    So you are suggesting that Martha's Vineyard will start assisting ICE in the apprehension of undocumented immigrants whose only "crime" is their presence in the US?

    Silly political stunt by DeSantis. Using real human beings as a political prop is never a good idea, especially when he has to funnel them in from another state in the first place. Dick move because he’s running for POTUS in ‘24 having absolutely nothing to do with the state of Florida, except to waste its funds for his personal political gain.

    That's the only one of the 25 on the front page, right? Long way from a 'large percentage' unless you're working under the idea that anything more than 3 percent is 'a large percentage.'

    I wonder if he even watches the videos. Am certain he doesn't read the threads.

    It's a safe bet that it stems a great deal from Denmark (and most nordic countries for that matter) having some of the strictest immigration policies in Europe and the world.

    Not to get off track but I am guessing what he is talking about is the fact that those countries (Denmark, Sweeden etc.) are 80% or more white/native people. Much different than when the percentage breakdowns are much closer. You know, the whole "I like to see people that look like me do X".

    As soon as you described them as kidnapping victims you were done.

    Do you think they might have been misled at all?

    Instead of "DeSantis kidnapping victims" he should have said "lured to Martha's Vineyard at the direction of DeSantis under false promises of jobs and housing".

    Do you have any quotes or links showing Biden telling immigrants they should come and be granted citizenship? Because I've seen plenty of evidence of Biden telling immigrants to stay home and not cross the border.

    Of course, it doesn't matter what a POTUS does. Trump tried everything and anything to stop undocumented immigration, and accomplished nothing.

    Who does have a clue? If you think it's possible to actually stop undocumented immigrants from coming over, then you certainly don't have a clue. Here's a graph showing border apprehensions from post WWII through this year. We've had more apprehensions in the 1980s and the early 2000's then what we have today. Maybe it's because there isn't really anything we can do, short of a full militarization of the border, to stop people from coming?

    So why are you so quick to blame Biden when even Trump didn't do any better than Obama. And Bush I and Reagan were worse?
