Freakout Over Martha's Vineyard Flight Ignores the Real Problem

 Freakout Over Martha's Vineyard Flight Ignores the Real Problem (townhall.com)

Whatever number you choose, 4,431 total illegal crossings or 3,543 allowed to stay, the number is a lot bigger than the 48 migrants who landed in Martha's Vineyard. And yet, the outrage! Critics lined up to call DeSantis' transfer of illegal crossers to a luxury redoubt in Massachusetts cruel and inhuman and un-American and anti-American and "literally human trafficking" and more. A Boston-based group called Lawyers for Civil Rights demanded that the United States Justice Department and the Massachusetts attorney general investigate and possibly prosecute DeSantis for an alleged "conspiracy to deprive our clients of their liberty and civil rights and interfere with federal immigration proceedings."

Soros-Funded Group Behind Lawsuit Against DeSantis on Martha’s Vineyard Flights | Newsbusters   . . ."This is nothing new for Soros, who has bankrolled several far-left, pro-open borders organizations. In January 2022, a Soros-funded group secured a $158 million government contract to help illegal immigrants avoid deportation, in what appears to be a violation of U.S. border security policy. 

"DeSantis, on the other hand, has voiced support for strong national borders. He tweeted on Sept. 15 that in Florida, “we take what is happening at the southern border seriously. We are not a sanctuary state, and we will gladly facilitate the transport of illegal immigrants to sanctuary jurisdictions.” 

"The LCR patted itself on the back in its press release, calling its lawsuit against DeSantis part of a “herculean pro bono effort” backed by an “army of volunteer attorneys.” Their stated objective was to seek “damages” from DeSantis for his supposedly “unlawful relocation scheme” of roughly 50 migrants to Martha’s Vineyard." 

Shocking behavior by Putin and Biden

 

Shocking behavior by Putin and Biden - Asia Times   "Anyone who listened to Vladimir Putin’s TV broadcast to his nation on September 21 had to be shocked by the Russian leader’s tone, incoherence and threat.

"US President Joe Biden, in a speech to the UN General Assembly, only made matters worse, not better, by putting all of the burden unequivocally on Putin’s head.

"There are many impacts from these events, including the bitter possibility of a wider war that will spill over into Europe.

"Both Biden and Putin seem to think they can play this kind of poker. Not only will they both lose, but the world will be greatly endangered.

"To take the view that the only outcome in Ukraine is win or lose, and that if Russia loses it may use weapons of mass destruction or the Russian government may collapse into chaos, is not in anyone’s interest.". . .

Letitia James Launches Desperate New Attack in War on Trump

 

New York AG Letitia James continues her obsessive quest to destroy Trump - American Thinker  

. . .Heck, the case is so bad that even Bill Barr, who’s become Trump’s mortal enemy when it comes to disputing the American president’s plenary power to declassify anything he wants, has gone on record saying that the case is a “political hit job,” that constituted “gross overreach,” that will end up “backfiring,” because it will increase sympathy for Trump. The suit, he concluded, is nothing more than a manifestation of Trump Derangement Syndrome.  

No president in American history has paid such a high price for daring to buck the establishment. Trump may be gone from office, but the leftists holding power across America have vowed to do everything they can to hunt him down and destroy him. Is it appropriate for me, at this point, to remind them again that Moby Dick won and Ahab went down with the ship?.

Letitia James Launches Desperate New Attack in War on Trump (townhall.com) "It's no secret that Democrats are willing to do or try anything to keep Donald Trump out of polite society or elected office — from Joe Biden's divisive speech calling the former president and his supporters fascists to the DOJ's raid on Mar-a-Lago. But now, New York Attorney General Letitia James has opened a new front in the left's attacks by filing a 220-page civil lawsuit against Donald Trump for alleged "intentional and deliberate fraud.". . .

Martha's Meltdown Model

  RealClearPolitics  . . ."Most, like Washington, D.C., and New York, were on record as sanctuary city jurisdictions. In the abstract, they endorse open borders and celebrate diversity -- from the serenity of thousands of miles away.

