I have to say, I think shipping illegal immigrants to sanctuary cities was brilliant. It has illuminated the difference of talking and doing. It was only when Texas started the policy did the “sanctuary cities “ recognize the problems it created. No State or Country can house, feed and provide free healthcare for anyone who sneaks their way in.

I think the move was politically very clever but I don’t think it advanced any sort of solution. If anything, those illegal migrants just disappeared further into the interior. I also would argue that Texas’s implementation of an actual solution to the leaky border has done more to elicit a response from the current administration (who has the power to fix the crisis) than the passive aggression of shipping the migrants elsewhere.

However, was it funny? Yes.
