'Blood on his hands': Abbott under fire for busing migrants to Chicago after 3-year-old dies

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott faced fresh criticism on Friday after officials confirmed a young child died during a bus trip from the border city of Brownsville to Chicago, Illinois—part of the Republican's monthslong stunt of transporting migrants to communities with Democratic leaders.

"The Illinois Department of Public Health said the child was 3 years old and died Thursday in Marion County, in the southern part of that state," according toThe Associated Press.

Citing Congressman Joaquin Castro (D-Texas), whose office was brief on the death, The New York Timesreported that "the child's parents were also on the bus when the child began showing symptoms of an illness, including a fever and diarrhea, before losing consciousness."

The Texas Division of Emergency Management (TDEM) said in a statement that "once the child presented with health concerns, the bus pulled over and security personnel on board called 911 for emergency attention. After the ambulance arrived, bilingual security personnel translated for the parents and the paramedics who were providing care for the child."
 
"The child was then taken to a local hospital to receive additional medical attention and was later pronounced deceased," TDEM continued. The division noted that prior to boarding a bus "stocked with food and water," passengers "signed a voluntary consent waiver" to travel to Chicago and were screened for medical concerns.

#1 The parents and child are ILLEGALS.  They shouldn't be in the country anyways and perhaps whatever journey they had to travel to enter this country ILLEGALLY is truly what eventually killed the child.

It is horrible that a child died, but I can't blame Abbott for the death.  It is the circumstances of the decisions that the parents made for the child.  They need to accept responsibility.

I guess there weren't any signs of illness prior to her death, and she got on the bus, so the parents can't be blamed for neglecting her needs.

The parents neglected this child's health and are responsible for the death, not the governor of the state they illegally invaded.

The child's death is tragic.

The blame does not lay with Governor Abbott.  He is doing everything in his power to serve and protect the citizens of Texas and watch out for the welfare of migrants.

The blame lay with the Biden administration.  Border Control and Foreign Policy are Federal responsibilities.  The Federal Government has been derelict from these responsibilities.

Biden's Border czarina, Kamala Harris, has been an absent, abject failure.

The Limousine LIberals care more about the fraudulent Global Climate Change crisis than the real-world problems of human beings.
