Millions of illegal migrants are crossing the border claiming asylum, and are either released directly into the United States, or bused/flown to other, typically Republican, states around the country. Border communities in those red states cannot cope, exacerbated by the fact that the Democratic administration refuses to admit that there's a crisis at all, so additional crisis funding is not incoming. Republican governors are responding to the issue by moving illegal migrants from red states to bluer pastures. They do this knowing that blue states cannot handle the influx any better than they can, and they want to make the issue salient to blue states the same way it is with red.

Those border states already get extra funding for that reason.
Also the ones flown by de santis were not illegals.

I am sorry, asylum seekers are American citizens?

No by they have rights given to them by the constitution.

So does that fact change anything about this story? If you ask me it gives even more reason to supply them with transportation to sanctuary areas that have outwardly expressed their intention to help asylum seekers.

I don’t understand why you guys even bring this up. It made democrat immigration policy implode in on itself and still today, here you guys are trying to make Republican governors the bad guy.

Because those rights gets denied by just putting them in jail etc. I think the borders need tighter restrictions 1.. punish the people that give them jobs until they stop. WAY more effective than a bus ride, or spending billions on a shit wall.

Who put them in jail?

Wasn't there like a few months of news coverage about the overcrowding in the detention facilities in some of those border areas? The whole kids in cages thing

Maybe they just don't want to jam thousands of people in a small fenced in area with covid still going around? Or they might feel the issue will get more attention if the politicians fighting any measures they try to take have to deal with problem themselves.
