Florida Flies 2 Planeloads of Migrants to Martha’s Vineyard

About 50 migrants unexpectedly arrived by plane on Martha’s Vineyard on Wednesday, local officials said, escalating a tactic in which Republican-led states have shipped busloads of migrants to liberal bastions like Washington and New York to protest the significant rise in illegal immigration under President Biden.

As the migrants received Covid-19 tests, food and clothing, there was confusion on the ground about who had sent them to Martha’s Vineyard, a popular getaway for the moneyed and powerful. Migrants said they had started the day in San Antonio, but it was the Florida governor’s office that took responsibility.

Why the governor of Florida using Florida tax payers money to pay for moving migrants in Texas to another state? That is not just eye pass, its rass pass! evil

Read an article this morning that said Biden has unwittingly underwritten the DeSantis Human Trafficking initiative with his (continued) Stimulus program.

Yes, DeSantis has a lot of money to spend.

Migrants flown to Martha's Vineyard on planes chartered by DeSantis received a brochure that falsely promised cash, job placement and more, lawyers say

Migrants who were flown to Martha's Vineyard as part of an anti-liberal political stunt by Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis were given brochures falsely promising cash assistance, job placement services, and more, according to their lawyers.

I am not sure why you refer to Biden/Harris....care to explain?

The reference to Florida relocation is unclear because DeSantis' office previously confirmed that the planes were chartered to transport the 50 migrants from Texas, not Florida. Lawyers for Civil Rights and DeSantis' office did not immediately respond to a request for comment.


Again I ask:

1. What business does the Florida governor has to do with migrants in Texas? Last I know Texas is a different state and DeScuntis is not the governor of Texas.
2. Why did Florida taxpayers had to foot the bill?
