    1. @John Labus I’ll move to Florida, just to have a government that really help the community, not like California that we get screw

  1. I laughed so much that someone in affluent Martha’s Vineyard complained FIFTY persons cant be tolerated there…unable to cope lol

    1. They are not complaining for the immigrants, it is the way De Santis is doing it! Using people! So glad to see how quick the people got United and took care of their brothers and sisters, there is hope! God bless them!โค

  2. Excellent work by the citizens of Marthaโ€™s Vineyard. Keep up the great work supporting the immigrants you brought into this country.

    1. Yeah they shipped em off. What they did is equivalent to giving a homeless person lunch and a shower to get them out of there. Theyโ€™re essentially being proactive. Itโ€™s largely not compassion.

    2. @GBWM2021 Exactly. A friend had 2 Airbnb places by the end of M.V. near where they found pieces of Kennedy’s plane. Same type people. Vote D but in no way wanted to live near or work near anyone but those who were like themselves. Very sad.

    3. @john roeser That would overload the airport… that is trying to ship them all back out๐Ÿคฃ Here’s a burger ๐Ÿ” back on the plane.

  3. Spread the ๐Ÿ’• love. I hope they are good people who are grateful for their new upper middle class living environment. The whole country must bear the burden- not just Texas Florida, Arizona California and New Mexican. Equal care and distribution in every state.

    1. @Cari WaldickHey that’s great and I commend you for that but what if there was 10 more families right next to them, would you take them too? Have you seen people on skid row in California it goes down for about 50 city blocks. How do you think they feel that our Country caters to others before them? Would you step over your own child to give a stranger your last morsel of food?

    2. @B Bodziak He should take that money and help the homeless he already has in Florida. We need more shelters and rehabilitation centers around the Country to help the hundreds of thousands that are being forgotten about right now.

  4. GOD BLESS GOV DESANTIS!!! keep sending them in lets come together as a country and stop putting all the pressure on Florida and texas!!!

    1. @Mohamed Trevino itโ€™s gonna be a great time In this beautiful country where we all come together and help the migrants!

  5. Thank you, Marthaโ€™s Vineyard, for being Americaโ€™s Poland and graciously welcoming these refuges. And thank you, Rep. Gonzales, for your efforts toward practical, viable solutions.

  6. The same people who advocated for illegal immigration should be ready to open their hearts to what they wanted the border states to deal with.

  7. Marthaโ€™s Vineyard seems beautiful and accepting. Looks like they are ready to accept thousands more. Please send more.

  8. It’s so heartwarming to see diversity and inclusion spread to places like Martha’s Vineyard! There looks like plenty of room for more immigrants to enjoy to beauty of this place!!!

    1. โ€‹@stlion I agree – all the immigrants should go to where the loving Democrats live and have long happy lives in harmony together!

    2. That kindness was on full display with a military escort away from the people who arenโ€™t expected to put up with this. Thatโ€™s for the other people.

  9. This was wonderful kindness from DeSantis. Martha’s vine is beautiful and offers these people lots of housing options and job opportunities. ๐Ÿ‘

    1. @Barry Modeste yeah because they had court dates for their asylum. Read about what they told them. Some had court dates on Monday and they were lied to you troll.

    2. @Barry Modeste They were taken 20 miles away to a military base where they can be properly housed and have sanitary facilities for the entire group, genius.

    3. @Robert K. Ok your entitled to your opinion. I do not see any comparison with the Nazis. Wish someone could relocate me to Martha Vineyard! ๐Ÿ˜Š

  10. What a beautiful gesture to share the magic of immigration with parts of our nation that seldom have the opportunity to participate.

  11. Keep it coming, theyโ€™ll have great opportunities, great schools for the kids, best of communities to live. Thank you MV!

  12. California, Texas and several other states are bursting with millions of immigrants. Thanks for going off the charts to handle 50 people. I live in California and we are bursting at the seams. I am very happy to know that others will be sharing the burden, yes burden of severe overpopulation, crime etc….stop crying and help out for a change!

    1. You’re exaggerating about the crime, now in days we have crime allover the country but I do think overpopulation has affected housing and jobs add this to the homeless the implants from outer states.

  13. Iโ€™m appalled to hear that the poor migrants have been shipped out of Marathas Vineyard. They have so much wealth there, this could have even an amazing opportunity for them. They need to roll up their sleeves to help these people not eject them.

  14. Living in Marthaโ€™s Vineyard is the โ€œAmerican Dreamโ€โ€ฆ. Good to see it happen for so many deserving illegal migrants ๐Ÿ™
