Speaker 1 (00:00):
I love this political story, just absolutely love it. The
governor of Florida has joined the parade of of of
of of just the wonder of sending illegals to sanctuary
cities and sanctuary states. It's just it's just so awesome.
It's been happening out of Texas. Now the left wing
media is acting like it's just a political stunt because

(00:21):
Governor de Santis wants to get on TV just like
the governor of Texas because their rivals to be nominee
blah blah blah. It couldn't possibly be because it's clearly
the right thing. Well, you know that that that might be.
De Santis might have seen that in Texas thought wow,
that is awesome. That is really good. I should do
that too. H that's fine, killed two birds one stone.

(00:44):
But De Santis said, just a little bit ago, all
those people in d C in New York were beating
their chests when Trump was president, saying they were so
proud to be sanctuary jurisdictions. They all of a sudden
go berserk and they're so upset that this is happening.
Their virtue signaling is a fraud. I love that because
fifty illegal immigrants showed up in Martha's vineyard last night.

(01:06):
One of the knocks on that is I just love
this article from NPR um migrants are staying at a
church shelter while local authorities and nonprofit organizations figure out
what's going to happen next. Yet it's a it's a
tough situation where a whole bunch of people just show
up out of nowhere and you gotta figure out what
to do next. Somebody who runs a homeless shelter said,
we need everything from beds, to food, to clothing, to toothbrushes,

(01:28):
tooth basted blankets, sheets. I mean we had some of
the we we didn't have. We didn't have everything that
we needed. Yet it's been that way for decades, and
lots of towns closer to the border where a whole
bunch of people show up all of a sudden, and
then I love this. People are this part from NPR.
Most of the arrivals spoke little or no English, and
Spanish speaking high school students were pressed into services interpreters. Wow,

(01:50):
so it's difficult to deal with a whole bunch of
people who show up who've got nothing. They're they're basically
homeless and you don't speak their language. Oh and their
kids want to go to your school and they show
up in the emergency room and you got to take
care of him. And you don't have anybody who speaks Spanish.
And add to that, like that city councilwoman in Washington,
d c. Who said, and the federal government isn't helping

(02:12):
us a NPR alphabet Networks New York Times put aside
any possible political motivation that ron de Santis might have
her or the governor of Texas, Greg Abbott, or or
anybody else, answer me this, Does this illustrate beautifully the

(02:37):
crisis that the border towns and communities have been enduring
because of open border policies for years and years and years,
And does it awaken other Americans all across the country
to the incredible challenges of the influx of millions of immigrants.
The answer is clearly, indisputably yes to all of those questions.

(02:59):
What I would like to hear anybody say, ever, is
I really understand now what the people of pick a
town near the border with the people of you know,
name this town, Texas or Arizona or New Mexico have
have dealt with and how charitable they have been and
accepting these people into their communities and their schools in

(03:21):
their emergency rooms and dealing with it because it takes
a lot of work and a lot of money. That's
what I'd like to hear out of Martha's Vineyard or
any of these other places, because all these cities have
absorbed this and figured out a way to make it work.
And it's tough when all of a sudden you got
people that don't speak any English in your classroom and
you have to get teachers that speak that language and

(03:41):
slows down learning for your kid. It's hard, it's really
really hard, and that's expensive to get all those bilingual
people in English as the second language classes going in.
As I said earlier, you have to eliminate programs for
gifted kids, have to eliminate sports, You have to eliminate
extra help for the kids or falling behind. Yeah, so
it's me how this is all kind of falling together

(04:02):
like a patchwork, that aspect of it, and this is
really expensive to feed all these people, and what about
these children? And then you got the Washington d c.
Gal federal government's not doing anything. You all are starting
to get it as we've said the two slogans, The
two brilliant slogans ought to be on the sides of

(04:23):
the buses. Number one, it's your turn, or except your
fair share.
