Thanks for reminding us with this total fabrication about how the some in the border patrol on the actual border treats asylum seekers. The only thing that got “rounded up” when immigrants were illegally flown into Martha’s Vineyard were meals and temporary shelter for the victims of a cruel plot by authoritarian nationalist governors.
Bok and the other wingnuts make a big deal of how elitist Martha’s Vinyard residents appear in their imaginations, but can never give credit to these same residents’ humanity in how DeSantis’ human pawns were received and treated. It’s a tiresome and cowardly dodge by right-wingers who can never face the moral truth of a situation that highlights their own depravity.
Clear Bok doesn’t read the news beyond his own blinkered prejudices, (as usual), as MV residents not only did NOT paint out the ‘welcome’ sign, but in fact, did welcome, and shelter the abductees.
“Speaking of human trafficking, President Biden flew 2,000 migrants on late night flights to Westchester County, New York. Florida Governor DeSantis answered by sending 50 migrants to Martha’s Vineyard. For that he was sued. By migrants in the country illegally.” – CB
So this is Chip’s message to readers for his cartoon on Counterpoint. Note majority of those 2K migrants were unaccompanied minors processed by CBP and Immigration officials. Google it and discover Right Wing trash…I mean media sources claim it was secret, in the dead of night; yet local officials and law enforcement were there to meet the plane, as well as, family members of migrants. Wow…that is some secret operation similar to DeSantis’ political stunt.
DeSantis’ political stunt & illegal attempt to interfere in migrants’ court cases backfired. Will Bok endorse pushing people out of helicopters hovering over the California Governor’s Mansion, next?

Baghdad Bok LIEs again. Of course.
DeSantis ‘answers’?
By LYING to immigrants who are not illegal, and sending them from TEXAS to Massachusetts.
Once again, the migrants were NOT illegal. They were asylum seekers awaiting hearings.
.
Bok again demonstrates the mental deficiencies of the Trump Disciples — they can no longer distinguish what is a LIE. They have lost the mental capacity to process anything not originating from the right wing media structure.
Florida Maga Attorney General and election subverter Ashley Moody celebrated Gov. Ron DeSantis’ illegal, cruel and xenophobic political stunt on (where else?) FOX “News”, and wants to wreak more harm on Martha’s Vineyard. Moody whined that “Americans are dying at record rates because the border is open and there’s fentanyl,” without citing any statistics or facts to support her fear mongering. “We should have just put fentanyl on [the charter flight], too, and see how (spit) Martha’s Vineyard would have dealt with fentanyl coming into their city and how their people would have dealt with that and how their law enforcement would have been able to handle that!”
Notice how Chip made his depiction of the legal, asylum-seeking migrants, who were from Venezuela, as Mestizo Mexicans. Classic dehumanization of a people, making cruelty and inhumanity against them easier to swallow.
“Why can’t we just shoot them in the legs, or something?”
Maga Republicans really don’t want to have immigration reform, and won’t even discuss it. Their policy is “Starve the Beast” by cutting funds and resources, and then blame Democrats when it fails. When they were in power, their “solution” was deterrence and cruelty. Thus, children were separated from their parents, who were immediately deported or disappeared. Others were rounded up and herded into for-profit labor camps prior to deportation. Asylum seekers were not allowed into the country, and immigration lawyers were fired in order to overload the system (Denial of Service by intent). Bills to increase HHS and Border Patrol spending were blocked.
The Spanish Inquisition had a rule for their “interrogation” of accused heretics: No Spill Blood
Magas crave the same sadism – exert as much cruelty and misery on the undesirables as possible without actually killing them – and never want to come up with actual policies to deal with the problem. It’s too convenient a weapon. Shipping them out just to “stick it to the libs” is a win-win political stunt to them, even if it’s actually an immoral and illegal, bloodless version of an ethnic cleansing operation.
But hey, at least we didn’t shoot them in the legs, right?
Why do Border Patrol agents ride horses with split reins?According to a sixth generation Rancher, Kerr Wardlaw, the Border Patrol Agents were using something called split reins in order to have more control their horse.

Fortunately, this cartoon is a complete lie. The good people of Martha’s Vineyard welcomed the immigrants with open arms and humanitarian aid until the Republican governor of Massachusetts could step in and provide them a more stable environment on Joint Base Cap Cod.
But, this cartoon is what Republicans were HOPING would happen, and since miserable fantasy is their stock-in-trade, I’m not surprised to see it.
@Chip….is this a DREAM sequence? Because the “LIBS” owned DeSantis. Ron lied, cheated, transported and dumped…and the good people of Martha’s Vineyard took them in, fed them, clothed them and talked with them like they are truly human beings. Which one is like Jesus?