"The uproar at Martha's Vineyard prompted the Democratic hierarchy to do some explaining. Why had it not earlier objected to the federal government night flights of tens of thousands of border-crossers to red-state communities that had opposed illegal immigration?

"And why be angry with governors who were only emulating that policy by flying in a mere 50 newcomers -- in the light of day -- to a far wealthier and liberal-minded sanctuary resort?

"Florida Governor Ron DeSantis gave the nearly all-white, rich vacation spot an opportunity to match noble words with even nobler deeds. But in response, the 1 percent screamed that their small community could not possibly cope with a mere 50 new arrivals.

"So far, wealthy progressive enclaves in Malibu, Aspen, and Napa have not stepped up to alleviate the "burden" put on their Martha's Vineyard brethren.

"They should ask how does a poor Yuma or El Paso sustain hundreds of thousands crossing illegally into their communities -- once Joe Biden effectively rendered federal immigration law null and void?". . .

Illegal Aliens, Deported from Martha’s Vineyard, Want to Return to ‘Beautiful’ Island –

 IOTW Report  "Illegal aliens who were deported off Martha’s Vineyard less than 48 hours after their arrival now say they would like to return to the “beautiful” elite island home of the wealthy’s summer estates.

"Late last week, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) sent two flights packed with 50 illegal aliens from Venezuela to Martha’s Vineyard, where former President Obama has a sprawling 29-acre summer estate.

"Less than 48 hours after their arrival, officials on Martha’s Vineyard declared a “humanitarian crisis” and claimed they have a “housing crisis” that prevents them from being able to absorb border crossers and illegal aliens, even as the island could shelter six million refugees.

"As a result, Massachusetts Gov. Charlie Baker (R) intervened to bus the illegal aliens off Martha’s Vineyard to Joint Base Cape Cod. Some of the illegal aliens are now suing DeSantis, claiming he violated their Fourth and Fourteenth Amendment rights.

"Although left-wing attorneys have claimed that the illegal aliens are “very traumatized” by their arrival on Martha’s Vineyard, some of the illegal aliens have told Catholic Charities that they would love to return to the elite island because of “how beautiful” it is: more here". . .

Are Dems Finally Remembering They Never Liked Kamala Harris? –

  PJ Media  . . ."This is a good time to remember that Her Most Uncomfortable Cackleness isn’t really popular among the people in her own party. She was drummed out of the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination when it was still 2019. When Biden promised to pick a Black woman as his running mate, Harris was thrown into a very small employment pool. As with much of her rise in California, she got lucky.

"Stacey wrote something yesterday that was both amusing and telling about just how much Kamala Harris is on the minds of some Democrats. On a recent episode of The View, Joy Behar gushed that her dream ticket for 2024 might just be Gavin Newsom and Stacey Abrams.

"Oops.

"OK, I know that Joy Behar couldn’t win a battle of wits with a dead goldfish, but it’s still pretty stunning that any of the Democrat pander harridans on The View would blank out on the HISTORIC FIRST Veep that we have when discussing scenarios where Biden might not run in 2024.

"By the way, Stacey Abrams was in that very small employment pool I mentioned above and she lost out to Harris. That makes Behar’s comments even more embarrassing for whatever Harris supporters may be left in America.

"It’s not surprising that Harris hasn’t done anything memorable as Joe Biden’s second in command. Democrats don’t have to be talented to go far in California politics, they simply have to be connected. Here is Stacey’s always unique take on part of the reason for Harris’s success:. . ."

 Show Us the Way, Rich Liberals! - by Ann Coulter - Unsafe (substack.com)

     . . .Note to Gov. DeSantis: Keep the flights going. Never stop. And in about three years, remember the words “immigration fraud” and “repatriation.”. . .

    

"It’s been awe-inspiring to see the bottomless generosity of Martha’s Vineyard residents after Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis sent them 50 illegal immigrants from Venezuela last week.

