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.

Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas took aim at Texas Gov. Greg Abbott Wednesday morning, calling his busing of migrants to cities across the country “a remarkable failure of governance.”

“We have one governor, in the state of Texas, who is refusing to cooperate with other governors and other local officials,” Mayorkas said on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe.” “And it’s a remarkable failure of governance to refuse to cooperate with one’s fellow local and state officials.”

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, leaving local officials scrambling to receive the migrants.
