Quote

 

A plane carrying approximately 48 migrants from Venezuela and Colombia landed unexpectedly at Martha’s Vineyard Airport Wednesday afternoon. Island officials and emergency management representatives were gathering to deal with the situation. 

“We’re immigrants,” said Eliase, who said he was from Venezuela. “We came here because of the situation in our country, for the economy, for work, for lots of things. I came here walking. We went through 10 different countries until we got to Texas. There a refugee association put us in a plane and told us there would be work and housing here. I feel good, despite everything. We spent four days in Texas so it’s good to be here."

 

“They came with folders with a pamphlet with our information,” said Beth Folcarelli, chief executive officer of Martha’s Vineyard Community Services. “We don’t have refugee services, I had no idea about any of this. I only found out because one of them gave me their folder. Imagine being dropped in here knowing no one. Absolutely no one. It’s heartbreaking.”

 

The Million Dollar question is why do they not have Refugee services? I doubt anybody forced them to come to the US.

“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”

Most Venezolanos with legitimate asylum claims come here on valid tourist visas and then apply for asylum.  I'd give this batch of Vs the benefit of the doubt.  Conversely, the Colombianos almost certainly have less valid claims.

 

Refugee services are available at the 0bummer mansion on the soon-to-be-under-water-consequent-to-climate-change Martha's Vineyard beachfront.  :lol:

Good on DeSantis!!  Send the illegals where the people are actually wanting them, to all the "sanctuary cities".

I noticed ole Lightfoot changed her stance on illegals recently.  Ole CrazyEyes does not approve of Abbott sending illegals to her city, so she shooed some of them off to a nearby republican city.
 

 
 

 

 


Hope YT link don't upset anyone.

Exactly.  
 

Give me your tired, your poor,

Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!”

 

Those words say “me”, instead the people of Martha’s Vineyard  who voted for Joe Biden (who invited the tempest-tost to America) thought they meant California, Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas.  
 

No.  Words have meaning and  Elections have consequences.
 

When will the governors of California and New Mexico stand up for their states as the governors of Arizona and Texas do?

I expected the response or non-response from the governor of CA, but I am surprised the NM governor is not making more of an issue.  I know she is a Democrat, but I suspect they are also being inundated.

I see the governor of TX just had the buses drop off the illegal immigrants in front of Kamala's house.

 

One wonders is Desantis and Abbott colluded to time these humanitarian flights and rides.

Collude? Must be a Russian plot. Everyone knows a GOP pol can’t collude without Russians.

Why are the woke Left/Dems/MSM calling a free ride to Martha's Vineyard calling this inhumane?  It seems like a very humane practice to send these illegal immigrants to such a tolerant area.
