The state of Texas has transported more than 103,000 illegal aliens to Democrat led sanctuary cities under Governor Greg Abbott's Operation Lone Star.

That over 12,500 to Washington, D.C. since April 2022; 38,200 to New York City since August 2022; 31,700 to Chicago since August 2022; 3,400 to Philadelphia since November 2022; 16,300 to Denver since May 2023; and 1,500 to Los Angeles since June 2023.

Elsewhere, President Joe Biden told a group of Governors at the White House yesterday that he is contemplating executive action at the border.

Utah Gov. Spencer Cox, the Republican chair of the association, told reporters that Biden didn't specify what actions he is considering, but he said the president noted he was confronting the limits of what he can do without Congress.

"He did say that he has been working with his attorneys, trying to understand what executive action would be upheld in the courts and would be constitutional, and that he seemed a little frustrated that he was not getting answers from attorneys that he felt he could take the kind of actions that he wanted to," Cox said.
