What Liberals Don’t Want to Admit About Influxes of Migrants
Matt Lewis - Yesterday 8:03 PM
When I first heard Republican governors were busing or flying migrants to liberal sanctuary cities, I was instantly opposed to it. To me, it felt like yet another cruel stunt meant to boost their standing with the GOP base.
But then, I started hearing about leaders from these liberal cities signing “disaster declarations,” complaining that the “horrific” influx was creating a “humanitarian situation,” and reports saying it “strained a social safety net.”
And then it hit me. While these stunts may be callow, there’s still a there there. Blue states are finally getting a taste of what red border states have to deal with every day.
Case in point: a total influx of around 7,000 migrants caused Washington, D.C.’s mayor to declare a public emergency and ask the National Guard for help. But that number doesn’t equal the number of migrants who are stopped crossing the southern border in a single day. Heck, according to El Paso Times, there were “more than 900 migrants released by U.S. Border Patrol in Downtown El Paso over the past week.”
