So once again we are using Florida taxpayer dollars to fly immigrants from Texas to another state? What is this bizarre bullshit and how are the "small govt" "freedom" folks not up in arms?
expensive stunt to "own" the libs, all at taxpayer cost. so much for fiscal conservatism from big gov ron. #hypocrite
Such a tangled web they weave--Vertol Systems, Berry Aviation, Acorn Growth Companies, Rick Nagel, Tom Cole, etc. Newsom threatens DeSantis with kidnapping charges after migrants dumped twice in four days
This only means local law enforcement at a state level won't enforce Federal immigration law. Many cities do the same. Usually makes for better policing as the local immigrant population, documented or undocumented, doesn't fear the local LEOs and cooperate with them when it comes to local crimes. Sanctuary status has nothing to do with the case if these immigrants were forcefully moved from Texas to California without their permission.
It doesn't take that much to be charged as a principal or a co-conspirator. He's made several public statements that are potentially damaging.
I’ve got mixed feelings re Newsom but I’d love it if DeSantis had to fight criminal charges. Again these right wing hacks have no limits and no self control. They will continue to try to outdo each other to the point of alienating voters and even criminal charges.
How are these flights being funded? Is desi using florida tax dollars set aside to fly immigrants out of Florida to fund this like he did before? Why isn't that illegal as the immigrants aren't coming from Florida?
