Governor Abbott is putting up billboards in Mexico and Central American warning migrant not to come to the US illegally or they will be arrested and deported.
Abbott is also using other messages on the billboards like “How much did you pay to have your daughter raped?”
Here’s more from Bill Melugin:
Texas Governor @GregAbbott_TX announces a new billboard campaign in MX to dissuade migrants from crossing illegally & paying cartels to smuggle them.
“How much did you pay to have your daughter raped?”
“Your wife & daughter will pay for their trip w/ their bodies”.
Abbott says the billboards are going up in both Mexico and Central America, and will be in multiple languages including Spanish, Chinese, Russian, and Arabic.
He says the billboards also warn migrants that they will be arrested and jailed if they cross illegally into Texas, and that the Trump administration will prioritize them for deportation if they’ve been arrested.
