Biden Deploys 20,000 National Guard Troops To Defend Home From Incoming Migrants

WILMINGTON, DE — Upon hearing that Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is sending another group of migrants to his mansion in Delaware, President Joe Biden authorized a mobilization of 20,000 National Guard troops to defend his home from the invaders.

"This migrant invasion of my sacred personal 10,000 square-foot mansion is a cruel and evil threat to democracy itself and I will not allow it," said Biden in a statement. "Everyone knows that migrants belong in one of three places: a tent on the street, a military base, or the voting booth. Come on, man! Blurgflebbit!"

They don't like them arriving unannounced?

Announce it. As soon as the plane takes off.

Oh, wait. Someone is already doing that.

🔥 One of the dumb excuses Martha’s Vineyard locals used to justify why the 51 illegal immigrants couldn’t stay on their idyllic little island was that is just no work for them, what with the summer rush over and everything. For example, Charles Rus, music director at St. Andrew’s, the episcopal church in Edgartown where the illegal immigrants were temporarily housed, flatly told the Epoch Times there were no jobs on the island for the migrants, so. Buh bye.



But the Epoch Times did a little digging — a very little digging, it didn’t take much — and found jobs all over the place, in scads and buckets. For instance, there are over 50 help wanted ads in classified section of the Vineyard Gazette alone, including jobs for laborers, custodians, landscapers, bakers, cooks, dishwashers, technicians, library assistant, and several retail positions.

Epoch’s reporters also called the Martha’s Vineyard YMCA and discovered several more open positions, including housekeepers, “ice arena” workers, and a front desk administrator. The YMCA shares a building with a local charity, Martha’s Vineyard Community Services, which itself needs a “bilingual” administrative assistant.

Bilingual.

Although the Community Services charity almost certainly receives state and/or federal funding, Epoch couldn’t find anyone in the generously-appointed offices when the reporter went by to ask about the job opening.

Even more appalling, Epoch’s reporter discovered that the island’s local supermarket chain, Stop & Shop, has empty worker dormitories — where the summer overflow workers live during the busy summer tourist season. Obviously the immigrants could have been housed there — and Stop & Shop is even hiring for several open positions right now.

Martha’s Vineyard is one of eight “sanctuary cities” in Massachusetts and — up till about 10 minutes ago — regularly “celebrated diversity.”

Not any more, apparently.

I'm sadly incapable of grasping how Martha's Vineyard residents think that welcoming them for a few hours before kicking them the hell off their island is actually a good thing. They virtue signal all over creation about welcoming diversity and being a home for immigrants and a sanctuary place - and at their first opportunity - they punt. And then congratulate themselves.

That Biden was cruel for allowing in asylum seekers in accordance with the law.

Then spending federal money to help them get to places they ahd family and could be tracked and checked up on until their trial date.


You're awfully quiet. :snacks:

DeSantis, whether he knows it or not, is taking a moral step to teach a vital lesson to all left-wing countries and their foolish citizens who are guilty of the worst form of political calumny. You cannot have your cake and eat it too. You cannot vote to nationalize and exorbitantly tax the brains and minds of your best citizens—which is what it means to nationalize any private industry—and then scream and flee in terror when your victims withdraw the products of their brain – their capital – and leave you to squander in your own ineptitude.

I saw this as a child growing up in Jamaica under the socialist regime of Michael Manley, who nationalized industry and taxed the decency out of remaining entrepreneurs who then fled to Canada and the United States. Jamaica was left with a massive brain drain and an unskilled labor force unable to operate and/or invest in the hollowed-out and gutted industries that went unmanned for years. Eventually the people voted Manley and his regime out of power for a political leader who advocated for and implemented a more market-oriented political economy.

Socialists—and anyone who votes for a socialist is a socialist—are parasites. They have already answered the question: “What exactly is your ‘fair share’ of what someone else has earned?” with a rhetorical gesture—an inverted moral greed of the worst type: a sense of unearned entitlement to the earnings (the thinking) of others.

Any citizen from another country who thinks and endorses a political system that functions on the premise that a human mind can be nationalized and its products redistributed for public consumption has no moral business in the United States where each person is responsible for his or her own fate and destiny. Any refugee or asylum seeker fleeing from a system in which he or she played some role in upholding the belief that the products of one’s efforts belong to the community; that the state and society have a moral and financial responsibility to care for other people’s children; and that the most successful and productive people should be the most penalized precisely for their productive virtues—deserves to be sent back to where they came from and to learn how and why their moral imperative is to start a capitalist revolution in their own country.

Sorry, There’s No ‘Smoking Gun’ In Martha’s Vineyard, Just A Lot Of Left-Wing Condescension





Now comes Judd Legum with an unintentionally hilarious story for Popular Information purporting to be a “smoking gun” proving that the Martha’s Vineyard migrants were lied to — and maybe even kidnapped! It’s probably the purest possible distillation of the condescending left-wing notion of confused and helpless migrants being led around by the nose by cynical and evil Republicans.

Legum opens his breathless reportage with this bombshell: “Popular Information has obtained documentary evidence that migrants from Venezuela were provided with false information to convince them to board flights chartered by Florida Governor Ron DeSantis (R). The documents suggest that the flights were not just a callous political stunt but potentially a crime.”

