California No Borders activists call Illegal aliens “refugees” in Napa Valley; want Pelosi to send federal cash

Martin Bennett said his focus has become one of advocacy for those who are displaced, the so-called “illegals,” undocumented migrants who come looking for work in the restaurants and the vineyard fields. “The Napa Valley is unparalleled in its generosity to causes,” he said. “But these refugees are here, in the valley, seeking employment.” [Again, they are NOT refugees.—ed] ...
