Wrong Eric. Any blame lays at the feet of President Biden. Thousands of people pour into the country daily and the federal government refuses to set any policy whatsoever other than the door is wide open. What's most amazing is that we have a serious humanitarian issue and the current administration has no idea what to do (anybody seen or heard from the border czar? Still no root causes). Blaming over run governors of border states who never claimed to be sanctuary havens is ignoring the problem. Wouldn't be refreshing if politics took a back seat and problem solving and bipartisanship took the fore. Obviously, I'm the naive one now.

Was this the paper to which you referred elsewhere? This is great local reporting.
This is the one i heard about on the Howie Carr Show (a Boston talk show host) this afternoon. But I read that there were wetbacks from Florida too. Anyone know if that’s true...or is it just Texas?
Cultural enrichment.
Diversity will be MV strength!
A couple other NIMBYs, paraphrased: “Bringing the illegals to our home must be some kind of crime!”

Now I see why they want a new giant school in Vineyard Haven and ASAP. I have been in tears for weeks over our taxes in VH going through the roof and worrying how to pay them, now this! I cant take much more, I senior citizen, alone and I am a 7th generation island native on a very fixed income.

What a mess our country is in… I feel bad for the people they are not the problem. It’s our poor leadership in Washington DC … Praying for change in November! And term limits for all!!

The people are the problem. They don’t have the right to be here.
I read in another article from FOX News that planeloads had also arrived from Florida, but this story appears to contradict that one.
There are a lot of fish at Martha's Vinyard. Give them each a pole, and tell them to fish for their supper. …
PLEASE,SEND MORE AND MORE AND MORE AND MORE TO MARTHAS VINYARD.
HAPPY OBAMA SEND MORE AND MORE AND MORE.

Bttt
Lots of the woke celebs have homes in the vineyard. David letterman, larry david, james taylor, spike lee, etc.
Who was that 60s hippy singer that was hangin’ with Jo Jo yesterday singing hymms to the Inflation Flatulence Act? Where is he from?
“We don’t have enough housing here”. Oh really? I guess the already high cost of housing on the island will get worse.
My comment was ‘not approved’
Hahaha. I like it, no, I’d love it. If two plane loads cause this much chaos, maybe for next time, Instead of driving during convenient daylight hours, do it in the middle of the night like the people of Texas have to deal with.
So when the Obiden administration lackeys send illegals via bus train and plane to Amarillo, or Cheyenne or Omaha, that is just fine since they have the permission of the feds.
But when a governor sends illegals to liberal enclaves like MV, then it isn’t OK?
We were on MV a month ago and there is a wonderful beach called the Inkwell, and has been seemingly set aside for blacks to swim.
So MV liberals like some minorities just not illegal minorities?
I left a comment, stating that it’s the liberal uncaring about the border states that is at the root of this.
We will see if they publish it.
Martha’s Vineyard has segregated beaches?
Oh, how sweet it is!!! All of the NIMBY Socialist Democrats are up in arms! Pitch some tents in Obama’s backyard! He’s the one who helped formulate the current debacle on our southern border!!!!
