MELTDOWN: Martha’s Vineyard Libs Turn On Each other After 50 Illegals Disrupt Their Island Paradise
Incredibly, Washington, D.C. and New York are self-proclaimed sanctuary cities (for illegals) — and Illinois touts itself as a sanctuary state.
Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker (D) is promising “emergency housing” for migrants bused from Texas even as rents in Chicago have skyrocketed for residents.
Sanctuary cities? Not so much
Washington, D.C. mayor Muriel Bowser has been vociferously complaining recently about the influx of asylum-seekers utilizing homeless shelters and other city services since Texas started busing migrants to the Capital City. Bowser called the migrant issue "significant" and said she is urging a coordinated federal response to the crisis. She is further claiming that migrants are being "tricked" into boarding buses to Washington. Bowser called for a coordinated response from the Biden administration to deal with the situation, prompting Fox News host Pete Hegseth to note the irony, as that is what Republicans have been calling for since Biden took office and did away with many of Donald Trump's border security policies.
Illinois governor J.B. Pritzker recently went so far as to issue an emergency disaster proclamation after hundreds of asylum-seekers arrived in Chicago via bus from Texas.
New York City mayor Eric Adams recently said the city is at a "breaking point" due to thousands of migrants who have been sent by bus from Texas in recent weeks. Really? The city survived the pandemic lockdowns and 9/11, which knocked down the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center and killed nearly 3,000 people, but a few thousand illegal aliens are on the verge of destroying it? How does Adams think border states like, say, Texas feel, dealing with the influx of hundreds of thousands of illegals each year under the Biden administration — of the more than 5 million who have entered the United States since Biden took office?
Incredibly, Washington, D.C. and New York are self-proclaimed sanctuary cities (for illegals) — and Illinois touts itself as a sanctuary state.
They're not particularly good at being sanctuaries, are they? Busing immigrants to Florida, sending them back to Texas, etc., and publicly proclaiming: "Crisis! We can't handle them! You must deal with them, not we!" Hypocrisy, thy name is Democrat. In this case, as in others, they are decrying the inevitable results of their own policies and blaming everything on Republicans.
I can declare my abode a "sanctuary" for homeless crack addicts or fired CNN employees, but if I forcefully send them elsewhere when they show up, it doesn't mean much, does it? No, this is just another hollow gesture from a group of hypocritical, virtue-signaling empty suits — entitled wannabe heroes drunk on power.
Would that there were a sanctuary city — or state — for conservatives. And those of us sick of Democrats' prevarication, projection, gaslighting, hyperbole, hypocrisy, and hoaxes.

Democrat Gov. Pritzker Promises ‘Emergency Housing’ for Migrants as Rents Skyrocket for Chicagoans
Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker (D) is promising “emergency housing” for migrants bused from Texas even as rents in Chicago have skyrocketed for residents.
Last week, Texas governor Greg Abbott (R) started busing border crossers to the sanctuary city of Chicago after sending thousands over the last few months to the sanctuary cities of Washington, DC and New York City.
In response, Pritzker is promising migrants “emergency housing” as well as “health care screenings, the offer of COVID-19 vaccines and … additional legal resettlement assistance.”
Meanwhile, as Breitbart News has reported, Chicago mayor Lori Lightfoot has called Abbott’s sending of the migrant buses “racist and xenophobic” along with “immoral” and “unpatriotic.”
Chicago Mayor's Office / FacebookPritzker’s pledge of emergency housing for migrants comes as Chicagoans face sky-high rents and housing costs. The most recent analysis shows that Chicagoans are paying about 20 percent more on rent this year compared to last year.
Today, the average rent in Chicago is more than $2,900, which is nearly 20 percent higher than the cost of rent at the same time last year. Rents in Chicago have increased so much that tenants are forming unions to fight their landlords and the city.
Real estate investors are some of the biggest beneficiaries of mass immigration to the United States. Immigration-driven population growth, set to bring the United States population to more than 400 million by 2060, is likely to send housing prices even higher.
A 2017 study published in the Journal of Housing Economics found that “increases in immigration into a metropolitan statistical area are linked with rising rents and home prices in that metropolitan statistical area and neighboring metropolitan statistical areas.”
As legal immigration brings over a million legal immigrants to the United States annually, as well as more than a million more on temporary work visas, President Joe Biden’s administration has also implemented an expansive Catch and Release network where every month thousands of border crossers and illegal aliens are sent all over the nation to await court hearings.
In the meantime, those new arrivals need housing.
While it is unclear exactly where border crossers and illegal aliens are resettling, the administration’s Alternative to Detention (ATD) program gives insight into the level of mass immigration into each city coinciding with record-high housing costs.
In August, the Biden administration had more than 13,000 border crossers and illegal aliens in Chicago on the ATD program. In November 2020 fewer than 6,600 border crossers and illegal aliens had been sent to Chicago on the ATD program.

