Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis says he’ll send Haitian migrants to Martha’s Vineyard
Mꦗigrants fleeing the terrifying violence of gang-controlled Haiti will join others getting shipped out to Democratic strongholds like Marth🥀a’s Vineyard, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has warned.
“We do have our transport program … that’s going to be operational,” DeSantis on Tuesday of the mass busing of migrants away from border states.
“Haitians land in the Florida Keys, their next stop very well may be Martha’s Vineyꦜard.”
The Sunshine State is only about 840 miles from Haiti, where armed groups have taken control following the resignation of Prime Minister Ariel Henry.
Roughly 1.4 million Haitians are on the verge of famine, aid groups say, and more than 15,000 people 𒆙have been left homeless.
DeSantis has deployed d💜ozens of officers and soldiers, along witඣh helicopters, drones and boats to patrol the South Florida waterways for any ships arriving from the country,
Their efforts apparently paid off, with DeSantis claiming that the state Fish and Wildlife Conservat♍ion Commission caught a bo♏at carrying 25 Haitian refugees — including five children.
It was also trans𝓡porting firearms, night vision goggles and drugs off the Florida coast, DeSan🎃tis told Loesch.
“Look, Dana, I’ve got to defend my state,” he said. “I’ve got enough issues just dealing with people fleeing from blue states moving to Florida.”
