DeSantis is a piece of shit

[Lemons]

Playing with people’s lives, using humans as props to bring him publicity from the MAGA crowd. Get your name out there good or bad. Never mind governing the people of your state.

DeSantis has produced another made-for-Fox moment: He is taking credit for delivering two planeloads of migrants to Martha’s Vineyard, where locals are scrambling to meet their needs. DeSantis’s staff apparently supplied exclusive video of these heroics to Fox: It shows the migrants, some children, disembarking from planes, and then walking along a street, all in quiet, orderly fashion.

What’s striking is how the DeSantis administration appears to have deliberately orchestrated this event for maximum cruelty and confusion. “There was no advance notice to island officials,” Julian Cyr, a Massachusetts state senator who represents the area, told me.

Many were staying in a shelter in San Antonio,” Cyr told me, adding, “A woman approached them outside the shelter and essentially lured them into taking the plane.” He said the migrants were informed they’d be able to get work papers.
Cyr said the planes made one stop in Florida and another in South Carolina. Though all this remains unconfirmed, it dovetails with some migrants telling the Times that they started off in San Antonio. It’s unclear why a Florida governor is flying migrants from Texas to Massachusetts.

I can picture those two F***ing twats, DeSantis and Abbot cackling and congratulating themselves for their cleverness.

Where did these migrants enter the country?

Where did these migrants enter the country?

Most from Venezuela. They picked most young men from Texas and South Carolina from shelters they were already in. First class flight to Martha’s Vineyard paid for by our federal dollars. I do think the migrants are better off in Massachusetts ( not Martha’s Vineyard). These clowns are literally dumping people in areas of country without letting the governors of these states know they are coming.

This happens in Texas EVERY single day. Do you really think that there is a doorman at the border in Texas announcing who is arriving, when they are expected and how many are in the party? It’s NOT legal when they are swimming the river to get here.

That argument has no logic. First, there are about 3 million immigrants not documented in NYC. Immigrants from South America don’t stay in Texas. And this is about using actual people as pawns in a political game. If it wasn’t a game they would have notified their fellow governors and given them enough advance notice of the migrants arrival. And if it wasn’t a political stunt they would have sent them to Boston or Cambridge, not Martha’s Vineyard.

How did Florida get involved? Were these people in Florida?

NPR

NPR confirmed that a plane originated in San Antonio, made a stop in Florida and then another stop in South Carolina before flying on to Martha's Vineyard. But apart from that layover, the migrants NPR interviewed had not spent time in Florida.

The unannounced flight drew anger from Massachusetts officials.

"We have the governor of Florida ... hatching a secret plot to send immigrant families like cattle on an airplane," said state Sen. Dylan Fernandes, who represents Martha's Vineyard. "Ship them women and children to a place they weren't told where they were going and never alerted local officials and people on the ground here that they were coming. It is an incredibly inhumane and depraved thing to do."

The funds came from Florida whose legislators voted to spend $12 million on this program.

DeSantis represents the worst of America. The community of Martha's Vineyard represents the best.

It is true that it happens every day. However, the state of Texas and our governor is still wrong. His anger should be directed at the White House. He shouldn’t be sending people to other areas out of spite without letting local leadership know or give them time to prepare.

A long time ago, other areas started sending homeless down south and leadership rightfully got mad, so they know how rude this is.
