Massachusetts Activates The National Guard To Deal With Influx Of Illegal Aliens | Eastern North Carolina Now

    Another day, another Democratic state is forced to face the consequences of their own policies. This time, Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey (D) has had to activate more than 200 National Guardsmen to assist at hotels-turned-shelters as the Bay State continues to be inundated with thousands of illegal aliens. Of course, this whole crisis is happening because the Biden administration has completely abandoned the U.S. southern border.

    According to Fox 25, 250 guardsmen will be stationed at shelters across Massachusetts to help provide "basic needs" until certain locations can find contractual labor.

    "Massachusetts is in a state of emergency, and we need all hands-on deck to meet this moment and ensure families have access to safe shelter and basic services," Healey said Thursday. "We're grateful to the brave men and women of the National Guard for stepping up to help us ensure that every family in emergency shelter has their needs met, including access to food, transportation, medical care, and education. While we work to implement a more permanent staffing solution, the National Guard will provide an efficient and effective means of delivering these services and keeping everybody safe."

    Fox 25 noted that there are currently more than 20,000 individuals living in emergency shelters in Massachusetts and most of those individuals are illegal immigrants.

    Earlier this month, Healey declared a state of emergency over the crisis.

    "It's more families than our state has ever served, exponentially more than our state has ever served, in our emergency assistance program," Healey said in early August. "Those numbers are being driven by a surge in new arrivals who have been through some of the hardest journeys imaginable. They are the face of the national-international-migrant crisis. They're here because where they came from is too dangerous to stay. They're here because Massachusetts has and will always be a beacon of hope, compassion, humanity and opportunity."

    Massachusetts' solution to the problem - much like other liberal states - has nothing to do with stopping the problem: A wide open border. The Democratic state is demanding that American taxpayers send them more money via the federal government to provide more free benefits to the illegal immigrants.

    Anybody with half of a brain sees that is unsustainable for a nation. According to one study, "at the start of 2023, the net cost of illegal immigration for the United States - at the federal, state, and local levels - was at least $150.7 billion." Now, Blue States are asking for billions more to deal with a problem they created. Under the current status quo, this problem is only going to increase. Biden has no desire to secure the border.


    Wouldn't it be much cheaper - and safer - to build a wall at the southern border and deport the illegal immigrants back to their home countries?

The previous poll on Eastern NC NOW showcased what are many of OUR Constitutional Republic's certain obstacles to remain viable, where the top encumbrance to that continuance as a functioning Republic was the Biden /Harris Wide Open Southern Border. Understanding this overwhelming concern to real America citizens: Do you believe it important to challenge the veracity of those legislated concerns of Democratic Socialists by transporting Illegal Migrants to their Sanctuary cities, counties and states for their direct care?

  Yes; test the depth of their "compassion" by giving Democratic Socialists an opportunity to enact all Sanctuary provisions in their communities to test how much they truly do care.

  No; the Biden /Harris Wide Open Southern Border Project is designed to only inundate "Red States" to begin their Demographic Upheaval for the benefit of we Democratic Socialists, our politics.

  I generally do NOT care about politics, but it is fun watching abject hypocrites squirm; maybe I will start getting more involved.
