Some Modest Proposals for Govs. DeSantis, Abbott to Continue Their Excellent Work

Some Modest Proposals for Govs. DeSantis, Abbott to Continue Their Excellent Work

Commentary

The recent “transfers” of “undocumented,” and therefore “noble,” aliens—as opposed to those poor saps who actually apply to immigrate legally—to Martha’s Vineyard, Vice President Kamala Harris’s front yard, and other such places by Republican Govs. Ron Santis of Florida and Greg Abbott of Texas have created predictable consternation among members of the MHRC (Members of the Hypocritical Rich Class).

George Bernard Shaw used to call them MIRC (Members of the Idle Rich Class) but these people work hard to destroy our country. They’re not so idle. I had to give them their due—thus, the MHRC.

Therefore, since the open border isn’t only wrecking the United States via thousands of fentanyl deaths, endless human trafficking, terrorist infiltration, and so forth and also laying waste to Mexico itself, with the cartels on the verge of taking over the entire country—if they haven’t already—I had to do my minor public service and offer the following suggestions to the governors.

Gentlemen, here are some possible destinations where I am certain these excess illegal aliens (excuse me, “poor undocumented souls”) will be welcomed with the most open of charitable arms, as they were in Martha’s Vineyard. These people, after all, are “progressive.”

They care.

  1. Aspen, Colorado (especially during an important “elite” conference)
  2. Bill Gates’s house in Medina, Washington
  3. BlackRock CEO Larry Fink’s house in North Salem, New York
  4. Nancy Pelosi’s vineyard in Napa (but tell them to be careful of drunk drivers)
  5. Alejandro Mayorkas’s tennis club  (yes, he plays)
  6. John Kerry’s private jet before taking off for the next “climate” conference
  7. The Harvard Kennedy School on the day of Brian Stelter’s first class.
