Ron DeSantis sends two planes of illegal immigrants to Martha's Vineyard

EXCLUSIVE: Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis followed through on his promise to drop off illegal immigrants in progressive states, sending two planes full of migrants to Martha’s Vineyard on Wednesday.

A video DeSantis’ office provided to Fox News Digital shows the migrants deboarding the planes at Martha’s Vineyard Airport in Massachusetts.

"Yes, Florida can confirm the two planes with illegal immigrants that arrived in Martha’s Vineyard today were part of the state’s relocation program to transport illegal immigrants to sanctuary destinations," the governor’s communications director, Taryn Fenske, told Fox News Digital.

"States like Massachusetts, New York, and California will better facilitate the care of these individuals who they have invited into our country’ by incentivizing illegal immigration through their designation as ‘sanctuary states’ and support for the Biden Administration’s open border policies," she said.

"As you may know, in this past legislative session the Florida Legislature appropriated $12 million to implement a program to facilitate the transport of illegal immigrants from this state consistent with federal law," she added.

The office of Massachusetts Gov. Charlie Baker did not respond to an after-hours inquiry from Fox News Digital.

Fox News Digital reported in April that Florida’s budget since-approved by the State Legislature included $12 million for the Florida Department of Transportation to remove illegal immigrants from the state and relocate them.


Meanwhile, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott, a Republican, began sending thousands of illegal immigrants to Washington, D.C., in April as the migrant crisis overwhelmed border states. In August, buses from Texas started heading to New York City and Chicago. Arizona has also sent buses to Washington.

Vice President Kamala Harris, was put in charge of tackling the border crisis by President Biden shortly after they assumed office in 2021, sparked a firestorm this week after she twice declared the U.S. southern border is "secure," while administration officials estimate an average of 55,000 so-called "gotaways" each month, or illegals who successfully make it into the country without being detained.

I dunno why but wouldnt the liberals just use them as illegal voters and win more elections? why not just keep em at the border ready for deportation when their cases are heard?

Not a fan of this tactic, you are just giving em what they want.

This is a valid point, but I have to say the upsides of hypocrisy exposure and forcing the elites to live with the consequences of their policies outweigh that concern.

Besides, this is Martha's Vineyard Massachusetts.

You could not get a more leftist voting bloc no matter if you imported half of Cuba

What they want in Martha's Vineyard? Are you serious?

How many lawn services do you think they have?

This is a brilliant troll. What do you mean NIMBY? Weren't you the ones who declared your back yards sanctuaries? Don't tell me that was just empty virtue signalling...

Should have sent them over the border where they belong. Better yet we should end all incentives so that these illegals have no reason to come here.

We like to tell ourselves that, but it is just not the case.

This is one of the few issues that Ron got wrong, especially in today's climate.

The people coming across the border by the millions are not coming to get free hand outs and Obama phones.

Take a close look...most of them have that already.

They are being weaponized by Marxist agitators supported by NGOs from around the world, to "march right in and take back what the gringo stole from your ancestors."

That's where Ron has it wrong: you could end every single government handout, and they would still be invading by the millions, regardless.

The government goody bag is just a lagniappe.

No, they wont stay in Martha's vineyard for long, they will leave to neighbouring cities in no time but they have now been transported to the interior far away from the border which is something most illegals want.

The better approach would be to use the money designated for chartering those private jets to build holding centers to keep the illegals from getting to their destination. The more they come, the bigger the centers.

These people will be voting in no time and best believe they wouldn't be voting for DeSantis or ppl like him. This move will backfire on the republicans.

Yea, its is funny watching em whine about illegals being dumped in their state. But the dems wouldn't vote these guys out, if anything it will give em more power and funding needed to take care of the new problems.

One day on lunch break we were all joking around. We got to talking about current news stories. Then two of my Mexican coworkers just started trashing the United States. I don't remember the exact context, but it was something along the lines of the degeneracy in our country. These guys are actually pretty based. Then an Anglo coworker said, "if you guys hate it so much then why do you all move here?" Then it got serious all of the sudden and one of the Mexican guys said ,"because there are no jobs in Mexico." This isn't the first time I've heard this statement made.

As far as the Marxist agitators. I've never met reconquista types, but then again I've only dealt with working class type people. It might be different dealing with college professor types.

Every once in a while I'll turn on the TV and watch Univision news with Jorge Ramos. I don't speak fluent Spanish, but I'm always trying to learn via audiobooks and other resources. I also turn on subtitles in Spanish and this helps me understand more of what is going on. From what I can ascertain of Univision News it is extremely left leaning.
 
I like DeSantis but I don't like this. I have sympathy for the illegals. Dumping them on the vinyard which is not equipped to deal with them is a cruel. Bussing them from Florida to major northeast cities like NY and Boston where they are wanted, where there are facilites to deal with them is fine. This isn't. These are real people, not pawns.

You assume that these consequences will entail more costs than benefits. I doubt that's the case.
 
Exactly, they just got a free private jet ride to the mainland america courtesy of Desantis

Florida isn't mainland America? He's not flying them up from the Honduras.

Ah, but they are pawns. All DeSantis is really doing here is converting them from blue pawns to red pawns.

Furthermore, I think most of them know they're being used as pawns the moment they choose to join these organized and well funded caravan operations. They obviously see potential benefits from allowing that to happen.
 
The Vineyard is very small and its property is generational blue-blooded. There is no chance any of these migrants stay there.

The same is true of all of us, including the usual suspects here who are terrified of the reconquista types.

I have, but they are all college educated (Hispanic) Americans.

They are not wanted anywhere. New York and Boston don't want them.

Not even the average Democrat voters thought Biden would refuse to enforce any border with Mexico.

Oh well.
