After relaxing state Covid restrictions this week, Abbott alleged, without evidence, that migrants coming into Texas are exposing the state's residents to the coronavirus. "The Biden administration has been releasing immigrants in south Texas that have been exposing Texans to Covid," Abbott, a Republican, said in a CNBC interview Thursday.
But Mexico stopped accepting some families from being returned. That change, combined with social distancing in US detention centers, has created a lack of space for migrants, forcing Customs and Border Protection officials to release families into the US.The agency said in a statement that personnel check for Covid-19 symptoms and"consult with onsite medical personnel, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention , or local health systems as appropriate.
Welcome to America New Democratic voter its the dream have 10 kids go on the system have rest America pay for them for life housing / food .. its the American dream ... this is all from a Bill Maher Democratic
Of course he'd refuse anything that would factcheck him... because he's spitting false information. He recinded the distancing and mask restrictions just before college Springbreak ... 18-20 yr. olds are going to be the spreaders NOT immigrants
You need to find the evidence instead of guessing
At what point does 'lying sack of shit' become actionable? Seems like never.
No lying liberal Communist CNN! Abbott is right! CNN LIES!
Why should the American taxpayer pay for all this testing of illegal immigrants. They should never have been let in this way never mind the pandemic. This is complete bullshit that is being forced upon us by joe Biden.
My grandma would’ve said “Lawd Have Mercy on Him” I say fuck him, since he’s not worthy of a Mercy card.
Of course , what an idiotic policy . The USA is offering free vaccinations to illegal immigrants ? Lol there’s already a crisis at the border they can’t handle . Democratic policies are infuriatingly dumb.
That’s his only defense for sending thousands to their deaths. Is he a satan imp?
Biden and the Democrats are responsible for the 15 deaths in California, They INVITED them.
This dude doesn’t know what he’s doing. If he so concerned why stall !! 🤷🏼♀️
OMG dummy dummy guy
They make jackets in all sizes. Even ones that fit and don’t gap in the neck. Try it on.
ItCircus I wonder if Texans will keep Abbott in the. Ext election. He doesn’t seem too intelligent to me.
Kind of like Fauci saying asymptomatic spread is a thing, masks work, etc. huh? Without evidence you know.
He is so stupid he does not know what end is up, so caught up in his own lies, does not know the truth, just like the mushroom man trump and cancun cruz!
Then it's another GovAbbott GregAbbott_TX failure. He blocked funds to test migrants, now he's using them as a Scape Goat. He knows the COVID rates will go up with his pulling precautions. So he will blame the people of color.
This guy is a piece of work! I complete idiot!
How is it these Texas republicans so messed up. Their time is soon
Arrest him
Iamworthy9 Of course. These people just lie and lie again. Hoping their shrinking base will believe it and become enraged. It’s a dangerous game. It’s all they have left though. There is no policy.
RobertMaguire_ So, Abbott complaining that migrants being bussed around the nation spreads COVID...isn't that another argument to NOT cancel the mask mandate?
Congratulations GovAbbott for killing your own constituents. You truly are a good governor ... NOT! ResignAbbott
So why doesn’t he agree to prove his claim? Is it because he knows that his claim is baseless and he is using it to deflect attention from his role in the massive power outages and water shortage that afflicted millions of Texans.
Another Trump.
Medicalizing prejudice.
Numerous news outlets, including NBC, report in the last 24 hours that border patrol has released illegal immigrants whom then tested positive for COVID. If the federal government sets policies which are directly causing the spread of virus, one must question who they’re serving.
GovAbbott what is your plan? to kill as many Americans as you can? what is your logic? to bring down America? you should be arrested.
Hey GregAbbott_TX HAVE SOME DECENCY... BE A MAN, AT LEAST ONCE IN YOUR LIFE!!
He likes to lie a lot just like trump
...and they're murderers and rapists too. Abbott is the epitome of a finger-pointing, buck-passing, head-in-sand-science-denying, brain-dead, dogma-rubber-stamper.
How does one sleep at night? I guess those with a dead conscious sleep fine.
Meanwhile Cuomo. . . MeToo CuomoLiedPeopleDied
GregAbbott_TX : Texas is safe from Covid so we’re fully opening. No more masks! Also GregAbbott_TX : minorities and illegals are jeopardizing our health and safety due to Covid Pick a lane, but be careful the Trump terrorist caravans don’t run you off the road
Recall him now before more people die
Now that’s a Nasty Man
Did he also say the Texans leaving the state to go to other states who are infected with Covid will be spreaders?
Solution test migrants and get results prior to release rather then sending funds to mitigate. The later is closing the barn door after the cows get out.
This man is unreasonable
“It’s everyone’s fault but mine” hope this is his last term.
Texas governor GregAbbott is recklessly exposing migrants and refugees with Texans who have COVID19
CNN without evidence claims to be the most trusted source of news...
Fake journalism. Evidence was quoted by him
He's an idiot, get him out of office!!!
Teram323Tere Vote him out 2022!
How about you report on Cuomo instead of a guy actually leading
'Joe Biden says GOP governors are engaging in “Neanderthal thinking.” So what does that make Joe Biden as he releases COVID positive migrants into the U.S. interior? And what kind of leader of a nation would do that to their own people? '
SaraMurray The pro-covid, no responsibility party in action.
What an ass. So, testing and masks are a no-no?
Of course he is
You are no Neanderthal baby. You are just weird.
What will it take for CNN to finally call Greg Abbott a mass murderer? I mean if the inaction on mass shootings, willful killing via a pandemic, allowing cops to murder residents, and the deathly rules on abortion aren't it?
Teram323Tere Dump Abbott 2022! Say NO to Abbott!!!!
Y R the migrants being released in TX. They shld be sent back to their country and let them be tested there. We are the US not UN.
Why wouldn't migrants expose texans to covid? Texans have exposed texans to covid. Get a grip.

Hey no worries Gov. Abbot says a lot of stupid things that most Texans totally ignore as political garble.
I guess we are now starting to see who will be Trump's new VP choice for the 2024 general election.
I am so tired of Texas. Please leave the union.
Just another typical Texan fuckup.

I'm starting to think this guy's not very bright.
No...Texans are exposing Texans to COVID.
Another fear tactic. Should've just stopped speaking after lifting facemask mandate and reopening 100%.
Hypocrites!
