You would think a population that fears rising sea levels due to “climate change” would not want to live on an island or have coastal property. Words of wisdom: watch what they do, not what they say. Actions speak louder than words.

On Martha’s Vineyard, behind the friendliness and smiles is an enclave of a two-tier system. It’s one that lets us see the underbelly of the Technocratic and Political American Oligarchy and its treatment of Americans in general.

“Martha’s Vineyard has historically voted heavily Democratic, and the island has long been a popular destination for the elite of the Democratic Party. Chappaquidick Island, part of the town of Edgartown, was the site of the eponymous scandal in 1969, when Senator Ted Kennedy illegally left the scene of an accident in which his 28-year-old passenger Mary Jo Kopechne was drowned.

The island was also favored by the Clintons during the Bill Clinton administration. In 2017, John Kerry bought a historic waterfront property in Chilmark for $11.75 million.

Barack and Michelle Obama are particularly fond of the island, visiting in all but one of the eight years of the Obama administration. In 2019 they bought an estate, also costing $11.75 million, located on nearly 30 acres in the coastal perimeter of Edgartown. The 6,892-square-foot house has seven bedrooms, eight and a half baths, a detached barn and a pool.

In 2021, Obama had planned a lavish 60th birthday party for himself and some 475 of his closest friends—celebrities in the worlds of politics, entertainment and sports—but this was scaled back to a more modest affair in light of concerns over COVID. Even so, the soirée strained the island’s resources. Private jets leaving afterwards consumed a disproportionate amount of the small local airport’s fuel supply; garbage collection for the local population was disrupted due to the amount of garbage generated by Obama’s party. The class differences between this layer and those who do its landscaping and house cleaning speak for themselves.”
