to help our local partners, busing over 5,500 migrants to Washington, D.C. so far. Texas has not bused any migrants to New York,” Abbott noted. “Instead, it is President Biden who has flown planeloads of migrants to New York. Mayor Adams should address his frustration with migrants to the root cause: Joe Biden.”

Again, Adams has only dealt with a small number of migrants and for a short amount of time. Already he's screaming for daddy Biden's help. How much are you willing to bet he'll get it? The governors along the southern border have only been asking for help for two years now...