THE DEMOCRAT'S NAFTA OPEN BORDERS IS ALL ABOUT KEEPING WAGES DEPRESSED. IS IT WORKING???

What if America gave away highest technologies to its enemies?

On the 14th of August 2020, Politico Magazine, in a lengthy article, revealed for the first time Barack Obama’s true opinion of Joe Biden together with his warning to the people of America. During the 2020 primary Obama told a fellow Democrat: “Don’t underestimate Joe’s ability to fuck things up.”

“Joe Biden is great on immigration. I guess depends on your perspective. If you’re a human trafficker, or drug dealer, or all those migrants wearing the Biden let us in shirts, you’d give him an A-plus, plus, but the American people would give him an F. The crisis we said our border was not only entirely predictable. It was predicted. I predicted it last fall that if you campaign all year long on open borders, amnesty, and health care for illegals, you’re going to get more migrants at the border. That’s exactly what’s happened every month since the election.” SEN. TOM COTTON
There is also an impact on wages.
If impoverished migrants agree to work for less than minimum wages without benefits, the working-class citizens either suffers job redundancy or depression in wages. If they work under the table and send their untaxed remittances home, communities go underdeveloped and get a run-down look.
When some among the migrants commit violent crimes -- through car break-ins, burglaries, vandalism, fentanyl dealing, identity theft, strongarm robberies, rapes, and other violent crimes, it is the working class citizen who suffers. At times, they pay with their lives.
Holding the open-borders Democrats accountable.
The U.S. is currently in the midst of a serious border crisis since Joe Biden took over.
More than 1.7 million migrant encounters occurred in FY 2021, and more than 2 million in FY 2022. The actual number of individuals who managed to cross the border and are inside the U.S. has to be considerably higher.
So what usually occurs after these migrants are apprehended?
The Biden administration transports these migrants, including the underaged migrants, via night flights, from Texas to New York, late at night.
So what happens after they land?
The New York Post reported that the migrants are then bussed to various other states or cities such as New Jersey or Philadelphia. It isn’t beyond the realms of possibility that these migrants are dropped into swing states.
None of this is reported by the mainstream news media, obviously.
The migrants are resettled into working-class neighborhoods of these states.
Any locality has facilities and resources that are directly proportional to the number of residents, i.e., citizens, living there.
What happens when migrants inundate these localities?
They occupy parks, pavements, and other free spaces, and once again the citizens whose tax money funds the construction and maintenance of these places, suffers.
When the sanitation and waste management facilities are overwhelmed, it results in the surroundings becoming unhygienic, which will become a health hazard causing the spread of diseases.
If the migrants have highly contagious infections such as COVID-19, Monkeypox, tuberculosis, measles, leishmanosis, or any other infectious diseases, once again the citizen suffers, first in the risk of being infected, and second as health facilities meant for citizens are overwhelmed, causing them to have no option but to ignore citizens.
When some among the migrants commit violent crimes -- through car break-ins, burglaries, vandalism, fentanyl dealing, identity theft, strongarm robberies, rapes, and other violent crimes, it is the working class citizen who suffers. At times, they pay with their lives.
"Why just blame migrants, even citizens could be infected with diseases and be criminals?" is what the open border proponent will say in retaliation as they accuse you of bigotry.
Well, the problems that could emanate from citizens are the nation's problems, that doesn't mean we should import more problems.
There is also an impact on wages.
If impoverished migrants agree to work for less than minimum wages without benefits, the working-class citizens either suffers job redundancy or depression in wages. If they work under the table and send their untaxed remittances home, communities go underdeveloped and get a run-down look.
Beyond these issues, the impact of uncontrolled migration is cultural, which can hardly be gauged because the change is gradual.
The migrants may originate from cultures that have anachronistic values and practices from what is found in the U.S. Instead of adapting to their surroundings, quite a few expect everyone else to adapt to their values. Among other things, their refusal to conform results in ‘honor' killings, incestuous marriages, child marriages, foot baths, and 'press 1 for English.’
In addition to the violence and regressive practices, culture and values are the core identity of a nation and a locality that sees its erosion will soon be a lost community.
This uncontrolled influx is a long-term project of the Democrats – to inundate swing states with these migrants who, they think, will be Democrat voters. The hope is this new Democrat voter base will overwhelm the impact of existing Republican voters.
