And as in previous cases, the only one to be held responsible will be the driver of the truck!

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott, a Republican, blamed the incident on President Joe Biden's immigration policies.

"These deaths are on Biden," he said in a tweet. "They are a result of his deadly open border policies."

After all, he has spent $5 billion in taxpayer funds attempting to close the border.

Oops, he forgot thoughts and prayers. Well, since they were immigrants he didn't forget at all.
