Remember what happened after Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis sent a few dozen illegal aliens to the wealthy liberal haven of Martha's Vineyard? The illegals were all sent elsewhere within 48 hours, but according to CNN they provided an enriching experience for residents of the island:
Martha’s Vineyard had not been expecting them but a small army of activists mobilized to help people who had become pawns in the contentious debate over America’s broken immigration system.
DeSantis’ move was sharply denounced by the White House, Democratic officials and immigration lawyers who vowed legal action on grounds, they said, the migrants were lured north with promises of work, housing and help with immigration papers and ultimately misled about their final destination.
Florida’s governor denied the migrants did not know where they were going. He said they had signed a waiver and had been provided with a packet that included a map of Martha’s Vineyard. “It’s obvious that’s where they were going,” he said, adding that the move was voluntary.
Lisa Belcastro, winter shelter coordinator for the Harbor Homes nonprofit, was close to tears about an hour after the migrants left the island on Friday, with volunteers beginning to clean up the parish house and church hall where the newcomers slept.
They "enriched" the Vineyard so much they were shown the door in less than two days.
However, the insane virtue signaling from some libs on the island continues, like this one:

"It could be any of us next"?
My response to that:
Martha's Vineyard lib: It could be any of us next to be deported.

This takeaway sums it all up:
So living in the Vineyard makes you stupid? https://t.co/M3Bdv9G3sB

It must, because look at the kinds of people that woman is trying to help avoid ICE arrest:
Immigration enforcement operations carried out Tuesday on the Massachusetts islands of Nantucket and Martha's Vineyard resulted in about 40 arrests, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) noted in a press release provided to Fox News Digital.
The effort marked a major win for public safety — a documented MS-13 member as well as "at least one child sex offender" were among those arrested, the release indicates.
"ICE officers and FBI, DEA and ATF agents worked together to arrest a significant number of illegal alien offenders which included at least one child predator," ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations Boston acting Field Office Director Patricia H. Hyde, noted, according to the release. "Our partners in the U.S. Coast Guard facilitated a safe and efficient transport of the alien offenders off Nantucket and Martha’s Vineyard, ensuring the safety of the residents of those communities."
When you hate Trump so much you're trying to help keep the authorities from arresting and deporting rapists and child predators you've completely lost your mind.
