Flew more immigrants on a private jet from New Mexico to California. More than a dozen migrants from South America who were recently flown on a chartered jet from New Mexico and dropped off in Sacramento were carrying documents indicating that their transportation was arranged by the state of Florida, California's attorney general said Sunday.
The documents appear to show that the flight was arranged through the Florida Division of Emergency Management and that it was part of the state's program to relocate migrants, mostly from Texas, to other states, Atty. Gen. Rob Bonta said.
The contractor for the program is Vertol Systems Co., which coordinated similar flights that took dozens of Venezuelan asylum seekers from San Antonio to Martha's Vineyard in Massachusetts last year, he said.

Why are Florida taxpayers paying for migrants in other states to be relocated to different states? If I lived in FL I would be livid about this.

Floridians might not know about it.
I just talked with my Florida relatives and they bitched about a how bunch of other "hot" political issues - not one word about the immigrants being flown anywhere on Florida's dime.

Florida taxpayers are on the hook for many millions of dollars due to the personal actions of Ron DeSantis. Just like Arizona taxpayers have been forced to pay many millions of dollars for the personal actions of Joe Arpaio. Would have been better off to imprison or assassinate those two worthless f***s instead.  |

He also was personally affected by the shooting in Nashville, and is now trying to pass a few common-sense restrictions, but state congress won't have any of that. |

Maybe enough of them will get involved in shootings themselves and start seeing some sense? Odds are far from non zero that could happen. |
