700 million, “tens of thousands of migrants”, that’s about ten to seventy thousand per head. And that’s just for transporting them!

    but I fail to see how being a sanctuary city justifies trafficking people and dumping them in another state

    You fail to see how actively supporting illegal immigration is justification for dumping the problem on them?

      Got it, you don’t know what a sanctuary city is, and you think that people existing in your state is a problem you can solve with kidnapping.

          These people? Not yet, this just happened.

          But these people were deceived. Kidnapping by deception is the legal equivalent of using force.

          Some people have reported being intimidated, some have said that they were told there would be services, some report being told that it was going to expedite their asylum process.

          None of these people have committed a crime. Existence is not illegal. It is not a crime to cross the border. It is not a crime to seek asylum. There’s a process, and all of these people are going through it. They have case numbers and wristbands with their info on it. Calling them “illegals” is both dishonest and reveals your own prejudice. If they had been denied asylum in court, then they would be deported.
