The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

'and the democrats are crying uncle. Now that sanctimonious blue 'sanctuary' states and cities are seeing 1/1000th of what place like El Paso see, they're crying uncle and saying No mas.

Illinois governor J.B. Pritzker is the latest:

nbcnews.com - Illinois gov jb pritzker biden address migrant crisis letter

CHICAGO ' Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker on Monday fired off a letter to President Joe Biden about an 'untenable' migrant crisis in the state, calling for an overhaul to the system and blasting the White House for a 'lack of intervention and coordination at the border.'

Pritzker, a Democrat, said the state's resources were beyond strained after Texas officials bused more than 15,000 migrants to Illinois in the past year.

'Unfortunately, the welcome and aid Illinois has been providing to these asylum seekers has not been matched with support by the federal government,' Pritzker wrote. 'Most critically, the federal government's lack of intervention and coordination at the border has created an untenable situation for Illinois.'


15,000 is nothing compared to what border states are getting.
The media and the administration have been boxed into a corner with their constant stream of gaslighting about our wide-open southern border being 'secure'. Now pompous blue state governors like Pritzker and Hochul are having to beg for help as their states are buckling under the weight of just a few migrants.

The GOP needs to ,are this and public safety the only 2 issues on the ballot and they'll win everywhere.
