The White Home Press Secretary mentioned:
Republican governors interfering within the course of and utilizing migrants as political props is shameful, reckless, and simply plain improper.
….
The truth that Fox Information and never the Division of Homeland Safety, the town, or native NGOs had been alerted a few plan to go away migrants, together with kids, on the aspect of a busy DC avenue makes clear that that is only a merciless, premeditated political stunt.
That is what they’re doing.
And a pair extra issues, the migrants, together with kids, who arrived in Martha’s Winery had been misled about the place they had been being taken and what can be offered once they arrived can also be deeply alarming. The youngsters that Governor Abbot deserted in Martha’s Winery, the youngsters that Governor DeSantis deserted as properly deserve higher, and so they deserve higher.
The Press Secretary doesn’t communicate for the Division of Justice, so she will’t say that what DeSantis and Abbott are doing is unlawful. The DOJ will make that dedication.
Each DeSantis and Abbott have White Home ambitions, and they’re each up for reelection in November.
Trump taught his MAGA celebration that cruelty towards migrants and youngsters is politically useful with Republican voters. The problem is that the voters is far bigger than the Republican Celebration. Abbott and DeSantis could get away with these stunts of their respective states, however they are going to pay the worth nationally as a result of the opposite lesson they need to have realized from Trump is cruelty to migrants and youngsters isn’t a basic election-winning technique.
