I wish we’d had this new information from the NEW YORK POST in time for yesterday's update on the flood of COVID-infected “noncitizens” –- illegals –- at the Texas border. (That story: the DOJ sued and obtained a temporary injunction against Texas Gov. Greg Abbott’s order that curbed the federal government’s transportation of migrants from the border into Texas and beyond.) But here it is.

https://nypost.com/2021/08/04/thousands-of-covid-positive-migrants-pass-through-texas-border/

Nearly 7,000 immigrants who tested positive for COVID-19 --- out of the ones who WERE tested --- have passed through McAllen, Texas, including more than 1,500 in just the past seven days.

It wasn’t a big announcement, just one that was folded into a statement from the City of McAllen, population 140,000, announcing the construction of emergency shelters to help them cope with the overwhelming numbers of immigrants. On Monday, the buses Gov. Abbott is trying to stop were running constantly, dropping off passengers at a downtown Catholic charity every 30 minutes throughout the day. McAllen has declared a state of disaster.

According to this story, July marked the highest number of illegal immigrants apprehended at the US-Mexico border in more than 20 years.

On Wednesday afternoon, a crash occurred about 50 miles north of McAllen on a remote Texas highway when a van carrying 25 people (!) --- but designed to carry no more than 15 --- turned over on a curve, killing 11 people and injuring at least a dozen others.

Migrants continue to pour in, as Gov. Abbot has been ordered not to interfere, at least for now. After the temporary halt to his order, a spokesperson for his office said, “The governor’s Executive Order attempts to prevent the Biden administration from spreading COVID-19 into Texas and protect the health and safety of Texans.” The next hearing is scheduled for August 13.

Abbott’s spokesperson also said this: “The Biden administration has knowingly --- and willingly --- released COVID-19 positive migrants into Texas communities, risking the potential exposure and infection of Texas residents.”

And this brings us to what Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis said on Wednesday to President Biden, which is absolutely what needed to be said. Watch and learn; this is EXACTLY the way all Republicans need to fight back against the politics-driven idiocy being inflicted on our country right now by those in power. It makes no sense to talk about lockdowns when you’re allowing COVID-infected “noncitizens” to stream into the country as Biden is.

https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/florida-governor-desantis-biden-covid-restrictions

Biden had admonished Govs. DeSantis and Abbott for not doing “the right thing” to fight COVID. “Look, we need leadership from everyone,” he said. “If some governors aren’t willing to do the right thing to beat this pandemic, they should allow businesses and universities who want to do the right thing to be able to do it.” Rational people are more at risk from busting a gut laughing at lines like this from Biden than they are from the coronavirus. I wonder how many infected people crossed into America at our southern border while Biden was giving his little speech.

DeSantis’ stand-up-and-cheer response to President Biden: “Why don’t you do your job? Why don’t you get this border secure? And until you do that, I don’t want to hear a blip about COVID from you, thank you.”

DeSantis also appeared briefly on THE INGRAHAM ANGLE with Laura Ingraham Wednesday to talk about personal decisions regarding COVID, particularly regarding parents on issues that affect their kids, such as mask-wearing in school. He pointed out that last year, school districts in Florida that didn’t institute compulsory mask-wearing had lower rates of infection than those that did.

    Our citizens, who attended the January rally, have been hunted down, terrorized and jailed for months. What is different from this than the way people are treated in communist Cuba and China. This should be talked about daily, hourly on TV.

    What a disaster - perhaps deliberate because Democrats want to punish Texas for remaining a rebellious Red State? Not a smart nor a clever way to introduce Blue political ideology into Texas's vigorous and brave culture .
    I am old but I remember the Summer migration of Mexican laborers into Texas. Walking across the border was never a problem. We used to cross the border for wonderful meals and back home that evening. Many Mexicans worked in the states and lived in Mexico.
    Mexicans still come to Texas, get their citizenship and have houses on both sides of the border. Biden's incompetence in his handling the current immigration laws is ruinous . Not to mention in addition the spread of COVID to the citizens of the Texas Valley. Sad and what a waste.

    The president's actions are criminal, and impeachable. Will he be impeached when/if Republicans gain control of House and Senate? Or will more voter fraud deprive them of this?

    Every state governor should bring a lawsuit against biden and DOJ for releasing infected immigrants in their states!!

    It is time and past time to defy the governerment. DeSantis is right. They other governors should stand up and say the same. Demand that ALL federal laws be upheld and until they are, we can pick and chose the ones we want to follow. With hold Federal tax money in the states to pay our own bills and put these people on buses into the Dem states.The hang with the judges who are stopping Gov Abbot from protecting his citizens. My grandchildren live in TX. If we defy their "rules" what are they going to do. Cry and beg like that idiots on the fake January 6 committee???? On another subject, fire all union teachers, start state funds and hire "real" teachers who want to teach not play politics. I was part of the education system for 20 years. There are "real" teachers who love the children and want the best for them. This union does not.

    "7,000 border-crossers test positive for Covid in McAllen, TX" Not so hard to figure out why there is an "uptick" in Covid cases in Texas.

    I rarely watch our local news. But, the local ABC affiliate, KRGV-TV couldn’t help itself in misinforming us about the illegal alien and increase in virus cases here in the Rio Grande Valley. They gave us a double-whammy when they blamed the increase on everything and everyone except the thousands of illegal aliens. If that wasn’t enough, a field reporter, reporting from a Brownsville bus station actually said that local taxpayers would not have to worry about the cost of transporting and housing illegal aliens because “it is being paid for by FEMA and the federal government.”
    Don’t believe me? See it for yourself at the 6:00 p.m. broadcast on Wednesday, Aug. 4th.

    Why can’t we stop these illegals and just send them back where they came from? The left is destroying America they must be stopped! TRUMP WON
