Everyone who is honest with at least a HS diploma recognizes the left offers lip service for votes. They routinely fail the minority community yet all they say is well, at least he said he would try to help.

Look up pandering folks. The definition should come with a picture of Biden, Pelosi etc, etc.

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.

If you really want to be honest, you'd recognize both sides offer lip service for votes and the bussing stunts are pandering - to you.

Now this is a really stupid OP. First, in Marths's they did not send the migrants away, the Governor of the state had them removed to a secure location. Second, anything coming from the Federalist Society is always pure BS. Example is to look at Judge Cannon and her opinion on the Trump documents, that is the Federalist Society's idea of the truth.

Believe what you may. We all know what happened. I’m just calling it out.

The only thing this post tells me is you don't know what a sanctuary city is.

They are not safe spaces. The fed can go in and arrest any illegals they find.
 

Martha’s Vineyard Isn’t The First Time Democrats Failed To Live Up To Their Empty ‘Sanctuary’ Promises​



As usual, a rather idiotic OP headline from the get go. If you don't have some evidence of the local government of Marth's Vineyard promising themselves as a "sanctuary city", then you're just talking out of your ass ..... again. Not that anybody would be surprised by that.
 
Ships tens of thousands of illegal immigrants under cover of darkness. Scary.

😂

lol………
 
It's beyond obvious that it was a DeSantis stunt that had no concern for the welfare of the human beings he sent. Martha's Vineyard does not have the resources for that stunt but they did well and saw to it they were sent to another part of the state to be cared for. I can see that there may be frustration in southern border states, but DeSantis is just a disgusting p.o.s.

Show us the criteria the Feds use when they decide to fly plane loads of illegals to red states under the cover of darknesses.
 
Can you say "GREED!"??

The story comes from the Washington (com)Post so real Americans know it can't be trueOn Martha’s Vineyard, even the doctors can’t afford housing anymoreEssential workers can’t afford to stay on the island, putting basic services in jeopardy
The stacks of chicken broth and shelf-stable milk were dwindling as the food pantry entered the last minutes of the day and a 63-year-old woman in a Boston Red Sox mask hurried through the door.
Sharon Brown, the pantry director, greeted the woman at the front desk. As Brown logged the details she needed to collect into her system, the woman’s story unspooled: After 18 years of living on the island, her rent had suddenly shot up.

“I couldn’t believe it. Doubled!” the woman said. “I’ve never seen things this bad.”

“This summer was the worst summer ever,” Brown agreed.
What Brown didn’t say out loud was that she knew this story well. That she and her 14-year-old son had moved three times since June. That in two weeks, when school began, she had no idea where they were going to live. Finding an affordable year-round rental on the Vineyard had become next to impossible.
“Well,” Brown began, “if you know anyone who has a year-round...” Her voice trailed off.
The Red Sox fan considered for a moment before shaking her head.
“I don’t,” she said. “But I’ll keep an ear out.”

This is the part of Martha’s Vineyard most people never see. An island known for its opulence and natural beauty, a playground for presidents and celebrities, it is kept afloat by workers for whom America’s housing crisis is not an eventuality. It’s here.

. . . on an island where commuting means setting sail over temperamental waters, the Vineyard’s housing crisis is also an existential one.


“We’re hemorrhaging people who are our infrastructure, who hold this community up,” said Laura Silber, the coordinator of the Coalition to Create the Martha’s Vineyard Housing Bank, which led a successful effort this year to win support for a new fund for affordable housing. “If you don’t have municipal workers, if you don’t have teachers, if you don’t have emergency workers, if you don’t have someone to help families who are struggling and run the food bank, how does a community keep functioning?”
and here's the doctor problem
Even doctors can hardly afford to live here. Martha’s Vineyard Hospital, the largest employer on the island and home to its only emergency room, has for months been operating with a quarter of its staff jobs left unfilled. In January, CEO Denise Schepici offered 19 jobs to doctors, nurses and other workers ahead of the busy summer months, during which the island’s population swells from roughly 20,000 to 100,000 and emergency calls skyrocket.

Each was turned down.

“How do you recruit when rents are doubling from $3,000 a month to $6,000 a month, which is what happened to one of my nurses living in a one-bedroom apartment?” Schepici said.
 
QAnon manufactured hysteria, and you fell for it.
Wouldn’t you like to see the research the Feds did when selecting where to send illegals?
 
We need an Idiotic Garbage Subforum.
 
One little point that many seem to have missed: the people flown to the Vineyard or bussed to DC or NYC aren't "illegals", they are asylum seekers who after entering the US have often turned themselves in to federal authorities. Many of them already have family who are legal residents of the US.
 
The sad fact is that the Democratic party gains voters by trying to tell people they're the "Good guys". On the side of the downtrodden and destitute, bla, bla, bla.

It's all bullshit. A sales pitch from carnival barkers.
They depend on keeping the above mentioned people dependent on them.
It's a really sad situation.
And the inflation they caused by printing tons of money hurts the poor the worst.

It’s modern day slavery which is more palatable in America than 157 years ago. That’s why we suck up to China. That makes it OK 👍

Exactly. And some are sent to stay with relatives in other states, hence the hysterical twisting of facts QAnon style of saying the feds are secretly moving them at night to red states. :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

It's just not secure enough at Martha's lol.

The ultra rich likely pulled some strings and got rid of those "nasty brown people"

That means there is no Home Depot in MV for them to hang out and piss all over the place?

But it would be much better for them under your hoped for and planned confederate white ethnostate? :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:
