Though the 50 illegal aliens flown to Martha's Vineyard by Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis spent less than two days on the island, residents profess themselves "amazingly enriched by the experience."
Resident Richard Mann confessed "while we all have cared about the welfare of these unfortunate people from afar, seeing them up close was simultaneously a frightening and exhilarating experience. These Venezuelans fled from a dictatorship that voters freely elected. I thought, in a way, this is like Americans fleeing to Florida from the rotten governments of New York and Massachusetts. It makes you think."
Resident Shirley Hugest observed "they were here a very short time, but in that brief span they acquired legal representation and are now suing Gov. DeSantis for neglecting to give them the stipends to which they are entitled as human beings. Making demands of others and suing if you aren't satisfied is so American of them. We might as well make them citizens and give them the vote right now!"
Resident Ardley Sain boasted that "very tangible benefits have resulted from this episode. The GoFundMe page 'Urgent plea to help Martha's Vineyard migrants' set up by New York PR executive, Sarah Goulet raised $43,000. Now, since the Venezuelans have been evacuated to a military base on Cape Cod, this money will be given to the MV Community Foundation. So, at no cost to us, we have been enriched with another $43,000 to spend on local projects."
In related news, Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) blamed Republicans for the border crisis. "It's Republicans who keep saying the border is open," she pointed out. "If they would just shut up about it the terrorists, criminals, human-traffickers, and drug smugglers wouldn't know that there are no barriers to their intrusion. So, as I see it, leaving the door open is a lesser sin than informing people that it's open."

I imagine the Marthas getting to see an illegal alien up close and in person would be pretty exciting to them.
Well, they learned they can call he National Guard to deal with issues.
I can’t wait for the broadway musical heralding the heroism of the citizens of Martha’s Vineyard.
They enriched us. Then, when we threw their brown butts out of here, it impoverished us. But we feel good about the whole thing.
There’s only ONE migrant who is welcome at Martha’s Vineyard..
And yes, it’s because Barry “enriched” all those who lived there.
Like going to the zoo.
I hope Gov. Abbot provides more enrichment for them.
The “enrichment” probably came from yard urination and defecation.
