. Recent illegal immigrant arrests on the islands of Nantucket and Martha's Vineyard in Massachusetts have captured the nation's attention. Biden/Harris would be responsible for the entire county following the same path.
Over the last month, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has made at least six arrests on the islands as part of a larger operation to detain illegal immigrant suspects accused of particularly egregious crimes in the beach towns favored by the Biden and Obama families. "I think many people are concerned about the violent illegal population. ... The biggest thing is obviously not knowing anybody's history if they're here illegally. The legal immigrants will even discuss that," Toby Brown, chair of the Nantucket GOP, told Fox News Digital.
Brown, who noted that most immigrants on the idyllic island off the coast of Cape Cod are good and active community members, including those residing there illegally. But residents are still concerned about those who may be running from violent pasts in their home countries. "It's such a small island that I find that things have gotten a little worse here on Nantucket," he said, though he also noted there are multiple reasons why crime and poverty seemed to have increased on the island in recent years. Those are problems the ultrawealthy island residents seem to be removed from, he said. "Once again, they're in big estates. And unfortunately, on Nantucket, the mainstream press, for the most part, would like people to think this place is still kind of just like Disneyland and we have zero issues on the island."
