Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis sent two full planes of migrants to Martha’s
Vineyard on Wednesday — making good on his promise to ship off illegal
immigrants to progressive states.
The migrants got off the planes from Florida and could be seen on the
tarmac at Martha’s Vineyard Airport on the small Massachusetts island, Fox
News Digital reported.
A spokesperson for the Republican governor confirmed in a statement to the
outlet that the flights were “part of the state’s relocation program to
transport illegal immigrants to sanctuary destinations.”
“States like Massachusetts, New York and California will better facilitate
the care of these individuals who they have invited into our country by
incentivizing illegal immigration through their designation as ‘sanctuary
states’ and support for the Biden administration’s open border policies,”
said Taryn Fenske, the governor’s communication director.
Florida state legislators appropriated $12 million from the state budget
for the Florida Department of Transportation to implement the immigrant
relocation program in April.
Massachusetts Gov. Charlie Baker’s office said the arrivals at Martha’s
Vineyard were provided short-term shelter, Fox reported.
“The Baker-Polito Administration is in touch with local officials
regarding the arrival of migrants in Martha’s Vineyard,” Terry MacCormack,
Baker’s press secretary, wrote in a statement to the outlet. “At this
time, short-term shelter services are being provided by local officials,
and the Administration will continue to support those efforts.”
The Vineyard is a popular vacation destination beloved by progressive
celebrities and politicians like former President Barack Obama, who owns a
multimillion-dollar home on the island.
DeSantis had proposed Martha’s Vineyard or Delaware — President Biden’s
home state — as possible destinations for individuals removed from his
state through the immigrant relocation program.
“It is not the responsibility of Floridians to subsidize aliens to reside
in our state unlawfully; we did not consent to Biden’s open-borders
agenda,” the governor’s office said at the time of the program’s launch.
DeSantis is not the only Republican governor to send off migrants to
progressive parts of the country.
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott has been shipping thousands of people who entered
the US illegally to Washington, DC, New York City and Chicago. Arizona has
also sent busloads of migrants to Washington.

Despite insisting that their cities are safe spaces for illegal
immigrants, Democrats have a tendency to push migrants off to their
neighbors.
Earlier this month, a Washington Post editorial acknowledged there was “no
end in sight to the procession of buses inbound” to Washington, D.C., and
praised Mayor Muriel Bowser for earmarking $10 million for the nearly
10,000 illegal immigrants who have arrived in the capital — about 15
percent of whom intend to remain there.
The Biden administration pretends it has the burgeoning problem of illegal
immigration under control. Late last month, White House spokeswoman Karine
Jean-Pierre claimed that people aren’t just walking across the border. And
just last week, Vice President Kamala Harris insisted the border was
“secure.”
Much of the national media are happy to play along with this deliberate
deception. The same corporate media that last year blithely ignored the
federal government’s mass, midnight airlifting of illegal immigrants to
New York; Jacksonville, Florida; and points beyond are now obsessed when a
southern governor flies 50 Venezuelans to swanky Martha’s Vineyard.
In their eyes, when the administration ships tens of thousands of illegal
immigrants under cover of darkness, it’s no big deal. But if the Post
spots 50 people flown into Martha’s Vineyard, somehow, it’s a “crisis.”
The media never accused the administration of using migrants as pawns or
being inhumane, yet the latter is doing exactly what Texas and Arizona are
on a vast scale.
The Post’s editors argue that “state and local officials nationwide must
accommodate a flow of migrants — in schools, shelters, streets” as if
there is no alternative. They seem unaware that for 250 years, the United
States had an immigration law and that, for much of that time, the
executive branch did its job, enforcing the law and defending our border.
What the open-borders, sanctuary-city crowd are at last realizing is that
their blank checks can be cashed. New York and Washington’s social
services are drowning under a mere 10,000 arrivals each. They’re lucky not
to be El Paso (population 684,000), which is dealing with 1,400 illegal
migrants arriving per day, or Yuma (population 97,000), which has received
250,000 so far this year.
Mayor Bowser’s $10 million might sound like a lot, but putting just 200
people in hotel rooms in Washington at $200 per night comes out to upwards
of $15 million annually, and educating the “about 70” new illegal
immigrant children now enrolled in D.C. public schools will cost a couple
million more for the first year. What happens next year?
New York City already has 7,600 migrants in its homeless shelters, which
are 99 percent full, and is struggling to find housing for 5,000 new
arrivals. As if trying to put out a fire with an eye-dropper, the city has
opened a $6.7 million “welcome center” in Manhattan to receive migrants
arriving by bus. Cost estimates for housing the city’s noncitizens already
exceed $300 million a year. To complicate things, New York requires
residents to spend at least 90 days in a shelter before being eligible for
housing vouchers. It also requires a background check to verify
applications. This normally takes a month, but it will presumably longer
to process illegal immigrants who have no records that can be checked.
Even assuming all the new arrivals actually claim asylum, the average wait
for an initial hearing in New York is over three years. In the meantime,
they will be public charges on the city’s schools, hospitals, and housing.
How long will New York taxpayers put up with this? Well, Mayor Eric Adams
has admitted that the city is reaching the end of its rope, and officials
are now said to be reconsidering their “right to shelter” commitment to
house unlimited foreign indigents on top of New York’s plentiful home-
grown needy.
New York and Washington actually look tough compared to Chicago. Mayor
Lori Lightfoot proudly signed a “Welcoming City” ordinance in February
2021 to stop city police from working with Immigration and Customs
Enforcement. But when the first busloads of 50 migrants arrived in early
September, she packed them off to neighboring Burr Ridge without telling
its mayor.
Later, when 500 migrants arrived in Chicago, Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker
declared an emergency and called out the National Guard. Coincidentally,
Chicago has suffered almost the same number (491) of murders this year,
but that’s not considered an emergency worthy of mobilizing the guard.
How long will this game of pass-the-parcel continue? Migrants deserve to
be treated with dignity and compassion. However, that does not require
those who enter illegally to stay here — on the taxpayer’s dime — until
our overwhelmed immigration courts can get around to hearing their cases.
Under the Migrant Protection Protocols, they could be housed outside our
borders while their cases are considered. Even if not, ICE has to be
allowed to do its duty, and those who fail to file for asylum or whose
cases are denied after due process should be quickly deported as the law
requires. It’s time President Biden stopped denying the crisis at the
southern border and accepted the truth. Only then can we work for a
national solution to the ongoing migrant crisis.

On 10/8/2022 12:51 PM, some racist cunt lied:

This is a lie site telling lies. A town, city or state declaring itself a
"sanctuary community" means it won't cooperate with the feds in trying to seize
and deport undocumented migrants. That is *all* it means. It does not mean
"Send 'em all here, we'll put them up in four star hotels and feed them filet
mignon and lobster."
Martha's Vineyard residents passed the compassion test. They gave generously to
the kidnapped-and-trafficked migrants. The commonwealth of Massachusetts then
found a more suitable place for the migrants to stay.