Soon elections are rendered meaningless.
The Democrats have successfully implemented this in states such as New York and California, where even a potted plant, or worse, the likes of AOC, with the letter ‘D’ after its name, is certain to win elections. In California, there are districts so packed with illegal aliens that voter turnout only amounts to about 10% of the number of people present to create the district. These are known as "dead" zones and Democrats know all about them. Large numbers of illegal immigrants also pad congressional seats for Democrats so that even if the illegals do not vote, their presence makes Democrat congressional seats possible that wouldn't otherwise be there. The contests in these states with these arrangements are not between left and right, but left, far left, and socialists.
This open border isn’t due to Biden’s misgovernance, this is an intentional and malicious act to ensure a permanence of power, both nationally, and in key states.
The Democratic leaders who support open borders never suffer the consequences of the policies they advocate.
They live in affluent localities. Their properties are surrounded by imposing walls. They also have armed bodyguards. The migrants will not be allowed even near these localities, except as maids and gardeners.
That changed in April, when Texas Gov. Greg Abbott led a unique practical experiment by transporting immigrants on a voluntary basis to "sanctuary" states run by open borders advocates. The goal was to make them accept the consequences of their words and actions.
These migrants were transported to cities such as New York, Chicago, and Washington. Some were even dropped outside the Washington D.C. home of Kamala Harris, Joe Biden's border czar who had just advised the country that the border was "secure."
The governor of Arizona also followed this move, as so did Florida's Gov. Ron DeSantis, who flew some 50 migrants in to tony Martha’s Vineyard.
As expected, the migrants haven’t been welcomed with open arms. The mayors of the cities have complained and attacked Republican governors while the wealthy liberals of Martha’s Vineyard haven’t actually opened their homes to the migrants they claim to love. Some authorities have called the National Guard.
In doing this, the governors have revealed the Democrats to be hypocrites and elitists.
But we already knew that.
So what happens next?
Doubtlessly, at least some of these migrants will be transported to detention centers away from the local mansions where they will then be re-released back to swing or Republican states.
If there has to be any long-term impact from this amusing exercise, all GOP governors much join in and keep dispatching migrants, to liberal states for as long as they can.
In time, the Democrats may block the busses at their city borders and prevent migrants from disembarking from planes.
It will be chaotic.
The only hope is that the chaos will cause local authorities compel the upper echelons of the Democrat party to fix the borders.
But the exercise in holding the open-border proponents accountable must not stop here.
When the GOP wins back the House and the Senate, they must author a bill that does the following:
- Mandates the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to resume construction of a border barrier wall along the U.S.-Mexico border that President Trump began.
- Mandates DHS to deploy tactical infrastructure and technology across all borders beginning with the southern border.
- Mandates U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to increase the number of border security agents and officers.
Now for the most crucial aspect of all this, the funding:
Yes, the taxpayers will be paying.
But the bill must have any or ideally both of the following clauses:
- Mandate the transportation of migrants to liberal states whose governors, senators, representatives, and mayors advocate open borders.
- All lawmakers who do not vote for the bill, i.e., who advocate open borders, must be compelled to pay an additional tax to fund infrastructure in these liberal cities that will accommodate the newly arrived migrants.
- In addition to accommodation, these lawmakers must also contribute to funds for law enforcement, hospitals, and schools for migrants.
- This tax must not be restricted to lawmakers, but also to governors, mayors, and presidents who are proponents of open borders.
This will be an ideal way for the Democrats to show they really care for the migrants.
The Democrats will have two choices, either vote for border security and pay nothing, or not vote for border security and fund the costs of migrants.
Let’s see how they vote.
Will a bill such as this ever be authored?
Very unlikely.
But one sincerely hopes some among the lawmakers at least try.
VISUALIZE IMPEACHMENT
AND DEPORTATION TO GITMO
Other policies include a shift away from prioritizing the deportation of illegal immigrants. The Free Beacon last year reported on deportations plummeting by 90 percent under the Biden administration, meaning fewer illegal immigrants are now removed from the country than at any point in decades.
