Left losing it on illegals 'deported' to their jurisdictions
...
The hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens the Biden administration caught and released had to go somewhere. Most of them were released in Texas and Arizona. To say that those small border cities like McAllen, Texas, aren’t prepared for the massive influx of humanity would be an understatement. So Abbott and DeSantis decided to pull a political stunt and bus the illegal aliens someplace they were sure they’d be welcome: sanctuary cities like New York, Washington, and Chicago.
Abbott and now DeSantis have exposed the reeking hypocrisy of the left using this political gambit. And judging by the leftist meltdown underway, they know it and are hysterical about it.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) — always good for a hysterical rant against Republicans — called the busing of illegals a “crime against humanity.” She also got her history all wrong — as usual.
...
“A Sadistic Immigration Stunt,” sniffs The Atlantic‘s Tom Nichols. “Let’s Call DeSantis’s Migrant Stunt What it is — Kidnapping,” bleats The Nation‘s Elie Mystal.
Jonathan Turley tried to inject a little sanity into the discussion. “No, Transporting Undocumented Migrants to Martha’s Vineyard is not ‘Literally Human Trafficking.'” Hillary Clinton made that suggestion.
Laughably, the Washington Post published an op-ed seriously trying to make a case that the flight to Martha’s Vineyard was “Reverse Freedom Rides” because some segregationists had flown some black families to Martha’s Vineyard 60 years ago to “get back” at the Yankees for the Freedom Rides the previous summer. The only problem with that is that DeSantis is not a segregationist. But otherwise… whatever.
My favorite headline has to be from the Miami Herald: “With shameful Martha’s Vineyard stunt, DeSantis dishes out cruelty with a smirk.” I guess they think DeSantis is some kind of Simon Legree, twirling his mustache with an evil cackle as the poor illegal aliens are… what? Treated with respect, dignity, and compassion?
There is no “cruelty.” There is no “crime against humanity.” There is only leftist hysteria because Ron DeSantis and Greg Abbott have stolen a march on the left and have them desperate and on their back foot trying to respond effectively.
Voluntary rides to liberal states would only be cruel if those states were cruel to their newcomers. At any rate, if these people have a gripe it is with Biden and not DeSantis and Abbott. Biden is the one whose dereliction of duty is allowing the invasion of the southern border.
