Massachusetts Gov. Maura Healey on Tuesday declared a state of emergency in the liberal state over a surge of migrants that she says has left social services overwhelmed, calling for more funding and federal action. Healey, a Democrat, announced that a state of emergency exists "due to rapid and unabating increases in the number of families with children and pregnant people — many of them newly arriving migrants and refugees — living within the state but without the means to secure safe shelter in our communities." The state says there are nearly 5,600 families or more than 20,000 people in

Gee, I didn't realize that Massachusetts was on the Mexican border.
That many cross the Texas border every day. And there are some that perish enroute, on both sides of the border. Thanks, Brandon.

Reap the whirlwind, all of you Dimotwits. You never learn from your actions, so I.Don't.Care. Did you really think all of these illegals were going to stay in our Southern border states?

Holy crap are liberals stupid! How long have the borders been open? Did you warn Biden about this?

I'm sure it seemed so simple to pander to a particular demographic by declaring they were a sanctuary city, county, or state, all so they could look compassionate compared to Republicans who simply wanted an orderly process.

"Hey! When we said we are a migrant sanctuary we didn't think that you'd take it seriously!"

It's a humanitarian disaster! Quick! Declare all those migrants as American citizens, register them to vote, and house them all around the state (preferably in Republican districts).

If you feed them, they will stay. If you don't, they will move on.

You could get the gummint to seal the border, but hey, good luck with that...it would cut off the pool of democrap voters...not that they need them any more since they've got the 'best election fraud' group per Slo Joe...don't forget he said that...

They thought it was OK when just Texas and Arizona were being overrun. They get around 1/10th of 1 percent of the illegals flooding TX and AZ and declare a state of emergency; however, neither NY or MA are pushing the Biden Administration to close the wide-open door. If the border states sent all of their illegals to RI, it would double their population. Just the got-a-ways alone, would overwhelm the criminally hypocritical Blue states in a few months, which is what should happen. Since the left has long glorified sex and drugs, give their constituents all they can handle and then some.

What IDIOTS could have possibly predicted that a surge of migrants could overwhelm social services? Why should rational American taxpayers subsidize those states which intentionally attract illegals by their votes?

TS, ma'am. You and your legislature are on your own. Guess you will have to print/borrow the money to pay for your illegals.

So all of these states are going to go crying, hat in hand, to Diapers for money to take of all the illegals he is letting come into our country. We will pay and pay and pay.

"Calls for federal ACTION!"......LOL!
Federal action is what brought all these illegal aliens to your state, you freaking idiot. This is the RESULT of "federal action" of opening the borders, and assisting anyone who shows up to enter the USA without the slightest hinderance, and free phones, free transport, free food, free housing.....all that "free" stuff paid for by our taxes, of course.

Gov. Maura Healey doesn't really mind the illegals, she just wants Biden/Mayorkas to send a boatload of taxpayer money to her. There's money in them thar illegals.

PS
I went through 3 years of Green card apps and another 4 years of citizenship apps as a Canadian engineer.
Won't tell you the cost. It was less than a plane ticket to Del Rio and I know how to pronounce "asylum".
I am a PROUD US CITIZEN for 30 years and won't tolerate the line crashers for a minute.

Honestly who cares about these idiots? The voters are the sole reason they are bing governed by leftists who do not care about the border, our national security, or them. They need to stop whining and just shut up.

The liberal States like Taxitshusetts love the migrants (illegal aliens) who they believe will be granted amnesty and be transformed into future leftist and socialist Democrat supporters and voters. Those liberal States and cities just want the federal government to pay all the costs. They will love the migrants (illegal aliens) more when the next U.S. Census comes around with the migrants (illegal aliens) being counted and jacking up the population numbers in those liberal States causing numbers of Congressional Districts and seats to be redistricted to those liberal States where liberal Democrat candidates most likely will win the resulting elections, probably giving the Democrats a permanent majority on into the future in the House of Representatives, resulting in the leftist Democrats attaining permanent control of that body of Congress. What do the wimpy Republicans have to say about all that, duh?
