Who is paying for all these illegal aliens?

 

[...] We see thousands of illegal aliens looking happy and healthy as they enter.  They surely did not walk all the way from Central America.  They probably rode in buses most of the way, then walked the final few hundred yards to look more pathetic.  Some come from overseas.  Those illegal aliens did not swim across the ocean.  [...]

Massachusetts asks homeowners to take in illegal migrants

 

Government officials in Massachusetts have realized that they suddenly have a lot of people arriving who don't have a place to stay.  And while neither they nor the mainstream press seem eager to discuss the specifics, these aren't just homeless Bostonians who have fallen on hard times.  They are migrants, most of them illegal, who have been showing up by the busload [...]

That's according to the CDC, which says that there is "rising evidence that leprosy has become endemic in the southeastern United States."  [...]

Often spread by possum on the half shell. We use to run over them all the time on the tank trails at Ft. Stewart.  Never saw one in middle ga, but they are now common.

In Louisiana, the natives go out in the morning to draw chalk circles around the roadkill on the highways.  In the evening, they go out again.  Anything without a circle around it, they know it's fresh, so that becomes supper.

Mayor Eric Adams gets only insults from Mayorkas over NYC migrant crisis

 

What an insult.

 

NYC Mayor Eric Adams trekked down to DC Thursday to meet with DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas about migrants from the border overwhelming the city. 

 

Mayorkas promised to . . . send a federal staffer. 

 

He’s got to be kidding.

 

To do what, exactly?

 

Keep a seat warm in City Hall?

 

This, despite the growing calls from Democrats for real action by the White House on the border.

Ultra-Leftist virtue signaling.  Progress?

 

Sanctuary cities were always a fraud

 

I got my first taste of this species of virtue signaling back in the 1980s, when I briefly lived in Amherst Massachusetts. The issue wasn’t immigration, but nuclear weapons, but the virtue signaling was of exactly the same type.

 

Amherst, you see, declared itself a “nuclear-free” zone.

 

Examples of idiotic liberal virtue signaling are as common as ants at a picnic, and the particular idiocy of the 1980s was the anti-nuclear movement that focused on freezing nuclear weapons production. The useful idiots believed that passing an ordinance against nuclear weapons in their municipalities would make the world a more peaceful place, and proudly put up signs informing everyone that they disagreed with Ronald Reagan’s military buildup.
