Martha’s Vineyard Has Enough of Illegal Immigrants After 24 Hours

-

Martha's Vineyard, Massachusetts has whisked away the 50 migrants flown there by Gov. (R-Fla.) after 24 hours.

On Friday the migrants boarded buses with the help of members of the Massachusetts National Guard where they proceeded to a military base on Cape Cod.

The Washington Free Beacon reports:

The flights are part of an effort by DeSantis and Texas governor (R.) to transport migrants to states whose leaders have endorsed “sanctuary” laws and lax immigration enforcement but haven't faced the large influx of migrants that southern states have.

The unannounced arrival of migrants caused chaos at Martha's Vineyard, which has a year-round population of roughly 20,000. Some locals and organizations on the island pitched in to shelter and feed the migrants, but others were less welcoming. “We don't have housing for 50 more people,” said one resident who insisted the new arrivals couldn't stay.

Democrats, including failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, called DeSantis's move an unethical exploitation of migrants and “.” But the administrations of DeSantis and Abbott insist the migrants know where they're going and are not forced to take the buses and planes.

“The minute even a small fraction of what those border towns deal with every day is brought to their front door, they all of a sudden go berserk and they're so upset this is happening,” DeSantis said Friday of blue states. “It just shows you, you know, their virtue signaling is a fraud.”

  1. Way to go Florida & Texas !!
    Now do it again, again and again. This community was OVERWHELMED with just 50 people in one day and they CALLED THE NATIONAL GUARD !! … and then shipped them somewhere else. Americans are behind this idea. If this is what it takes to re-instate “Wait in Mexico”, then keep it up. At least with that policy, we used the Mexican Govt to our advantage. They will slow the flow from their southern border if they know the invaders can’t cross their northern border into the U.S.

    • House them where they house all the other immigrants that come every summer to work the restaurants where all the elites dine.

  2. DeSantis opened a very large can of elite hypocrites. This got the ball rolling! If DeSantis “used” these 50 Venezuelans, how lucky they are!!!!!! YOU BUFFOONS!

    • The migrants volunteered for the free trip to Martha’s Vineyard including a short all-paid vacation before continuing their journey to Boston, which they declared as their final destination. Upon finding their invited guests were not up to their standards, without degrees from Harvard and Yale, titles of nobility, nor ten-digit bank accounts, the military was summarily called to come load them onto buses and send them on their way.

      • Of course they acted this way, they are snobs. It just fine when a couple of hundred thousand of the illegals flood our border states every month, and overwhelm the cities there, but when they get 50 of them it drives them crazy. How dare those governors send those criminals into their world where they are not welcome. Maybe the governors should sent a few thousand more up that way, then those bigots can show their true colors. That’s a typical left wing reaction.

  3. If the President can send these illegals all over the country then these Governors have every right to send illegals to sanctuary cities & states!! Thats called “””TIT FOR TAT ! TAKE THAT ELITIST !

  4. That’s the philosophy of liberals. NIMBY- not in my back yard.
    It’s ok for these pompous windbags to tell us how we must accept illegals but not them because of their self-imagined deluded self importance.
    Couldn’t be a better way of exposing the hypocrisy.

  5. What a bunch of hypocrites. They need to fund construction for low-cost housing and apartments to house their new residents, open some food pantries, and homeless shelters and bring in some porta-potties. Deporting them to Cape Cod using military personnel says they are racists and elitists which should not be allowed to exist in modern America. Have they no compassion at all? Some “sanctuary” when some seeking sanctuary actually show up and are given the bum’s rush. Shame!

  6. Why ever would my helpful comments below be put in line for approval before being posted? That they are racists and elitists to call in the military to deport these sanctuary seekers after declaring themselves a “sanctuary city” IS a bit hypocritical, don’t you think?

  7. Where is the sense of compassion, charity, concern for their fellow man? Sorely lacking I would say. They spout euphemisms about inclusivity, equality, open borders and want illegals to come in, only NOT in THEIR ritzy digs! It is ok for the border states to be inundated by hordes of illegals with NO government help, but let fifty migrants be sent to THEM and they go spastic! Shows what kind of people they are! They all have more than enough money and space to help them, but they get rid of them as soon as possible, they can’t possibly be inconvenienced by homeless migrants that they invited in. Keep sending them, make them deal with what they have created. It is only fair after all! What say you Barack and big mike? Shouldn’t you be helping them?

  8. What a crock of raw sewage that is. Sanctuary City huh! They have how many thousand visitor every summer? All these filthy rich Democrats with huge mansions and lots of bedrooms. , Beyonce, Oprah, Obama, Rosie O Donell,put your money where your mouth is, Summer will be over and winter means these ILLEGALS need your bedrooms. Send them to Uncle Gomer Biden in Delaware.. He let them in,all wearing new clothes,shoes and backpacks. Let him welcome them imeet the Misses, son Hunter (what a treat) and the family. ,If its a Cartel pig,or a sex trafficker, drug mule, what a conversation that would be. Hunter will shine!

  9. Poor vinegards elitist, you can’ last 24 hours with the illegals that we are being subjected to 24/7. If we don’t stop crying for you, we are going to flood the State of Florida completely! NOT!!!!!

  10. ‘oh Hellooooo! Welcome! …but you cannot stay HERE. Not in MY back yard, you don’t!’ Off to a makeshift concentration camp…

  11. It’s nice to see the bleeding heart liberals with their “sanctuary cities” getting a taste of what they voted for. DeSantis called their bluff. Good job!
