Washington state is the slowly becoming like Gaza. My wife and I two years ago wanted to go to a hotel only to realize that the whole hotel had become a homeless shelter paid for by the washington left establishment. Drugs are legal in washington state. Drunks druggies and open carry gun permits.

I have been in Tukwilla 5 min Way from the Seattle airport.

Lt Col John (Jack) Christensen We went to the USO in Seatac. We turned in our rental car early. It worked out perfectly and we got snacks for free at the USO and bedding.

Lt Col John (Jack) Christensen The parole is a croc and the President will take it back. Just as dumb as forgiving student loans under a covid Statute for non-military. Roll does exist, but not 7 million plus+ . Democrats do not want to deport those who are felons. It's like Roach Motel for aspiring democrats.. They can Check-in, but they can check out.

Nice to know that there are still places that don't buy the MAGA mentality.

Lt Col John (Jack) Christensen - About 1,500 illegal aliens cross the border in the El Paso Sector per day.
Source: https://www.cnn.com/2022/10/08/us/el-paso-launches-migrant-dashboard/index.html

Texas Busses about 100 illegal aliens to Chicago per day.
Source: https://abc7chicago.com/chicago-migrants-immigrants-border-migrant/13191997/#:~:text=CHICAGO%20%28WLS%29%20--%20Around%20100%20migrants%20a%20day,arrived%20here%20the%20since%20August%20of%20last%20year.

The Population of El Paso is about 679,000
The Population of Chicago is about 2,750,000

So Chicago is for times the size of El Paso, but Chicago is overwhelmed by 1/15th the number of illegal aliens.

Maj John Bell You know when I was in Del Rio in 1968-69 I saw upwards of 1000 illegal aliens cross the border looking for work. Some got work, some didn't and went back across the border until tomorrow, and some moved on to other places. It wasn't considered a crisis, just business as usual.

Lt Col John (Jack) Christensen - So what?

1. Anecdotal information with no source. (There it is that old pesky MAGA debate tactic, I don't take your unsupported word for it. You going to start taking my word for it with no support? Are we going to trade partisan organic fertilizer back and forth?).
2. Was the federal, state or local government providing shelter, food and basic necessities for those who remained in 1968-69?
3. Your words "The problem is that MAGA thinkers create an artificial problem by sending massive amounts to only certain sanctuary cities." Doing the math, if the burden was being shared equally:
_Chicago is overwhelmed by 100 illegal aliens and refugee/asylum seekers per day. _Chicago is roughly 4 times the size of El Paso
_El Paso is receiving about 1500 illegal aliens and refugee/asylum seekers per day.
_El Paso is carrying more than its "fair" share unless 1475 of the 1500 illegal aliens and refugee/asylum seekers are returning across the border, back into Mexico. (Umh... yeah... no, they aren't.)
