Massachusetts Democratic Governor Maura Healey is sounding off about her frustrations with ICE’s latest operations in her state, saying she found it "disturbing" to hear about the arrests of some 40 illegal immigrants in Nantucket and Martha’s Vineyard.
ICE, working with several other federal law enforcement agencies, conducted a series of immigration enforcement operations in Nantucket and Martha’s Vineyard on Tuesday. An ICE statement said "around 40" individuals were arrested as a result of the operations, including an MS-13 gang member and at least one child sex offender.
ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations Boston acting Field Office Director Patricia Hyde said that "ICE and our federal partners made a strong stand for prioritizing public safety by arresting and removing illegal aliens from our New England neighborhoods" and that "operations like this highlight the strong alliances that ICE shares with our fellow law enforcement partners."
Healey, however, took a very different tone about the operations. The governor said that "it was very disturbing, needless to say, to wake up to that news about that activity on Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket," according to the Boston Herald.
"Local police chiefs have zero information about what’s happening in their communities. We at the state level have zero information about what’s happening in communities. And that needs to change. We need to get answers. We need to get clarification from ICE," said Healey.
The outlet also reported Healey saying the arrests raised "real questions" about whether federal immigration authorities are complying with due process.

No their Slaves
Normally, the local gendarmerie might be given a heads up, but this town couldn’t be trusted, apparently.
It’s usually pretty boring watching the grass grow, but it might be fun at Martha’s because they now have no one around to maintain their grass.
The residents there probably should have KEPT THEIR MOUTHS SHUT regarding Trump.
I thought the Martha’s Vineyard people got rid of the illegal aliens.
Who will rake their clams???
That was in September which was the end of the summer season, they wanted them gone because they didn't need them. Now it's May and they need the illegals to work for the next few months. In late September they'll be ready to kick them out again.
OH NOES who are going to mow the lawns of these rich white commies
Lucky for the Vineyarders they raided in May rather than in October when the grapes are ripe. That gives the “islandaazhs” 4 months to import replacement servants.
THE POLICE DO NOT KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON!!!!!!!
THAT IS NOT GOOD NEWS
Uh, didn’t they do everything they could to deport the illegals who were bussed there awhile back?. I think they said there wasn’t enough room for them and they weren’t equipped to handle them. Major gaslightoing going on.
nonsense, it was winter and they had tons of hotel rooms open
