tumbleweed

Habebe
rank | Thu Sep 15 05:00:33 2022 TW, If your an illegal Immigrant would you rather be in a TX border town or Martha's Vineyard? Seriously? I'm sure Obama can help build a rec center to house/feed immigrants, MV can afford it, they just don't want a bunch of immigrants walking around town, you know that's true. |
Habebe
rank | Thu Sep 15 05:00:53 2022 Human trafficking involves the use of force, fraud, or coercion to obtain some type of labor or commercial sex act. |
tumbleweed
rank | Thu Sep 15 05:09:03 2022 there's no excuse for giving no notice/warning (just valuing making a point over caring one bit about their well-being) |
Habebe
rank | Thu Sep 15 05:23:41 2022 If they gave them a heads up do You think they would let them in? Its real rich for these multi millionaires on MV call themselves a sanctuary city mind you, to push for policies that increase illegal immigration because they aren't RSVPing? Do you think the crosses are calling ahead? Its the ultimate NIMBY. |
Habebe
rank | Thu Sep 15 05:24:30 2022 And yes, its about making a point. Considering Biden started building a wall, maybe its starting to work. |
murder
rank | Thu Sep 15 07:22:13 2022 "lol fucking retard" Start by shutting down all their military bases. Then move the border patrol to their northern border to intercept any illegals trying to flee the state. And if that is not retarded enough, open up immigration to any Mexican that is willing to stay in Texas. And as a welcome to the US, hand them a firearm so they'll feel welcome and fit right in. It'd be hilarious! :o) |

kargen
rank | Thu Sep 15 09:11:30 2022 "it’s a dick move sending them without any notice to places with no services set up for them" The border towns are overwhelmed and have no place for the amount of illegal immigrant crossing the border. They have for the most part run out of resources and it isn't like those crossing the border send a letter in intent first. The dick move is to act as if there is no crisis. People on the border are dying because Democrats don't like the optic. |
Habebe
rank | Thu Sep 15 10:10:07 2022 "Assuming some of them are good people, but how many of them are rapists and murderers?" Well they apparently rape 10 year olds, the left seemed more interested that the victim had to travel an hour for an abortion than about her rapist. There was also the guy who decapitated a mother in front of her kids the other day. That stuck out as noteable. |

People on the border are dying because Democrats don't like the optic" have R's introduced a solution? R's blasting out that Biden has an open border policy -encourages- more to come (they've been interviewed, that's what they've heard) & the dick move still is providing no notice to the local officials |
Habebe

Sam Adams

tumbleweed
rank | Thu Sep 15 21:12:00 2022 'remain in Mexico' wasn't a solution & if the 'wall' was so helpful they would've put effort into building it where there wasn't one instead of almost entirely replacement fencing R's did shit all to pass any legislation |
Rugian
rank | Thu Sep 15 21:30:08 2022 Habebe You have to understand. The left's narrative has no shifted to a "Republicans have no policies"* mantra, so people like tw can't give them any credit even for beliefs like border control and immigration restrictions. *by which they of course mean "Republicans have no policies THAT WE ACCEPT AS VALID, and of course we disagree with them on everything they believe in, so nothing the advocate for is valid." Democrats have become quite authoritarian and anti-democratic lately. |
Sam Adams
rank | Thu Sep 15 21:52:05 2022 "remain in Mexico' wasn't a solution" Of course it was. |
Habebe
rank | Thu Sep 15 22:11:25 2022 TW, Wasn't it democrats who pulled all the stops to limit the amount of wall built? Remain in Mexico with other policies objectively lowered illegal immigration. You can argue you didn't like it dor whatever reasons, but there I no doubt it did the achieved goal of reducing II. This is one area where Republicans clearly had an effective policy and Biden fucked it up. |
Habebe
rank | Thu Sep 15 23:14:03 2022 For perspective, MV got 50 people, literally enough that one mansion could house them all. Elpaso TX averages 1300 a DAY. |
tumbleweed
rank | Thu Sep 15 23:34:16 2022 "Wasn't it democrats who pulled all the stops to limit the amount of wall built?" no... & i'm guessing they didn't build in new areas either as not feasible or didn't want to anger people w/ eminent domain to get the land (i don't know if anyone ever explained why... & absolutely nothing said by Trump admin could be trusted) 'remain in Mexico' wasn't ended til last month, immigration been a problem continuously, so isn't a solution |
Habebe
rank | Thu Sep 15 23:52:06 2022 http://www...ration-on-border-idUSKCN1Q92YP On multiple occasions the dems did all they could to stop Trump from building a wall. How do you not remember that? Remain in Mexico is one part of a full plan. Trumps border had fewer immigrants illegally crossing. After Biden relaxed measures crossings increased. ------ So I compared the size nof Elpaso to MV, EP is about 3x the size but far poorer and has annualized 9,400 times more illegals. MV has claimed they have a housing crisis and have thumped their chest by offering them literally a continental breakfast at a cheap motel, oranges and cereal as they sleep on air mattresses on the floor. |

