I'm really not kidding at this point that Texas seceding would benefit the country. Abbott has declared quiet war on other states. Getting rid of Elon in the deal would be a bonus.

To Avoid New York Rules, Hundreds of Migrants Dropped Off in New Jersey https://www.nytimes.com/2024/01/01/nyregion/ny-nj-migrants-buses.html

Huh.
I might regret saying this. And I definitely do not like Abbott at all, some of the things he does are so hateful. But what the heck, here goes.
It really sounds like Texas has a problem with migrants and nobody wants to help them.
Maybe we could focus on helping both the migrants themselves and also helping Texas deal with the influx?
Texas has a self created problem exacerbated by Republicans voting down both asylum funding, border funding, and immigration reform.
They have literally voted against what you suggest.
Also, 350 people isn't an invasion, it average attendance at a HS soccer match. They are just throwing people on buses and sending them random places for media attention and money.
@Cosmichomicide I actually was blocked from reading the article you posted, so I didn't see the numbers. I'm sure the amount of migrants Texas receives is larger than that overall.
For reference, this is the article I read, and it seems this has been happening for at least two years: https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/us/nj-mayor-says-buses-of-migrants-bound-for-ny-are-being-dropped-off-at-nj-train-stations/ar-AA1mjHNo
It was a gift article, can't imagine why you were blocked.
@Cosmichomicide It gave me a message that said I had to create an account to read it, which I didn't want to do.
Ah, was worried you were actually blocked. You should be able to skip the free account to read, but I don't actually know, since I have a subscription.
