What happened? Just a year ago, official said Martha's Vineyard should be 'haven' for illegals

Now residents demand immigrants be removed to somewhere else

Amid the new war that has broken out just this week over Joe Biden's decision when he took office to trash all of President Trump's border security measures like Remain-in-Mexico and the border wall construction, an interesting detail has emerged.

Martha's Vineyard, that expensive locale where houses cost upward of a million dollars and residents are wealthy enough to fund them, reacted with demands that 50 illegal aliens delivered to that location by a program set up by Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis to have other parts of the U.S. share the burden of millions of illegals arriving annually, that they leave.

Immediately.

Buses were summoned and within a few hours, they were taken away.

But a report from Fox News points out that only a year ago, Keith Chastinover, a progressive county commissioner for Dukes County, where Martha's Vineyard is located, said the highly exclusive area should be a haven for illegals.

In fact, he said he would "love" to see that happen.

"I would love Martha’s Vineyard to become a haven for new immigrants to this country, but Senator Cruz has no idea what he’s talking about regarding a 'border crisis,'" Chatinover said at the time.

He was expressing his own liberal spin while responding to Cruz' push for a bill that would make Democrat-led areas like Martha's Vineyard ports of entry to processing migrants.

When those few dozen immigrants actually arrived, state Rep. Dylan Fernandes, a Democrat, claimed the move was "incredibly inhumane."

He, like other Democrats there, insisted that the migrants would need to be moved to an "off-Island location."

Unfortunately, we might be at a point where everyone who can be convinced by facts has been. Sure, we all know some crazy middle-aged woman school teacher type who is still doing the “so, Trump did x, y, or z,” but there aren’t that many of those people, and they will not ever change. The Left will just cheat in elections. This stunt (and it is a really good one) of sending illegals to places like DC and Martha’s Vineyard would have made an impact maybe 12 years ago. Does it matter now?

Oh OK. Then they wouldn’t mind 15,000-25,000 more?

What I love most about this is these sanctimonious Martha's Vineyard liberals have been laughed at unceasingly by millions for their hilariously-obvious hypocrisy.

Liberals hate being laughed at, almost as much as they hate having to admit they were wrong about literally anything.

Lara Logan on Bannon's War Room explains the globalist plan to bring 100 million illegal aliens into the U.S. in order to topple U.S. sovereignty.

Lara Logan: Biden's Invasion at the Southern Border is Next Step to Global Government

They call it the "push-pull" strategy. Push them out of Latin America and pull them into the U.S..

What happened?

Nothing, they never meant it.

They don’t think about anything accept saying the “right things” to maintain lucrative political connections, get the invites and feel superior to everyone else.

Howie Carr played an interview from Spanish-language Telemundo, where the MV Islander said, “I’d like that they’d just leave”.

Loved every second of it. There’s a longer version I watched this morning on YouTube.

There’s more? Yesterday I saw a censured version someone here linked to and it was shorter than that Rumble version. Now you tell me there’s more? lol

Carlson is really killing it lately. As in the last few months at least. I fully expect the Pedo Joe regime to strike out at him in some manner and probably soon.

Does it matter now?

It's like Doolittle's raid on Tokyo in '42: it didn't change the situation militarily, but it helped Americans feel like they had a chance, and Japan to realize it was not the invulnerable society it thought it was. Now let's pray that the midterms are our Midway, with a red wave overwhelming and sinking the Left.

In short, this is a cold war, and our present SCAP and CINCPAC are Abbott and DeSantis.

That seems like a very reasonable take and a pretty great historical reference. The midterms will tell us a good bit about where things stand in a number of ways.

The time has come.
The time is now.
Write a letter to the local paper.
Tell about what has happened here.
List the names of some of the most prominent people living there.
End your letter with:
We see you...
And we are laughing at you.

That will wrinkle more than a few feathers.
Especially if tons of small town papers print it.
