Not sure how you frame a political stunt as a moral comeuppance.

I disagree. I've seen poling and heard numerous stories of citizens of sanctuary cites that were not border cites and have a very negligible issue with illegal migration suddenly having to deal with it first that shows that trucking migrants has moved the needle.

Dozens of stories in whatever news media you consume has nothing to do with whether there are serious policy conversations about revisiting sanctuary city laws in those cities.
"Changing minds" is what I said, not changing policy.

Ha, is AP news up to your standards[1]? How about a direct quote from the Mayor of New York City?
> Citing his “fundamental disagreement” with those laws, [Mayor] Adams, a Democrat, said the city’s police department should be free to cooperate with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents when a person is suspected of a serious crime, such as robbery or gang activity.
You can dislike it all you want but bussing immigrants has had a major effect on people's opinions in the sanctuary cities they are bussed to.
