According to local reports, the airport officials believed the planes were delivering corporate guys on a late-season golf retreat, before suffering the crushing disappointment that the arriving passengers were, in fact, poor people of color. ...

Those white liberals are now entertaining the world with the most amusing mass meltdown in some time. As natural hypocrites whose commitment to diversity ends where their pebbled driveways begin, they don’t like the idea of the Vineyard’s newest residents any more than Democrat mayors like Eric Adams of New York and Muriel Bowser of Washington, DC appreciate their migrants. Both mayors declared states of emergency after the arrival of only a small fraction of the illegals whom their counterparts on the Texas and Arizona borders must address on a daily basis. ...

The infuriated liberals are, however, reluctant to admit exactly where the illegals arrived. That’s understandable considering that their island idyll, where Biden won 77.6 percent of the vote, is well beyond the means of almost all their fellow Americans, “deplorables” whom they would also prefer not to see or be around. Martha’s Vineyard boasts a median home sale price of $1.35 million.

MSNBC commentator Chris Hayes, who has held book signings on the Vineyard, found it “deeply dehumanizing to fling human beings somewhere vindictively.” Somewhere? Could spelling out the “where” cast doubt on the sincerity of his convictions? And if he really believes in sanctuary destinations, how is sending migrants to an especially pleasant one for free a vindictive act? ...

The world outside left-Twitter, however, knows that the illegals have had the good fortune to land in one of the richest communities in America after having violated our country’s laws by illegally crossing its borders. Now that Vineyard liberals must endure the sight of them on their doorsteps, they and their confederates can only fly into narcissistic rage. Their shallow, priggish commitment to diversity, equity, inclusion, and open borders is exposed as a shameless fraud. ...

Vineyard residents claim to have responded with “compassion” — so much compassion that they provided basic support for less than 24 hours before begging the internet for donations from even guiltier white liberals. That’s more than a bit rich, so to speak, on an island where an estimated 63 percent of the million-dollar homes are unoccupied outside of the summer months. But this did not occur to Lisa Belcastro, coordinator of the island’s homeless shelter, who informed the local media that “at some point in time [the illegals] have to move somewhere else. …We don’t have housing for 50 more people.” That’s doubtful, but even if the summer residents don’t want to open their doors or wallets, surely no high-minded Vineyard worthies would mind if the four children reportedly in the group made generous use of their many swimming pools. What could be more compassionate? What could be more inclusive?

What, exactly, is cruel about sending the people searching for a better life to one of the wealthiest and most beautiful towns in the country? Ted Kennedy died way back in 2009, so it’s not like they have to worry about hitchhiking themselves into the wrong car. Alan Dershowitz has been effectively banned from the island, and most other coastal creatures leave post-Labor Day anyway. Not to mention that Martha’s Vineyard’s sanctuary status means if one of its new residents breaks the law, they don’t have to worry about an unceremonious deportation. Sweet perk!

Leftists are still somehow finding reason to complain.

“It’s human trafficking!” they cry, seemingly unaware that the Biden administration previously sent 70 migrant flights of its own to Jacksonville, Florida, in the dead of the night. Besides, Fox News’s Bill Melugin reports that migrants sign waivers and choose to which city they will be flown…and who wouldn’t kill for a free trip to WASP heaven? DeSantis should probably apologize in advance for all of the liberal wine moms they’ll encounter, but I’m sure it’s still a hell of a lot better than sitting in a Health and Human Services detention facility or being crammed with tens of thousands of others into a border town.

Some locals told reporters they don’t have enough housing or jobs for the approximately 50 illegal migrants who have arrived. The town’s public information officer said the situation is a “humanitarian crisis.” Martha’s Vineyard has been described as a haven for billionaires and celebrities. Certainly they can cough up some resources for the individuals they so desperately wanted in the country. Plus, the island is practically a ghost town in the winter, no? How about some of those ten-bedroom seaside mansions be opened up as shelters instead of sitting empty in the off-season? If this is how they react to just 50 migrants, imagine how they’d feel if they had to deal with the thousands who cross into border towns on the daily.

DeSantis’s team has already promised that the free trips for illegal migrants will continue. Next stop? Malibu.

Well friends, 36 hours and 300 National guardsmen later, and the MA government along, with the good Christian millionaires of Martha’s Vineyard, have ejected the 48 weary travelers from the church, bussed them off their fancy island, and detained them at a joint military base.

Ahh, is that how a Sanctuary city works?

53 migrants dying in the back of a tractor trailer didn’t cause the outrage of sending 50 to Martha’s Vineyard.

Saying America is a country of immigrants to justify illegal immigration is akin to a burglar saying “you have guests over all the time” to justify breaking into a home.

For hundreds of years, Martha’s Vineyard has suffered from the soul-crushing effects of its own whiteness. Island residents understood there was only one cure. They badly needed diversity.

Relief finally arrived from an unlikely source yesterday: Ron DeSantis.
