TX guv credited for winning political 'chess match' in busing policy

The governor of Texas is being applauded by an immigration think tank after he angered and frustrated Democrat leaders who are seething over illegal aliens being dropped off in their blue cities.

Gov. Greg Abbott has found a way to get illegals bused from Texas to New York City, where Mayor Eric Adams ordered new rules to stop the flow of buses to the Big Apple. After the mayor limited drop-off times and demanded a 32-hour notice, the buses are dropping off illegal aliens at a train station in neighboring New Jersey. They then travel to the city. 

Art Arthur, resident fellow in Law and Policy at the Center for Immigration Studies, tells AFN a political “chess match” has been happening which the Texas governor has been winning much to the frustration of Mayor Adams and other Democrat mayors.

“They can either complain about what the administration is doing, which is what they should be doing, or they can criticize the Republican governor of Texas,” he says.

A spokesman for Mayor Adams accused Abbott of treating asylum seekers "like political pawns" and dropping off families in surrounding areas "in the cold, dark of night with train tickets to travel to New York City."

“The real problem lies with the White House,” counters Arthur, “and that really is where Mayor Adams should be directing his ire."
