so called sanctuary cities are. They’re simply cities that don’t detain anyone based SOLELY on their immigration status. That’s the federal government’s job. The federal immigration agencies need to be adequately funded to do it. “Sanctuary cities” aren’t stopping them from doing their job. Inadequate resources are, and republicans don’t want to pay for the immigration system they want.

As for your final paragraph, that’s utter bullshit and rivals TK’s rants on the Great Replacement Theory for stupidity.

Abbott’s mistreatment of immigrants is a pandering stunt using vulnerable humans as pawns. But of course that’s directly on brand for republicans: “I’ve got mine so fuck you” and pretending everything is Dems’ fault.
