Migrant buses dropped off by Texas close to VP Harris´ house

Amid partisan battles over the Joe Biden administration’s immigration policies, Republican Texas Gov. Greg Abbott and from Arizona Doug Ducey adopted the strategy of sending migrants on buses to cities with Democratic mayors.

Abbott said on Twitter that “We´re sending migrants to your backyard to ask the Biden Administration to do its job and secure the southern border.”

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis also joined such an initiative, devised by former President Donald Trump, who sent two planes carrying migrants to Martha’s Vineyard in Massachusetts on Wednesday.
