They are in fact deeply put out by the very idea.<\/p>\n<p>A video clip of documentary-maker Ken Burns went semi-viral Thursday showing Burns on CNN expressing that exact sentiment.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is coming straight out of the authoritarian playbook,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/tomselliott\/status\/1570410940855877637\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">he said<\/a>, referring to Republican Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis having sent about 50 illegal border-crossers to the pristine town of Martha\u2019s Vineyard. \u201cThis is what\u2019s so disturbing about DeSantis \u2026 to weaponize human beings for a political purpose. It\u2019s like when somebody disagrees with him in Florida \u2026 he punishes them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Burns reemphasized that point, saying, \u201cThis is about punishing political enemies.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a shocking admission considering that up until then, leftists had proudly <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2022\/09\/15\/10-even-more-awesome-places-to-send-illegal-immigrants-besides-deporting-them\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">worn their bleeding hearts on their sleeves<\/a>, typically accompanied by those obnoxious \u201cIn this house, we believe\u2026\u201d yard signs.<\/p>\n<p>What changed? Nothing in terms of the actual problem. There are still hundreds of thousands of migrants dumping themselves into the care of American taxpayers every month. Over the past year, there have been <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbp.gov\/newsroom\/stats\/southwest-land-border-encounters\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">upwards of 2 million aliens<\/a> arrested by U.S. Customs and Border Protection. Other than July, every month of 2022 has seen tens of thousands more migrants than last year.<\/p>\n<p>This is the case even though Kamala Harris \u2014\u00a0yes, <em>the<\/em> Kamala Harris \u2014 told migrants venturing to the U.S., \u201cDon\u2019t come.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Well, they came. And despite pleas from Democrats in southern border districts pleading for the Biden administration to do something to stop or even just slow the chaos, leftists everywhere else told them to shut up and show some compassion. After all, Latin America\u2019s destitute were only coming here for a better life. Is it too much to ask that the taxpayers of Texas, Arizona, and Florida provide that for them?<\/p>\n<p>Of course not! But remember: We\u2019re all in this together!<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s no reason places like Martha\u2019s Vineyard \u2014\u00a0described <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2022\/09\/17\/us\/marthas-vineyard-migrants-journey-desantis\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">by CNN<\/a> as \u201ca summer playground for former US presidents, celebrities and billionaires\u201d \u2014 <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2022\/09\/15\/left-wingers-melt-down-over-diversity-brought-to-marthas-vineyard-as-migrant-sanctuary\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">can\u2019t share the burden<\/a>. It was only 50 migrants.<\/p>\n<p>Those hearts went from bleeding to black in less time than it takes to say \u201cDon\u2019t come.\u201d Within 24 hours, leftists had likened the migrants <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/nbc-news-gutted-deleting-tweet-quote-comparing-marthas-vineyard-migrants-trash\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">to \u201ctrash,\u201d<\/a> called in the National Guard, and had the illegals shipped out to a military base.<\/p>\n<p>When Democrats say they \u201cwelcome\u201d illegal immigrants, what they really mean is \u2014 welcome them into your space, not theirs. They mean that cleaning them, feeding them, and figuring out what to do with them, by the hundreds of thousands, isn\u2019t their job. That\u2019s for someone else.<\/p>\n<p>Democrats are eager to let more <span style=\"text-decoration: line-through;\">voters<\/span> immigrants in. So long as none of them end up in their idyllic beach towns and gated communities. They consider that an attack.
