      This is just a repeat of the “Reverse Freedom Rides,” and nothing happened then either. You really expect a sitting governor to be convicted of interstate human trafficking and/or child trafficking? The Catholic Church trafficked hundreds of thousands of children and didn’t even get a slap on the wrist!

    Time to collect the abortion bounty from Texas by claiming these migrants were seeking an abortion in California. Have everyone sue governor Abbott for this.

    On that note I can recommend this podcast episode of Déjà News:

    As conservative governors try to score political points by depositing busloads and planeloads of migrants in liberal cities, it can seem like an unprecedented exercise in cruelty. But it’s a page ripped from an earlier playbook in U.S. politics, one that was forgotten for decades for a very good reason. Rachel Maddow and Isaac-Davy Aronson revisit the racist Reverse Freedom Rides of the 1960s.

    History goes in circles…
