I learned a new acronym this week. NIMBY. Not in my back yard. I actually started my Friday off with a laugh out loud this morning listening to the white WASP director of an emergency shelter talk about how “the vineyard” is being overrun because Florida governor DeSantis sent 50 people there. Oh, the horror!! Seriously? I have dealt with many hurricanes in my lifetime on the Texas Gulf Coast, and my first thought was, “Wait a minute! This is an island! They should be equipped for this because they should be equipped for storms.” You can’t handle 50 people? And you are moronic enough to go on television to admit that?
But “the vineyard” is Martha’s Vineyard, and they are likely only equipped for certain emergencies like running out of chardonnay. They should be equipped for climate emergencies. I mean, by all accounts, the idyllic island should be underwater by now because of all of us carbon-producing meat eaters driving the planet to catastrophic destruction. But the vineyard isn’t underwater. Certainly, the Obamas multi-million house is not underwater either.
Are the residents of the vineyard used to immigrants? Of course they are. Let’s face it. Immigrants (and poorer people) come on the ferry every day to work in Martha’s Vineyard, but they leave at night because they can’t afford to live there. As the snarky Greg Gutfeld said on his show last night, “Someone’s gotta pick the grapes in the Vineyard.” Sad. Rude. But true. Most of the vineyard residents most assuredly consider immigrants as “the help.” You know I’m right.
Yet this shelter director talked about the fact that “they” cannot possibly house these migrants because Martha’s Vineyard already has a housing crisis. Yes, of course you do. It’s too swanky for most people to even afford to live there. The average home price is $1.35 million. Too rich for my blood, as my grandma used to say.
Are these people coming across our border pawns? Of course they are, and it is very sad. I’m cynical though, and not everyone coming across the border is an innocent victim just looking for work. C’mon man. Much of this is optics, and these people know exactly what they’re doing. Look closely at the footage. Nice clothes, nice shoes, clean and not a speck of dirt. No water bottles in sight in a summer of sweltering 100+ degree weather? C’mon man. We are in an information war. Are you sure that what you are seeing is real?
Some people are certainly pawns. Who is using them as pawns? Is it the people opening the border: Biden, Harris, Mayorkas? Or is it the people reacting to having to deal with plane after plane and bus after bus of people in this country illegally? Hint: it’s the first one. With numbers at 1.9 million crossing the border since October 2021, this is not even comparable to 50 people in Martha’s Vineyard. It’s not comparable to the 900 people per day that El Paso is trying to deal with. Not even close. Which is why I humbly invite the Vineyardians to respectfully go pound sand.
This is a war. They’ve opened the border because they are actively at war with their own people, US, the American people. They are trying to break us. It won’t work. As my grandma used to say, let’s call a spade a spade. So let CNN and Ken Burns prattle on about how this situation is just like the holocaust. It is ridiculous, and most normal people see right through it. Let washed up Star Trek actor George Takei compare Abbott and DeSantis to Hitler. Why do we care what George says? Why does his voice take precedence in our society today? That is the real question. It’s all noise. Treat it as such.
We are at war, and war requires brilliant tactics. It is unfathomable to many that neither Biden nor Harris has visited the border, but I am not even phased by it because the open border is by design. Our “elected” leaders want to overrun and ruin this country. What’s not clear, especially at this point?
So when Kamala Harris cackles that the border is closed, send people to her doorstep. Is there a problem here? I don’t see one. People on the east coast — the vineyard included — prattle on about the immigrant situation, but they don’t have to deal with it directly. Put your money where your mouth is. My grandma also said that.
How many of the Vineyardians are going to the shelter to help cook in the soup kitchen? How many of those lawyers are offering pro bono immigration law advice? Probably not many. Instead, they are most likely cloistered in their homes, clutching their pearls and swizzling bourbon, complaining about the insurrection on their idyllic island. You know I’m right.
And Gateway Pundit has validated my claims. Despite signs purporting the sanctuary status of the island (e.g. “hate has no business here”, etc. etc.) less than 36 hours after the migrants arrived, they are being bused out. THAT’s what all those lawyers have been doing—lighting up the phone lines calling in favors to their well-placed friends in government. And 125 Massachusetts National Guard troops have been called in to help. So that is a more than 2:1 guard:migrant ratio? Overkill? Methinks so. “Make sure they didn’t take my good silver,” yells the woman in the $2 million beachfront home.
The National Guard will help transport the migrants to military base Joint Base Cape Cod. (But THIS isn’t Hitleresque, oh no!) And all of this happened so fast because, you know, NIMBY.