rank | Fri Sep 16 00:36:20 2022 sounds like they weren't even from Florida, DeSantis apparently was like 'hey, pass me some immigrants, got a funny idea' w/ indication they were lied to... plus, of course, the no excuse for not giving any notice at all so preparations could be made |
Habebe
rank | Fri Sep 16 00:47:07 2022 The Desantis/Abbot thing is confusing. Apparently FLA paid for it but they were from San Antonio. Vague stories of being promised faster working papers and she gave them food and plane tickets. |
Habebe
rank | Fri Sep 16 03:15:57 2022 Now MV is claiming they have to leave because they have a housing crisis. This would be a great time blend in Biden's push to increase low income housing in the suburbs. I would chip in $20 to help build homeless shelters and low income housing for all the new immigrants coming in. |

Habebe
rank | Fri Sep 16 05:02:38 2022 Obaminated, As I now understand it Desantis and Abbot have teamed up to share resources and coordinate shipments. These immigrants from Venezuela came across in Texas and Desantis helped cover the expense to fly them into MV while Abott bussed more to NYC & Kamalla Harris's house. I imagine Desantis doesn't want to get rid of his immigrants, Cubans & Venezuelans are notoriously anti Democrat/communist/socialist and have thriving communities im FLA. I almost started a thread just about how Desantis has reshaoed FLA and is continuing to really consolidate the state under Republicans. 1. It helps that Mara Lago acts as a Mecca attracting big name Republicans and celebrities. Its part of why people are fleeing NYC/CA for FLA. 2. He has piece by piece edged out the far left with policies. Even striking at their base the teachers union/teachers. Who is he trying to get to replace teachers? Veterans who have bachelors degrees, who will.be fr more likley to be Republican. And It doesn't stop there. I think its very likely this is all a coordinated plan by Trump and the mara lago MAGA to make FLA from a swing state to a solid Republican state. It was the lynchpin for years, if a Republican couldn't win FLA, they couldn't win the presidency, good long term strategy to lock that state down. |