And what is this documentary evidence? A brochure outlining refugee and immigrant benefits and assistance available in Massachusetts, which is a sanctuary state with multiple state programs designed to assist refugees and migrants. Legum says he got the brochure from Lawyers for Civil Rights (LCR), a Boston-based legal organization that’s supposedly representing 30 of the migrants, who presumably got it from Florida officials before they boarded the flight to Martha’s Vineyard.

According to Legum, though, the benefits described in the brochure are only available to refugees who have been referred by the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees and authorized to live in the U.S. They’re not for illegal immigrants who have claimed asylum, like the Martha’s Vineyard migrants. Therefore, he says, they were misled. Lawyers for LCR are now asking the Massachusetts attorney general to open an investigation. “The allegation that the migrants were misled is legally significant,” writes Legum. “It would mean that the flights were not just heartless, but potentially criminal.”

But no matter how much activist reporters like Legum might wish that DeSantis had somehow committed a crime by offering illegal immigrants a voluntary free flight to Massachusetts, it just isn’t so. The 50 or so migrants who landed in Martha’s Vineyard last week were never promised employment or anything else, they were simply told that sanctuary states like Massachusetts, unlike Florida and Texas, have programs and assistance available to refugees and migrants, which is true.

The brochure in question, for example, contains a list of community services and churches that have migrant assistance programs. The first one listed is a link for the immigration page of a website called First Stop Martha’s Vineyard, which is an online reference guide to the island’s social services and programs. It includes information about the Massachusetts Office for Refugee and Immigrants, among other programs.

The Day Democrats Felt Personally Attacked By Having To Care For Illegal Immigrants



Burns reemphasized that point, saying, “This is about punishing political enemies.”

It’s a shocking admission considering that up until then, leftists had proudly worn their bleeding hearts on their sleeves, typically accompanied by those obnoxious “In this house, we believe…” yard signs.

What changed? Nothing in terms of the actual problem. There are still hundreds of thousands of migrants dumping themselves into the care of American taxpayers every month. Over the past year, there have been upwards of 2 million aliens arrested by U.S. Customs and Border Protection. Other than July, every month of 2022 has seen tens of thousands more migrants than last year.

This is the case even though Kamala Harris — yes, the Kamala Harris — told migrants venturing to the U.S., “Don’t come.”

Well, they came. And despite pleas from Democrats in southern border districts pleading for the Biden administration to do something to stop or even just slow the chaos, leftists everywhere else told them to shut up and show some compassion. After all, Latin America’s destitute were only coming here for a better life. Is it too much to ask that the taxpayers of Texas, Arizona, and Florida provide that for them?

Jonathan Turley Throws Cold Water on 'Migrant Lawsuit' Against DeSantis, Florida




But upon further inspection, the lawsuit only included three pseudonymous names (out of the 48 who were flown to Massachusetts) along with an immigrant civil rights group as the plaintiffs, stating that they were acting on behalf of the other migrants:

The firm Lawyers for Civil Rights, in conjunction with the migrant-led nonprofit Alianza Americas, filed the suit on behalf of the “Vineyard migrants and all similarly situated people who are fraudulently induced to travel across state lines by DeSantis and the State of Florida,” the group told NPR in an email.
[…]
The migrants say they were not told about their final destination, but were promised a chance at jobs and a better life.
Alianza Americas’ Executive Director Oscar Chacòn said that DeSantis used the migrants to “advance a hate-filled agenda.” “That is why we have taken the steps to legally challenge what we view as not only a morally reprehensible action, but what we believe is also illegal,” he said.

If one reads between the lines, it sure sounds like this lawsuit was pushed for by the activist Boston-based lawyers more so than being initiated by the three unnamed migrants as a way to punish DeSantis, but that’s pure speculation on my part.

George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley, who is always a must-read when these issues crop up, examined the details of the lawsuit and found its claims sorely lacking, and noted that the claims “face[d] considerable legal barriers” based on the available evidence so far:


The lawyers are alleging that the migrants were mislead or defrauded in going to Martha’s Vineyard. The flight is portrayed as “designed and executed a premeditated, fraudulent, and illegal scheme centered on exploiting this vulnerability for the sole purpose of advancing their own personal, financial and political interests.”
[…]
However, most of these claims are highly dubious and will require substantially more factual support to survive a threshold challenge. The first challenge will be to show that the waiver was secured by trick or fraud. The consent form – available in English and Spanish – states:
“I agree to hold the benefactor or its designed representatives harmless of all liability arising out of or in any way relating to any injuries and damages that may occur during the agreed transport to locations outside of Texas until the final destination in Massachusetts.”
[…]
The lawyers are citing a brochure to support the claim of fraud. The brochure reads “Massachusetts Refugee Benefits” with instructions for how to change an address with U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), including USCIS Form AR-11, “Alien’s Change of Address Card.”
[…]
The state says that the brochure takes material from the state website for refugees and migrants.

It's an island. By definition it has limited space and resources.
Is it really that hard to understand?

Well let's see they were lured under false pretenses and lied to about where they were going.

Sounds like Desnatis is guilty of human trafficking of immigrants.

Pretty dumb to play with peoples lives for poltical gain

It's an island. By definition it has limited space and resources.
Is it really that hard to understand?
The island now has a year-round population of about 17,000 people in six towns; in summer, the population increases to 200,000 residents, with more than 25,000 additional short-term visitors coming and going on the ferries during the summer season.

Are you saying they can't handle 50 people in off-season?
