What’s the distinction between Massachusetts and California?
In California, they name out the Nationwide Guard to harass and hamper unlawful immigrants.
In Massachusetts, they name out the Nationwide Guard to hug and assist them.
It should be an East Coast/West Coast factor.
It’s the identical U.S. Nationwide Guard, after all, solely they’re on reverse sides of deporting unlawful immigrants.
In California, they assist get them in another country. In Massachusetts, they assist hold them in.
In California, they shield state and federal buildings from pro-illegal immigrant demonstrators. In Massachusetts, they shield resorts and motels from anti-illegal immigrant demonstrators.
In California, the troopers break heads; in Massachusetts, they break bread.
To be clear, although, it was not a reluctant Gavin Newsom, the foppish, pro-illegal immigrant governor of California, who referred to as out the guard to take care of the Los Angeles anti-ICE riots. It was President Donald Trump.
When Newsom did not act, Trump did
Rioting, burning, and looting are a lifestyle in L.A. You even receives a commission to do it. If not, you may safely loot and thrash a liquor retailer. It’s California dreaming.
In Massachusetts, Gov. Maura Healey was forward of the curve in calling out the Nationwide Guard to take care of the unlawful immigrant invasion.
She did so in August/September 2023 when the state was overwhelmed with unlawful immigrants that hapless President Joe Biden welcomed into the nation and who discovered a welfare haven in Massachusetts.
However the Massachusetts Nationwide Guard was not used to assist ship anyone again to the place they got here from — even when a whole bunch camped out at Logan Airport, the place planes had been useful — however to ensure they had been cared for at taxpayer expense.
Everyone who broke the legislation by crashing into the state obtained free meals, housing, medical care, safety, training, transportation, telephones, money playing cards, and who is aware of what else.
No one was despatched again till President Trump, as promised, shut down the border and initiated his unlawful immigrant deportation coverage.
However fairly than thank Trump for halting the circulation of unlawful immigrants from all over the world right into a state already overburdened with excessive taxes and diminishing providers — to not point out violent unlawful immigrant crime — Healey has doubled down on her assaults on Trump.
She has change into our Gavin Newsom, which is why, on a smaller scale, persons are leaving Massachusetts the best way they’re leaving California.
Siding with unlawful immigrants and the criminals amongst them over the wants and considerations of the common citizen is killing the Democrat Social gathering. No one likes anyone who breaks the road.
However fairly than blame Biden for creating the issue by opening the border and flooding the nation with unlawful immigrants, Democrats blame Trump for fixing it. And so they name him Hitler for doing so
A living proof is Democrat Senate President Karen Spilka’s feedback about Hitler and ICE “kidnapping individuals.”
Spilka, a number one Massachusetts Democrat and Trump hater, mentioned that Trump reminded her of Hitler in Nineteen Thirties Germany when the Nazi dictator rose to energy.
In an interview final week, Spilka mentioned of ICE, “This jogs my memory of the Nineteen Thirties in Europe, when Hitler’s rise — I hate to make this comparability — however rise to energy, when individuals had been simply being arrested with out warrants.”
The “individuals” Hitler arrested and murdered with out warrants weren’t even unlawful immigrants, however German residents — hundreds of thousands of males, girls and kids — who occurred to be Jews.
Is that this what Spilka is accusing Trump of doing? How shameful is that?