      "Unlike angry, white MAGA voters upset about their towns being flooded with illegals, Vineyard residents would LOVE to be sort of a — what’s the word? — “sanctuary” for illegals. Really, they would. But that won’t be possible.

     "As Lisa Belcastro, manager of the Vineyard’s homeless shelter, succinctly put it: “We are definitely supplying them with a lot of love … They need to be off island.” The illegals “need” to hustle off because “Their immigration appointments are not here.” (Are their appointments in the Trump-supporting working-class town they were bussed to?)

   "GREAT NEWS, LISA! Nearly half of released illegals don’t appear for their hearings anyway. And guess what? There are absolutely no consequences. (A dozen anti-American websites claim that vast, gigantic numbers of illegals show up for their hearings, but they’re counting illegals who are being held in detention.)

     "On NPR, Vineyard radio host Eve Zuckoff also began with a testimonial about how “the community rallied”! But unfortunately, “there isn’t the infrastructure.” What do these great humanitarians imagine dirt-poor towns in south Texas have in terms of “infrastructure”?

     "Every single objection Vineyard residents have raised against the illegals being allowed to stay is precisely what ordinary Americans — not privileged enough to live in Martha’s Vineyard — have been screaming from the rooftops for 30 years. Those 50 illegals represent less than a millionth of the “enrichment” that’s already been foisted on the rest of America. (They’re 1/100,000th of the illegals admitted just under Biden.”)". . .

Biden Shames America and Insults the Crown With His Behavior at the Queen's Funeral

 Biden Shames America and Insults the Crown With His Behavior at the Queen's Funeral (townhall.com)  . . ."And as we then saw during the lengthy proceedings of the burial ceremony, Trump could hardly have been more embarrassing than President Biden on this solemn day. The first issue was that Biden felt the need to buck the Royal directives regarding the ceremony. Almost all of the world leaders and foreign dignitaries in attendance followed the delivered protocols and rode to the church in the assigned motor coaches set up for their arrival. 

"This was not a debasement of authority. Leaders of foreign lands and royalty were carried in on the buses, including Prime Ministers and Kings. Biden, however, filed for and received a dispensation.

" He was later granted permission to arrive in his presidential limousine and motorcade; the reason for this was not given, but the appearance was notably gauche and crass in contrast. 

"Then Biden managed to pull off his usual crudeness and arrived at the chapel 30 minutes late. This has become a trademark of this president. Whether it be a planned event, social appearance, or scheduled press conference, Biden is consistently extremely late for proscribed start times. 

"He even was notably tardy at a global conference and was chastised over this by the very unrefined Boris Johnson, of all people.

" For Biden to do this at a Royal funeral ceremony is beyond embarrassing on an international scale; boorish behavior on the world stage. 

"When it came time to sign the official condolence guest book, again, Biden managed to turn heads – in the same manner as a dog twitching its head when presented with something unforeseen. As he sat to fill in his solemn respects, he did so while working off one of his now infamous note sheets. He could not somehow deliver genuine feelings – he had to work off a prepared statement.". . .

DeSantis Isn’t Sweating The Migrant Class Action Lawsuit. Here’s Why

. . ."But DeSantis clearly anticipated the radical, hypocritical left’s response, and he revealed on Tuesday that the migrants signed consent forms.

“ 'It is opportunistic that activists would use illegal immigrants for political theater. If these activists spent even a fraction of this time and effort at the border, perhaps some accountability would be brought to the Biden Administration’s reckless border policies that entice illegal immigrants to make dangerous and often lethal journeys through Central America and put their lives in the hands of cartels and Coyotes,” DeSantis’ office said in a statement. “The transportation of the immigrants to Martha’s Vineyard was done on a voluntary basis. The immigrants were homeless, hungry, and abandoned – and these activists didn’t care about them then.”

“ 'Florida’s program gave them a fresh start in a sanctuary state and these individuals opted to take advantage of chartered flights to Massachusetts,” the statement continued. “It was disappointing that Martha’s Vineyard called in the Massachusetts National Guard to bus them away from the island within 48 hours.' ”. . .
