Sanctuary city sending thousands of migrants back to Texas by plane, bus
Story by Adam Shaw, Brooke Taylor • 12h


New York City is buying tickets for thousands of migrants to travel to Texas via bus or plane, from where many of them originally traveled to the sanctuary city in the first place, amid an ongoing battle between officials over how to handle the migrant crisis.

New York City, which has been overwhelmed by more than 200,000 migrant arrivals since 2022, has been providing settlement options to migrants since that time. Last year, it opened a reticketing center to offer one-way plane tickets to migrants.

Fox News confirms that 4,500 migrants have been sent to Texas using bus or plane tickets bought by the city. The figure was first reported by Bloomberg News.
 
According to Mayor Eric Adams’ office, the top five destinations for migrants leaving the Big Apple are Texas, Illinois, Florida, New York State and Colorado.

In total, they have issued more than 4,700 tickets and the majority, roughly 4,500, have gone to Texas. It was not clear how many of those migrants had come from buses sent to NYC from Texas.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

If you are going to send them somewhere, how about their countries of origin.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Send caravans of illegal migrants to the town where Mayorkas lives.

Doesn't Texas Law allow them to be detained and deported?

But these were the people who'd welcome them with open arms...
and subsidize them---

Which proves that you get more of what you subsidize.
So 'tolerant', until the Thatcher Prophesy runs its course. (The problem with Socialism is that sooner or later you run out of other people's money)
Almost as much fun as Martha's Vineyard.

Texas damnsure isn't it.

First stop is Pennsylvania so that they can all vote.  Second stop, Georgia, so that they can all vote.  Third stop, Arizona, so that they can all vote.  It will be awhile before they get to Texas.
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

So I imagine to facilitate recrossing the border to visit relatives in Mexico, a lot of illegals get to fly back to Texas on taxpayer's dime.
