Abbott has been sending a steady flow of buses filled with asylum seekers from Texas to Democratic-led cities including New York, New Jersey and Chicago.
Department of Homeland Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas faulted Texas Gov. Greg Abbott for the scores of migrants pouring into blue cities and states across the country.
"There are more people who were shot every weekend in Chicago than there are in schools in Texas." Abbott declared, after claiming he was sorry to have to say it.
