"...to ensure everyone who arrives in Chicago is greeted and treated with dignity and respect." Bet those homeless veterans who fought to protect this country could use some of that.

The safest place for those immigrants - was on that bus.

Governor Abbott, please start routing busses to Martha's Vineyard where the politically outspoken wealthy are.

0:36 *"Lots of single mothers and many small children"*
Next frame shows literally an entire line of working-age men boarding the bus 🙄

We need to stop people coming over the border and start helping the veterans. Veterans are us citizens they should be helped first!

They said the group had many women and children, while showing a group of only men trying to get on the bus. Then transitioned to two women with children, surrounded in a bus with men. Looks to me like it's at least 75% men in that group, and likely closer to 90%. Also did they assume their genders?

The 'migrants' will eat better, sleep better, and be safer than the poorest Chicago citizens.

It is very nice of Texas to send some cultural enrichment on to Mayor Beetlejuice's Chicago.

[candymr]

The guy said he wanted shelter, place to stay....lol. In other words, he wants welfare

[tonalharmony]

I love it. Drop them off in Mayor Lightfoot's backyard!

[stephenmorring]

Lori Lightfoot's office claimed this Texas practice of distributing illegal immigrants "racist". Does Lori Lightfoot think that Venezuelan is a race? Does she think that all the people crossing the southern border are one homogenous race? If Lori Lightfoot thinks that everyone south of the border are a "race", then maybe she's the one with strange racial hang-ups.

[unsilent]

You people are freaking out over a few dozen illegals? Here, in Texas, we are getting "Tens of Thousands" EVERY DAMN

[jojolopez]

If they wanted to get out of their country they should have applied and gone through the process. Took my mother hard work and determination to become a legal citizen.

[MrBearcatjew]

"We dont want charity just a place to stay" THATS THE BIGGEST CHARITY EVER!

[craigforest]

Wow, Chicago will continue to welcome them, awesome start sending 10, 000 a day!

[Sarah-lbcs]

A place to stay???? Go back home and stay there! We can’t even take care of the legal citizens in this country. What a complete f’ing joke! 🤬

Their native country is probably safer!

[bonniekesic]

We need to stop people from coming in our country right now. We have a homeless problem we need to fix