It's honestly hilarious :D They're so delusional that they've purged all of the realities of Trump's positive effects for this "[Pedo Pete is doing great!]"/"[Another record harvest, comrade!]" narrative. The best is the Master Class in projection. They have people like Ken Burns and Rob Reiner saying that it's authoritarian/autocracy for a politician to send migrants places, and the common losers are saying things like, "[I can't believe they *used* migrants for political purposes! What about pathos before logos!?]".... meanwhile.. as many have pointed out and as one would have to be deranged not to see, that's what Biden has been doing.. so.. if they're correct about DeSantis here, then Biden is the *ultra*-authoritarian by comparison — having done all of the left's complaints about this Vineyard stunt to the Nth degree — in which case.. they're finally right? :D And the lolcows have been great today. I've pointed out in the totalitarians thread that this following list is where the complete fucking idiots of the left get their news from on Twitter — pure psychosis-takes: - Acyn @Acyn 291.5k followers - Jeff Tiedrich @itsJeffTiedrich — 891k - Hasan @HasanTheHun — 1.1 million (BreadTuber) - Vaush @VaushV — 211.2k (BreadTuber) - Brian Tyler Cohen @briantylercohen — 538.6k - Robert Reich @RBReich — 1.5 million - TheDailyShow / Samantha Bee / John Oliver / Jon Stewart - George Takei @GeorgeTakei — 3.3 million - David Pakman @dpakman — 230.6k - AOC @AOC — 13 million - David Weissman @davidmweissman — 340.8k - Joshua Holland @JoshuaHol — 34.2k - Dan Price @DanPriceSeattle — 737k - Occupy Democrats @OccupyDemocrats — 373k - Lindy Li @lindyli — 210.6k - Patton Oswalt @pattonoswalt — 4.7 million - David Hogg @davidhogg111 — 1.2 million - Kyle Griffin @kylegriffin1 — 1.3 million - Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff — 3.1 million - Alex Cole @acnewsitics — 109.9k - Qasim Rashid, Esq. @QasimRashid — 338.3k - Ron Filipkowski @RonFilipkowski — 508.3k - Rob Reiner @robreiner 2 million - Dash Dobrofsky @DashDobrofsky 123.7k (by no means a complete list; if we included paid DNC shills like "BrooklynDad_Defiant!" or hack politicians like Omar, Pressley, Warren, and Cori Bush, there would be no end.) These lolcows have towed the line on "trafficking", "smuggling", "autocracy", "authoritarian", "trauma", "[how could *Christians* do this??]", and weak pathos arguments about "using people".. again.. projecting to the extreme. People have pointed out that all the left had to do was feign like it was not a big deal (i.e., "[Send more! We truly love this!]"), but most abandoned that, and, in struggling for an angle, they left themselves with projection which only implicates themselves. Within the left-wing psychosis, this projection is justified via slave morality's "repressive tolerance", but everyone else got a good laugh today :D |

What's feeding 50 additional people, to those already bankrolling 100 or 200 people's welfare each year? Anyways, bigger picture, obviously these stunts by themselves aren't going to swing a whole lot of swing voters. But they may get some campaign contributions. So it's really a symptom of money influencing politics more than it should. |

As for the go fundme , this is the best part. NONE OF THAT MONEY WILL GO TO THE MIGRANTS. The municipality is keeping the funds, I swear to god. They are placing the money in the "Martha's Vineyard community fund" which is like an investment fund for the island(s) for municipality projects , it had already had 16 million dollars. This is a bigger gift than anything Trump couldnhave dreamed up. The wealthiest island in the country cried "humanitarian crisis" because after claiming they "stood with refugees" they were given 50, gave them cereal and possibly Chipotle, profited off of them by setting up a gofundme and called in the military to deport every migrant off of the island.

Fucking wealthy grifters. I mean Dr OZ, Trump & the pillow guy combined are not this grimey. This island literally houses Oprah, Reese Witherspoon, The Obamas, The Clintons, Fidelity CEO and as of 2014 had almost 50 millionaires, likley many more now.

Beth Folcarelli is the person mentioned in the $175k donations articles, a person who works at Martha's Vineyard Community Services but i'm sure Tucker purposely was trying to mislead people that no donation money going to the migrants as that's what he does (although going to the Martha’s Vineyard Community Foundation, whatever it is, would be a better use than to just a select group of moochers that will just invite more moochers) |

(especially about Jan 6th) there's no doubt he was still trying to change the outcome... none... not even denials from him, he's still trying to do it in fact (although there was never any reason to doubt it, he made it quite clear the whole time, yet you did doubt for some reason) |
