Nothing says taken in & taken care of like loading your ass on another bus and sending you somewhere else.

Sad situation all around which has been made exponentially worse by the current administration.

The big issue with the Biden administration is the end of Title 42. Title 42 was actually a violation of international law as it prohibited those with asylum claims from having their claim vetted and instead expelled them immediately. It was enacted as a response to the pandemic and because of the pandemic becoming less of an immediate crisis was ended because of its tenuous legality when it comes to human rights.

Since then, Biden has been transporting these immigrants claiming asylum from the border areas that are being overwhelmed and to areas more inland that still have resources available so they can have a place to be while they are waiting for their trial dates. This is a process that is carried out through DHS so that they can keep tabs on these immigrants and make sure the processes are being followed. It is all above board and it is a case of the Biden administration actually trying to alleviate the burden on the border states.

What DeSantis did was mislead these immigrants into thinking they were being sent somewhere in a similar fashion to the federal programs. Instead, Martha's Vineyard and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts were unaware of the situation and had not prepared for their arrival. In addition, a videographer was sent with them to document the whole thing because it had nothing to do with actually helping the situation somewhere, but instead a political stunt. DeSantis not only lied to these immigrants, but he also misappropriated state funds because the money had been allocated for removal of immigrants from Florida but these immigrants were not in Florida at all. These immigrants were manipulated and lied to, being used as objects instead of autonomous human beings and that is the biggest issue on the left right now.

When they arrived on Martha's Vineyard, which due to it being much more of a vacation spot doesn't have the infrastructure to handle this type of situation, the people there coordinated with organizations on the mainland and transported them so they could be taken care of.

The lack of common ***** sense from people on this is ludicrous. "They have money, they could have taken care of them! Don't mind the fact that they don't have the infrastructure that exists for such things! That doesn't matter!" I swear, the right-wing noise machine has made it so people on the right can't ***** think for themselves anymore. They just parrot what they hear in their echo chamber. They even want the people that are supposed to be really doing the research to come up with conservative policies to just blindly follow the incoherent ramblings of the charlatans in the media.

I swear, as much of a government cog as I am I just find myself drawn back into the music of my younger years more and more. The punk rock music of discontent that fueled my disdain for the system.
