Sheer stupidity.
They act as if Texas and NY are separate autonomous nations.
Whether migrants are bussed to NY or some other blue state not on the border, they're still on American soil and you don't need a passport to travel from State to State.
Sending them into the interior of the country is sheer grandstanding and brainlessness.
Abbot is a fukking idiot.
If you think about it, every state has its duties and responsibilities.
Texas and Arizona have to manage illegal border crossings, because that's their duty as border states. Trying to make it every other states problem is madness.
