But when Trump was doing it, it was no big deal. So what changed? It's the same exact thing, only a different president from a different party.
The mods are gonna want to see this as an immigration issue. But I'm posting it because it's a "Trump is as left leaning as Biden thing."
I simply don't get why Trump supporters get all fired up over something Biden does, when Trump did the same exact thing. And it's not just about flying migrants all over the place. It's spending, debt ceiling increases, funding Ukraine and a whole slew of other issues that they BOTH are guilty of. On almost every issue that Trump supporters bash Biden for doing, there's an instance of Trump doing the same exact thing.
The United States is for the first time sending illegal border-crossers to other cities for processing, transporting more than 3,000 each week from southern Texas and Arizona to other locations as the government struggles to deal with surging numbers of nearly 100,000 migrants a month crossing the southern border.
The Trump administration is flying migrants to San Diego and Del Rio, Texas, and busing them to El Centro, Calif., and Laredo, Texas, according to a U.S. Customs and Border Protection official familiar with the plan. There, they are being processed — which includes photographs, health screenings, fingerprints and background checks — before they are often released and told to return for a court hearing at a later date.
It is the first time in history the U.S. has transported immigrants to other localities because federal officials can’t process them in time at their original point of entry, the official said. The government is required by law to process these border-crossers within 72 hours.
