Point is, Dems AND Republicans can't do shit about the border because they don't want to/aren't listening to people who do give a shit.
But stunts like this don't help.

Exactly like eastern provinces do to BC. Welfare bums are given a 1 way bus tickets to BC courtesy of the taxpayers in their province, but for some reason we are not allowed to ship them home. So guess who gets stuck with the lifetime welfare bill?
Or for those who claim CNN bias...
DeSantis says he's 'protecting Florida' by sending migrants to Martha's Vineyard
"We are not a sanctuary state, it's better to be able to go to a sanctuary jurisdiction," he said. "We will help facilitate that transport for you, so you can go to greener pastures."www.wesh.com
"Aid workers and officials in Martha's Vineyard said 50 people arrived there, including women and young children, and they had been told they would be taken to a place that could give them a place to stay and jobs.
One church leader who helped said no one there had any notice ahead of time, but they are doing what they can to help the migrants.
"Many of them were just too overwhelmed. We just started feeding people outside when they were standing outside because everybody was just really hungry. And then moved them inside as soon as we could," Barb Rush with St. Andrews Episcopal Church said."

So a tale of two Republicans, two Governors... and easy to tell which one actually has human compassion and which one is a deadbeat piece of garbage.
And for those who are all "Biden is doing so horrible about the border issue!"
Bit o facts (damn those facts)
First, Trump:
Trump's Promise of Millions of Deportations Is Yet to Be Fulfilled
Before entering office, President Donald Trump promised to deport millions of unauthorized immigrants. Yet despite his general successes in creating a more restrictive and punitive immigration system, this goal has eluded his administration. So-called “sanctuary” policies implemented by state...www.migrationpolicy.org
Then Biden:
Facts on deportations during Biden’s first 29 days
An Instagram post takes aim at President Joe Biden’s immigration promise to halt deportations during his first 100 dayswww.politifact.com
https://www.migrationpolicy.org/article/biden-one-year-mark (of note " Under the Title 42 policy (referencing the section of the U.S. code where it derives its authority), the Biden administration has carried out 990,000 expulsions, more than double the Trump administration’s 460,000, partly because the number of migrants arriving at the U.S.-Mexico border has spiked.")
Biden has deported nearly as many Haitians in his first year as the last three presidents - combined
Biden has expelled nearly as many Haitians in 12 months (20,200+) as were deported during the previous 20 years (22,000-23,000)*** under three different presidents. Indeed, Biden’s administration has likely expelled far more: In addition to these official removal numbers, another estimated 8,000...www.quixote.org
So this means... what?
Seems DEMS are harder on immigration and the border than even Trump was. It's just Trump had no problem ripping families apart and not giving a shit, while Dems will deport them all together (most of the time).
But BOTH sides are just as horrible and apparently not wanting to deal with the issue what so ever.
I brought that up earlier. But, y'know how those two feel about facts that don't suit their narrative
True. What they should have done is put them on a bus to Mexico. Not in the country legally? Out you go.
Well, facts in general.I brought that up earlier. But, y'know how those two feel about facts that don't suit their narrative
Good on the non-millionaires for stepping up donating & helping until the National Guard at the Governor’s request got these 50 people of the island within 44 hours.

Opinion: What Martha's Vineyard tells us about immigration | CNN
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis' move to send migrants to Martha's Vineyard is not the first to bring the immigration fight to the elite summer destination, says Daniela Gerson. She has chronicled how Brazilians began arriving in the '90s and how some still call it home.

"The minute even a small fraction of what those border towns deal with every day is brought to their front door, they all of a sudden go berserk and they're so upset this is happening," DeSantis said Friday of blue states. "It just shows you, you know, their virtue signaling is a fraud."
Illegal Immigrants Get the Boot After One Day on Martha's Vineyard
Just one day after Gov. Ron DeSantis (R., Fla.) flew roughly 50 illegal immigrants to Martha's Vineyard, Massachusetts is giving them the boot.
According to Florida, these people are being told where they are going & asked if they want to go. Most of the illegals say yes and get on the bus. NO ONE IS FORCING THEM to go. But of course, Florida is being accused of lying because once the people got to where they were going, they decided - oh, I didn't want to go here so I was lied to. Ya, sure.
I find it interesting that Biden & ilk are given the benefit of a doubt (when they lie consistently) and if there's a Republican who makes a comment, they're automatically lying. The hypocrisy is incredible.
Really? First I've heard of...
Oh wait, you mean just Ontario and Quebec.
Okay then.
But, IMO, if either province is sending immigrants to BC to deal with on a lie, sure, that's shitty to do. More than. Fuck both places, they should deal with them.
That you are missing the point of this though isn't surprising much.
Klein wasn't dealing with illegal immigrants, he was getting rid of crackheads.
That is the point. Of course it went right over your head. Again.
That sounds like a Mexico problem, not a US problem. They got into Mexico, and across Mexico somehow.
They should have build a wall and have the Guatemalans pay for it.
