As you know, Democrats like California Gov. Gavin Newsom (and possibly Sen. Brian Schatz) would like to see the Justice Department consider kidnapping charges against Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and Texas Gov. Greg Abbott for the alleged crimes of sending illegal immigrants to northern “sanctuary cities.” The allegation is that putting migrants on busses or planes and shipping them elsewhere amounts to human trafficking and/or kidnapping.
However, notice that the Dems don’t hyperventilate about kidnapping and human trafficking when it’s being done by other Democrats. Fox News’ Bill Melugin has pointed out another reality that for some reason isn’t making the Dems flip out because Republicans aren’t behind it:
NEW: The Democrat-led city of El Paso, TX tells @FoxNews they have transported 2,365 migrants on 51 buses to New York City since August 23rd.
7 more buses heading to NYC left El Paso yesterday.
The city signed a contract worth up to $2 million w/ bus company to continue this.

And of course THAT will be different when the lib spin machine does its thing.
The city of NYC signed the contract or the city of El Paso?

The “what would Jesus do” lefties are nowhere to be found on that one.

Not that this whole fiasco is entirely political or anything (cue eye roll).
