and effective.... very effective.

Did y'all get your share yet in the Hamptons? If not... They're coming.

How racist and xenophobic

These migrants are enriching the lives of the residents of the MV residents!

Im a part time resident of Miami Beach. I've been to Cuba many times.

Cubans, like Americans, come in all races. Many Cubans are white, and you wouldn't be able to tell them apart except for the way they dress! Of course, some are black too, and many are in between.

Meanwhile, human beings are treated like political pawns being bused and flown all over the country. What a horrible people we are to allow that to happen. Abbott and DeSantis are despicable. Not to mention what they're doing is most like illegal. But it play well with their rabid bases, so that's all they care about.
Do you not remember that every time Trump tried to "fix it" the Dems blocked his every move and the media made him out to be a racist dictator?

If these human beings dont want to be treated like political pawns they shouldnt trek thousands of miles across 10 countries pretending to need asylum knowing full well the golden opportunity the current administration is granting for anyone to cross our boarders without repercussion and be given a free ride on the taxpayer's dime.

Why would it be illegal to give these people a free ride to the cities and states who declare themselves sanctuary for just such people. Seems to me they should show some gratitude.
And least you not forget Biden has been shipping these illegals to various states in the middle of the night unbeknownst to the governors and officials of those states.

I'm going to read thru this entire thread but is it true it cost 12 million dollars to send 50 illegals to Martha's Vinyard.

What will they do when they receive 3500? It should get interesting. Democrat politicians having to actually face the reality of Biden's "surge to the border" invitation for all migrants.

No. 12 million is the total budget for the entire fiscal year.

I couldn't believe it but it is true. From link, https://patch.com/massachusetts/mart...eyard-migrants -- QUOTE, my italics:

MARTHA'S VINEYARD, MA — Gov. Charlie Baker will activate the National Guard to assist the 50 men, women and children shipped Wednesday to Martha's Vineyard by Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis.

Baker said Friday morning the migrants will be transferred to a shelter at Joint Base Cape Cod in Buzzard's Bay. The Massachusetts Emergency Management Agency will coordinate food and other services for them. About 125 National Guard members will assist, Baker said.

So 125 National Guardsmen are needed to help with 50 people??? How absolutely insane is THAT??

You know what's weird? Most weekends Biden hightails it to his beach house.

His schedule doesn't show it today.

I bet there's a bus w/ illegals right now on it's way to Delaware - and Biden will stay away because of it.

I'd bet a nickle that's what's happening.
