New York City Mayor Eric Adams slammed Texas Gov. Greg Abbott for sending buses of asylum seekers.
RELATED: Migrant families share their experiences at the U.S.-Mexico border
Texas Governor Greg Abbott is firing back at New York City Mayor Eric Adams after he threatened to send bus loads of New Yorkers to Texas to campaign against Abbott’s re-election bid. “I kind of feel like Clint Eastwood. Go ahead, Mayor. Make my day,” Abbott publicly declared Wednesday.
The dueling politicians have gone back and forth since the Lone Star State began busing migrants from the Texas-Mexico border to the Big Apple on Aug. 5. Since late last week, at least 160 migrants have stepped off buses in New York City, Shaina Coronel, a spokesperson for Manuel Castro, the Commissioner for the Mayor’s Office of Immigrant Affairs told USA TODAY Thursday.
Abbott’s comments came after Adams’ said he was considering taking a busload of New Yorkers to Texas “and do some good, old-fashioned door-knocking” against the Texas governor. On Thursday morning Abbott tweeted Texas was taking “unprecedented action to stop the influx of illegal immigrants crossing the border.”

If your Gov keep doing Like this just waitting another million of migrant will come to your border…
Sangria del diablo.
Well you want asylum seekers then take them in d.c. and in ny. And help new Mexico and texas and arizona
Lies! What do you mean even if they have a sponsor they got no way of contacting them? The government gave migrants cell phones for free. Unless you are saying Mexicans and other migrants don't know how to use a phone all of the sudden. Wtf. They are not tacos either.
WELCOME 800 million Africans refugees in Mexico. And. Oscar el blue.
Refugees from China Iran Afghanistan Pakistan India Iraq. Africa. They need welfare free food housing free social security welfare free housing. America. 800 millions of these wonderful people IN AMERICANS AND NEED HELP
Happy you want them. It’s time other states take they FAIR SHARE OF THIS BURDEN.
You welcome , Stop complaining for standing for what you vote for and represent democrats, it's time to share the responsibility you dump on other states .
Democrats, you all wanted to virtue signal by proclaiming to be sanctuary cities, so own it.
Hochul and Schumer drove New York into the ash bin of history Crime is out of control. Thousands of people flee New York everyday. Due to crime taxes and unsafe living New York is so bad only people bus from texas are staying. They are not aware of the crime problem and they have not been a victim of crime yet. Vote them out
The governor should send at least a thousand a day there and also to Joe Biden's Hometown and Nancy Pelosi's neighborhood.
Best to send ALL ILLEGALS to Democrap Sanctuary Cities and Washington DC
If they only worked that hard for the American citizens
Why is NY mad, now those refugees can vote and pay taxes on their state…..😂
Gov Abbott is not who we need. Why send people to a state where rent is averaging $5000? Let people be free.
Send double the amount of buses
Abbott is disgusting and cruel. I hope he is charged with endangering human lives.
Comon DC, Welcome the migrants with open Arms to your sanctuary cities… don’t break your promise… stop whining and open your homes
Not sending enough buses
Send them to Delaware !
ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS HAVE NO RIGHT TO BE IN AMERICA – WHEN AMERICAN CITIZENS ARE BEING PRICED OUT OF OUR HOMES!
🙂
Keep sending them, Governor Abbott. 👍
Where are those folks saying the walls are racist now ???
Walls are more racist when you are a Democrat and live further away from the southern border.
Giving illegal immigrants a free bus ticket to a sanctuary city…. That’s so inhumane. Here’s another idea, send them to the actual countries they were supposed to stop in to seek asylum.
I'm so sick of those two mayors whining about a few hundred people being sent to their cities. How would they, as governors, handle over 200,000 PER MONTH arriving? They're just showing how inept they are at handling their jobs.
Send more Abbott. It's a sanctuary city. Government is placing them in Michigan like crazy. Kicking out USA citizens to give them a place to stay. Do we have a school that speaks their language nope…. English yes. Crazy 🤣 never hear old Joe Biden complaining
This is what happens when you let the world in unchecked.
June 2022. First Polio Case in U.S. Since 2013 Detected in New York State
August 2022. Polio virus is found in New York City wastewater. It has to be type 1 polio and that's the bad one.
get a taser and good luck!
Delaware is a nice destination
Illegitimate Dementia Biden has used these Illegals as "Political Pawns" with his Illegal Open Borders Policy…breaking all Immigration laws of the USA! NYC is a PROCLAIMED SANCTUARY CITY. This is what you voted for!
As a lifelong New Yorker…I agree with the Texas Gov sending all of these illegals, that cross the border to Texas, to Sanctuary Cities.
Now…all of a sudden it's called a CRISIS! Just look at what the people in the Border States have had to endure because of Illegitimate Dementia Biden and the "Lock-Step" Democrat/Progressives and the ILLEGAL FAILED POLICY of OPEN BORDERS with no vetting of those arriving!
Recently someone asked me… Why are there so many Pregnant Female Illegals making the long dangerous, treacherous Journey to America?
I explained to her that these pregnant women are carrying what is called… "Anchor Babies". The Liberals, Democrats/Progressives, Communists/Socialists educate and instruct these illegals in their home country about winning this "LOTTERY JACKPOT" in the USA before they leave on their journey to the USA.
Pregnant Illegals drop/give birth to their newborns in the USA, the Newborn was born on US SOIL…the newborn has automatically been DECLARED a US citizen, and the whole family uses this excuse to stay in the USA. These illegals then call back to their home country for others to come… to live and multiply at USA taxpayer expense.
This DELINQUENT DEMOCRAT PRACTICE then creates another generation of FREE entitlements of welfare, section 8 housing, food stamps, overburdened education systems, and free health care for life…all at the expense of the taxpaying citizens of the USA.
How many illegal immigrants is the mayor of New York willing to greet? Mabey Joe Biden could be the greater in Washington D.C. The border problem is so out of control because of this presidential administration.
I have a solution, keep them in Mexico.
It's inhumane to bus people for free to a sanctuary city if they choose to go?
Thank you Mayor Bowser and Mayor Adams for helping all the ILLEGAL immigrants.
I want to appreciate dr Godfatherspellcaster on YouTube for bringing back my Ex lover back home
STEP UP SANCTUARY CITIES!!
