Sanctuary in Name Only

Mayors, governors, senators, and representatives from cities and states that are far from the border have long labeled anyone who wants a border wall to be racists.  The sitting vice president has repeatedly declared that the border is secure and the fact that a couple busloads of illegal immigrants just arrived near her residence has not changed that view.  Governor Ron DeSantis raised the ante by chartering a flight to Martha's Vineyard for 50 undocumented migrants.  The very people who virtue signal by stating that no person is illegal are now crying foul.  They don't have the resources to deal with all these people.  Oh, really?  Thousands are coming over the Texas border on a daily basis, but home of the super wealthy Martha's Vineyard is unable to cope with 50.  Similar caterwauling has been heard from New York City, Washington DC, and Chicago.  What happened to the compassion that dripped from every proclamation about the border?  Yeah, it was great as long as it wasn't in your backyard.
