Gov. Greg Abbott (R-Texas) has defended busing more illegal immigrants to Washington, D.C., on Christmas Eve after the White House issued a rebuke.

Texas sent three busloads of illegal aliens to Vice President Kamala Harris’ residence on Christmas Eve when temperatures were in the teens, prompting the White House on Sunday to declare it a “cruel, dangerous, and shameful stunt.”

Abbott redirected the blame for what he called an “untenable crisis” to President Joe Biden’s “open border policies.”

Renae Eze, Abbott’s spokesperson, said the illegal aliens signed voluntary consent waivers provided in multiple languages upon boarding, agreeing to the destination.

“The White House is full of a bunch of hypocrites, led by the Hypocrite-in-Chief who has been flying planeloads of migrants across the country and oftentimes in the cover of night,” Eze said in a statement.

The federal government is processing and “dumping” illegal aliens in Texas border towns like El Paso, which recently declared a state of emergency, Eze said.

“Instead of their hypocritical complaints about Texas providing much-needed relief to our overrun and overwhelmed border communities, President Biden and Border Czar Harris need to step up and do their jobs to secure the border-something they continue failing to do,” Eze added.

Texas has now sent over 15,900 illegal immigrants to predominantly Democrat-run so-called sanctuary cities in an effort to deal with an influx of illegal aliens at the southern border.

“We’re providing relief to local communities overwhelmed by President Biden’s open border policies,” Abbott said.-- excerpt, rest at link above --
