The progressives with liberal privilege don’t live in inner cities, so when they defunded the police, the elites didn’t see how it made Black Lives worse. Open borders were the same—no contact with the misery until border Governors started bussing them to Liberal cities.
That chaos is exacerbated by the Pfederal effort to relocate border crossers all over the US. Now, states like Massachusetts have declared states of emergency over some illegal aliens in their midst, equal to a fraction of what crosses into Texas border towns every few days.
Whiners.
The solution to this growing problem is not to close the border or even fill the prisons (they are breaking the law) but to put the border jumpers up in motels and hotels at taxpayer expense (which led this Hotelier to bail on properties in NYC). Chicago, Boston, New York, you name it, and they’ve got a human trafficking problem. Too many humans are trafficked into their laps instead of being returned to their native lands.
And sure, maybe 1% of them have a legitimate claim to political asylum, but we are not obligated to accept anyone under any circumstance. We could be like every other control and control immigration, but instead, Chicago has blocked off at least one section of the airport and set up a Bidenville, where the illegals congregate and sleep.
O’Hare airport in Chicago has been turned into a shelter for illegals
The area is blocked by a black curtain and staff is refusing to let journalists in

And the housing arrangements are legit. The Chicago Sun-Times has a piece in which then adds,
After a long trek to Chicago from Venezuela and other South and Central American countries, hundreds of migrants have landed at O’Hare Airport in recent weeks to find overcrowded, unsanitary and unpleasant conditions.
Among the complaints in the airport shelter: poor quality food like instant ramen; lack of access to health care, showers and laundry; inadequate bedding; and no support for placing children in schools.
The migrants arrive at O’Hare after being flown from Texas and other states.
The Sun-Times claims these are temporary arrangements, but “The problems at O’Hare follow a doubling of the number of incoming migrants to Chicago seeking more long-term shelter. As of Thursday, that figure was 2,089. At the airport, the number was 411, up from just 31 at the beginning of August. That population is almost four times the capacity limit initially set by the city.”
Security is a concern, so what is the next housing solution, the wide walkways in shopping malls? Will they set up shops to sell wares or panhandle for change? Or can they shoplift with impunity until all the stores leave and the entire mall becomes a slum city within a city, as if this is better for everyone involved?
And while we’d like to think that these incursions into liberal air space might have some electoral implications, there’s no evidence. Chicago only has 2,089 they know about. That’s .0077% of the local population. Before the Dems pandemic, over 80 million people used O’Hare annually. A few hundred foreigners behind a curtain are not exactly an emergency.

What is an emergency is that Nancy Pelosi is running for Congress again on San Francisco values. That place is a disease-infested dumpster fire. You could shoot episodes for a spin-off series from The Walking Dead with little set prep or makeup. And Pelois has almost no chance of losing despite decades of enriching herself and donors. At the same time, the people who elect her watch their city spiral into a physical and cultural disaster.
It is a problem that is well documented in San Fran and dozens of other Dem Run cesspools that in no way deter places (like, say, Vermont) from embracing the same failed policies (like open borders) as if they’ll do it better, but they can’t. There is no other end. So, you are either in on the scam and milking the populace dry for political power and financial gain, or you are a brain-dead, water-carrying stooge with the intellectual agility of a small soap dish for supporting it.
A homeless festering Gutamalan could defecate on your Dolce & Gabbana Floral Stretch Stiletto Booties, and you’d be like, “We need more government to do something about this”
The only place we could use some government is along the border, where they’ve abdicated their responsibility to keep America safe. But it’s not just that. The Pfeds don’t want the states or the people to secure the border. Their goal is to break the system, and whether urban Democrats realize it or not, their DC Democrat masters will break them first with a bit of help from border state governors, ensuring they get a taste of the policies they embrace.
