(Headline USA) A Texas congressman blasted President Joe Biden for shipping “busloads” of illegal immigrants into his district, arguing that the crisis has become unsustainable.
Rep. August Pfluger, R-Texas, said the Department of Homeland Security has started shipping hundreds of migrants into San Angelo, which is located inside his district. He asked why migrants are being placed in small communities with limited resources rather than self-proclaimed sanctuary cities that refuse to enforce federal immigration laws.
“The response we’ve gotten from some Border Patrol agencies is that the system is completely overwhelmed, every aspect of it from the official system through the NGOs, that they’re completely overwhelmed,” Pfluger told Fox News.
“We know that there are more caravans, so-called caravans on the way. And it’s just a continuing crisis and no community deserves to have this happen.”
DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas is also to blame, Pfluger argued, for putting “Border Patrol in a terrible position.”
“What are these busses? What are these airplanes? What are they doing? When they get there to my community, if they were to get there, where are they going to go? The crime rates, the drugs, the trafficking, it’s just completely unacceptable,” he said.
As the border crisis worsens, the Biden administration has stepped up its secretive transportation of illegal aliens into areas like Pfluger’s district. Videos obtained by Republican gubernatorial candidate Rob Astorino showed two flights from El Paso, Texas, carrying 100-150 illegal immigrants landing in New York.
The migrants then leave the planes and board chartered buses to head into the American interior.
“It’s almost like they were caught and now they don’t even care,” Astorino said.
“They were caught and they are saying, good luck coming after us’, and they give a big middle finger to every resident who has a right to know. We have a right to know who is coming into our backyard, how and who is paying the bills for this.”
