Wait, so DeSantis is paying big money to fly TEXAS migrants to Martha's Vinyard?

So this confirms to me that this is all a show, because apparently Florida did not have 50 of their own migrants to send. So, all this whining from Florida about people seeking asylum is a load of crap. DeSantis and right wing media are manufacturing a problem to get people all whipped up .

If I was a Florida tax payer, I would be quite pissed off.

Florida is not a border state as he claims. I also understand he may have used Covid relief funds...all taxpayers should be outraged.

@Docdon23 correct ✅, the funds came straight from the Covid Relief funds, this is a whole new legal issue.

Imagine wasting 550k to fly a couple of immigrants to a place where they don’t know or care about. They’re just here to get out of a bad situation, apply for asylum, work, and attend their court dates.

Florida and Massachusetts are just two more American states attempting to deal with an unmanageable immigration crisis.
