Fmr. Mayor Lightfoot Praises Strong Biden on the Border, Blames Gov. Abbott and Trump for Chicago Migrant Crisis

EXCERPT:

LIGHTFOOT: "Well, to be clear, they‘re not just showing up here. They‘re being bused by Greg Abbott from the border, who‘s telling them, 'You can‘t stay here, we don‘t want you, and your only ticket out is to get on a bus to go to Chicago, to D.C., to New York.' So this is a forced migration without any regard, frankly, for their personal health, safety, or welfare. But I think President Biden really addressed that last night in his speech. The number of border droppings since he was compelled to take unilateral executive action has decreases precipitously. And frankly, the thing I feared was that Abbott was going to send even more buses to Chicago — you know, knock on plexiglas — "
PHILLIP: "This week."
LIGHTFOOT: "This week. Hasn‘t materialized. And I think, in part, it‘s because of the necessary and tough action that Joe Biden took through executive order."
