Operatives Linked to DeSantis Left Migrants Stranded

Miami Herald: “The migrants didn’t know that they were being swept up in an operation that bore striking similarities to one organized the week before by operatives for Gov. Ron DeSantis that ended with 48 Venezuelan migrants dropped off on a Massachusetts island. Or that the trip to Delaware being dangled would never happen.”

“They also didn’t know that an anonymous source close to DeSantis would suggest to NBC News that a planned charter flight from San Antonio to Delaware — that was destined for an airport not far from President Joe Biden’s summer home, according to flight records, and dominated cable news on Tuesday — was canceled without explanation and then used to ‘punk’ journalists and Democrats and keep the ‘spotlight’ on immigration.”

“If so, the migrants interviewed by the Herald were the butt of the joke. They thought they were going somewhere.”
