llinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker is urging Texas Gov. Greg Abbott to stop sending migrants to Chicago due to incoming winter storms, an appeal that drew pushback from the Lone Star State. "While action is pending at the federal level, I plead with you for mercy for the thousands of people who are powerless to speak for themselves," Pritzker said in a letter, according to the Chicago Sun-Times. "Please, while winter is threatening vulnerable people’s lives, suspend your transports and do not send more people to our state."

Gotta love it. Head of sanctuary city state governor pleads for mercy. Like a junkie asking for money but saying it's the last time.

Pritzker, call Brandon. He's the reason for the overwhelming numbers of illegal aliens.

Illegals are still crossing the Texas border in the thousands. Texas has cold weather forecast as well. Send them to Chicago.

Pritzkie, why don't you take your issue over to biden the cheater. Besides, didn't you know that the whole reason for the out-of-control border is to let in as many future dim voters as possible and dilute the white gene pool so that the pubbies can't even win a future election for dog catcher?

Sounds like the like minded democrats from all levels (state and federal) need to gather and then march over to the WH and tell Mrs. FJB that they need a word with the Big Guy. This is his mess and he needs to get it cleaned up. He needs to be called out loudly and publicially that we will no longer accept his incompetence.

Double up the bus schedule. You have them on the ropes, Gov. Abbott. NO mercy at all.
They are showing the USA no mercy at all about this invasion of illegal, criminal aliens.

Don't forget also that when American's were losing jobs for not getting the shot, the border was wide open. The illegals were being sent all over USA with no testing, no isolation and no shot. This regime is dangerous, treasonous and just plain corrupt.

Biden and the leftist and socialist Democrats have enough votes “in the bag” in the so-called “sanctuary cities” and so they don’t need anymore illegal aliens (migrants) in those mostly all leftist and socialist Democrat cities and States, so the Biden and leftist and socialist game-plan is to flood the current Republican States, especially Texas, with unlimited numbers of illegal aliens, especially poor and uneducated Third World origin illegal aliens who fit within the minority group categories recognized by Democrat identity politics, believing that they, the leftist and socialist Democrats, with the help of cheap foreign labor enamored wimpy Republicans and RINOS, will be able to legalize the growing illegal alien population by way of a series of Democrat designed “path to citizenship” amnesties and other legalization programs, grant them U.S. citizenship, US voting rights, and transform the vast majority of them, tens of millions, into future leftist and socialist Democrat supporters and voters, thus keeping the leftist and socialist Democrats in permanent control of both the Congress and the White House. In Texas the Biden and the leftist and socialist Democrat agenda is to flood the State with illegal aliens and capture Texas’s 58+ electoral votes thus making it impossible for the wimpy Republicans to ever win future Presidential elections. The Governor of Texas knows that and is why he is transporting as many illegal aliens as possible out of Texas to the leftist and socialist Democrat run “sanctuary cities”. Another part of the Biden and leftist and socialist Democrat grand plan involves the next U.S. Census,as when that census comes around the incoming illegal aliens will be counted in that census, causing the redistricting a good number of congressional districts into the places that they are resettling, with the greatly increased population numbers, consisting of illegal aliens, it is just common sense that a good number of those congressional seats will be moved into those areas that will be mostly all “sanctuary cities” and areas politically controlled by the leftist and socialist Democrats making it a sure thing that incumbent Republican representatives will be ousted from those seats, as it will be much more easier for leftist and socialist Democrat candidates to win those redistricted congressional seats giving the leftist and socialist Democrats permanent control of the House of Representatives. Get the picture?

Did I miss something? And they're not "powerless to speak for themselves" - they WANT to go to the sanctuary city of Chicago, where they'll be welcomed and feted.

Hey, Pritzie, you're the one with the big welcome sign for illegal immigrants; but you want Texas to cover that offer. Either beg Lopez Obrador to stop the flow through Mexico, or petition FJB to close the border to stop tempting the illegal aliens to journey to the border until conditions are less inclement. Or run your own state.

Hey, put on your Big Boy Pants (I assume they're quite large) and "deal with it"!! In any case, you're asking for mercy from the wrong person. Vent your ire on the one who purposefully caused this debacle ~ most likely due to instructions he received from Mr. O.

It’s clear that the leftist and socialist Democrats (Mayors) who supposedly run the so-called “sanctuary cities” are pleased as punch to welcome as many illegal aliens as possible, who they consider to be potential leftist and socialist Democrat supporters and voters, for resettlement in their cities, their problem with all that is that they want the Federal Government to pay for all that. No doubt Biden would send those Mayors unlimited billions of taxpayers dollars, less ten percent, if he could find a way to get the wimpy Republicans who currently control the House of Representatives to appropriate unlimited billions of dollars to keep the leftist and socialist Democrat “sanctuary city” Mayors, and their activists and operatives afloat who are reportedly already registering the incoming mass of illegal aliens to vote in future U.S. elections.

Did Pritzker show any mercy to migrants dying in the August heat in the desert? Did he give a second thought to the young women who were trafficked by the cartels and raped before they crossed the border? No? Oh, that's right! I think I recall his kinfolk being linked with Jeffrey Epstein. Did he have any remorse about the kids drowning in the Rio Grande? No? That's because his kinfolk are openly advocating to kill innocent children by abortion. He is so hard hearted he can't work up the slightest feelings that would steer his conscious to mercy.

"Powerless to speak for themselves." They weren't powerless when they left their home country, made the journey to northern Mexico and broke US law when they crossed the river and accepted the welcome package that Joe Biden and Mayorkas packed for them so they could begin their "better life" at the expense of US taxpayers. Enjoy the snow, amigos.
