Now, you see? This is why Martha's Vineyard residents were so eager to toss their unexpected unwashed off the island and into an onshore military base (UPDATED)
/“come back when you’ve learned ironing!”
Remember when Ron DeSantis brought the results of Biden’s throwing open the border to national attention by busing 48 unwashed Venezuelans to Martha’s Vineyard? I’m sure the residents there would like to forget it, because, after pouring out of their mansions to “welcome” the new arrivals and pose for the cameras, they called in buses and shipped the poor people to Otis Air Force faster than you can say “hold my martini”. A certain embarrassment followed for about ten minutes and then faded back into oblivion, but DeSantis and, within days, Abbot of Texas, had changed the national dialogue from one of Episcopalian feel-gooders moaning about no one being illegal, and inviting all 6 billion of the world’s poor to our our shores, to one where ordinary people were suddenly noticing that Biden had loosed 23 million people: that’s the population of 3 NYCs; 6 Connecticuts; or 23 S. Dakotas, to roam our country demanding free food, shelter, medical care and education for their fecund families. It was the beginning of the end for Biden and his fellow anti-American co-conspiracists.
But, while American wised up, those notoriously-slow learners, the French, are still in the discovery mode:
That French theater that invited migrants to a show and then they refused to leave? The owners are now abandoning the building.
The Gaîté Lyrique theatre in Paris opened their doors for a free event called "Reinventing the welcome for refugees in France" on December 10. The conference featured leftist academics, who quickly invited a bunch of African refugees to the event, because who else would come to such a thing?
However, when the conference was over, the refugees remained - and they're still there, occupying the theater.
Halfway through January, when that article was published, the migrants had been there for over a month. Now, they've been there for 11 weeks and counting.

And, because this is why we can’t nice things, here’s the latest development:
Left-wing theatre managers who invited 200 migrants to a free show will abandon the building and face bankruptcy as refugees still refuse to leave after three months and spark wave of sex-related violence https://t.co/De853XqScy

Left-wing managers of a Paris theatre occupied by hundreds of homeless African migrants are set to abandon the building because of sex-related violence.
They say the crisis at the Gaîté Lyrique - one of the French capital's most historic arts venues - is now ‘so explosive' that retreat by this Friday is their only option.
…
There are now 446 people living inside illegally, most of them claiming they are minors under the age of 18 who deserve permanent housing.
But local officials have insisted that they are adults and that most are known to the authorities and had been sleeping on the streets before entering the theatre.
HAHAHAHHA!
But there may be an easier, softer way of assuaging the heartbreak of liberalism, one that involves neither discomfort nor inconvenience. FWIW’s Indigenous Peoples Land Reclamation correspondent Susie sends along this photo of a Vancouver Island resident’s simple solution:
