Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson (D) went after Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) during a recent MSNBC interview, claiming that the Texas leader has purposely been "attacking" cities run by black leaders by shipping in illegal immigrants.
MSNBC host Al Sharpton complained to Johnson about the ongoing crisis of illegal immigration and its effect on cities, arguing that it "puts a tremendous burden on [Johnson] and other Democratic mayors, I might add, many black mayors have been the focal of this. In fact, on Thursday, New York City Mayor Eric Adams filed a $700 million lawsuit against 17 charter bus companies who transported migrants from Texas."
"What are your thoughts about the case, and is this an action you would consider taking as well?" Sharpton asked.
