Texas Sends First Buses of Illegal Aliens to Chicago

Via Ed Driscoll at Instapundit, Baller move, brah.

Two buses carrying migrants from Texas arrived in Chicago on Wednesday night.

The buses arrived at Chicago's Union Station at around 7:30 p.m., carrying migrants who crossed the southern border illegally.

An estimated 80 to 100 people were on the buses, including 20 to 30 small children. Many of the migrants said they were from Venezuela.

Chicago is the latest city where migrants have been bused to from Texas, following New York City and Washington, D.C., all of which have Democrat mayors.

Republican Texas Gov. Greg Abbott said in a statement that he looks forward to seeing Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot welcome the migrants since Chicago is a sanctuary city.

"President Biden's inaction at our southern border continues putting the lives of Texans--and Americans--at risk and is overwhelming our communities," Abbott said. "To continue providing much-needed relief to our small, overrun border towns, Chicago will join fellow sanctuary cities Washington, D.C. and New York City as an additional drop-off location. Mayor Lightfoot loves to tout the responsibility of her city to welcome all regardless of legal status, and I look forward to seeing this responsibility in action as these migrants receive resources from a sanctuary city with the capacity to serve them."

Se mouvio. Google translate tells me that's Spanish for "It moved," but I think it should be es mouvio. I should ask my Latinx friend Beto O'Rouke.

How did Groot's ugly gam-gam respond? By welcoming the illegals into her self-declared sanctuary city?

No, of course not. She spit that it was "racist" to send illegal aliens to her sanctuary city for illegal aliens.

Chicago's progressive mayor insists she welcomes being the latest Democratic destination for busloads of border crossers, as she accused Texas Gov. Greg Abbott of being "racist" and the Trump administration of "human cruelty."

Mayor Lori Lightfoot made the heated remarks as the first 75 migrants arrived on two buses from the Lone Star State late Wednesday.

But the lefty lawmaker failed to mention President Biden's immigration policies largely blamed for the surge at the southern border.

BTW, 8s it "buses" or "busses"? Both look equally wrong to me, although the latter follows the actual rule. I thought the rule was that you have to double the -s to make it plain that the following -e does not make the u a long u.

Merriam-Webster:

The plural of the noun bus is buses. You might see the plural busses, but that form is so rare that it seems like an error to many people. You might also see the verbs bussed and bussing, both of which are rare and also come across as an error to many people. The plural of bus is buses.

Okay, I guess.
