At least two planes with undocumented immigrants were sent from Florida to Martha’s Vineyard, according to a statement from Gov. Ron DeSantis’ communications director. The arrival of the migrants left Massachusetts state officials scrambling to find them shelter. WBTS’s Oscar Margain reports

Put them to work in your mansions… I think it's a riot. To funny
even if these illegals didn't volunteer, the govt has right to send them to any place in the US because they didn't come in the legal way, resident, interview, waiting period…these illegals cost US taxpayers and diverting of govt resources, and they don't care…they are selfish too…so liberals stop crying and complaining…why don't liberals fanatics go live near these border cities where thousands of illegals are stationed there….50 illegals to martha's is nothing, should send 10,000 so every states shares the burden,
You wanted illegals to come on in, until theyre in your backyard you bunch of hypocrites
Let’s be real… their just complaining because there are brown people on their lawns…
As I have said before. That's cute. Except, they are legal migrants with papers, waiting to be processed and lied to and tricked to board the plane, believing they were going to Boston for speedier processing and waiting jobs and housing, and given false US addresses to homeless shelters, false processing instructions, and sent to M.V. with no warning to the authorities there. Some of them must be presented to the authorities in N.M on Monday. Good luck with that. On the bright side, It only costs $ 8 M to Floridian taxpayers for this amusing little stunt. A sweet little trap, well planned, I must admit. Florida, not a shelter state for immigrants? who knew. Who cleans your hotels?
WOW AND DOUBLE WOW that trash that lives on Marth's Vineyard can't find room for 50 people, Marth's Vineyard used to part the Underground Railroad These people on the Vineyard if you can call them people are just TRASH TRASH TRASH
These people in Martha's Vineyard are so kind.
The 50 migrants came, they gave them food, shelter, pizza, they decided to do charity and help these people, and then in less than 24h, they're out of the millionaire island and sent to another place.
Over on Fox news they are celebrating what he did. And so are their viewers in the comments. They are happy to be seeing liberals and Democrats crying. Shows you how detached and cold-blooded they are.
Great that DeSantis bringing light to the problem. All people upset should ask Diapers Biden….. Mr Clueless
It is rich and white island. They should be grateful for diversity. They have 11000 empty beds of season lol
lol the Martha's Vineyard NIMBY Democrats have already pitchforked them to a military base.
AMEN Keep them coming!!!Millions and Millions..
If Lib hypocrisy was alternative energy, it could power the world!

No notice of the dozens of people they have to deal with.
What notice do you think real border towns have for the 1000s and 1000s?
SO THE BOARDER CROSSERS ARE GOOD FOR TEXAS AND ARIZONA BUT NOT FOR THE RICH HIPOCRATES ON MARTHA'S VINEYARD, SEND 10 TIMES THE AMOUNT and tell the people on the island, the Rich, you pay for your LIBERAL friends Policies,
And say "Not in my Backyard " You DAMNED HIPOCRATES!
Border crossers are not Good Enough for the Rich on Martha's vineyard They have to send them to the main Land, Screw the Rich there, send 10 times the amount there and say the Border crossers are good for Texas and Arizona but not FOR THE RICH HIPOCRATES ON THERE ISLAND
The governor should keep on sending them to Martha's Vineyard. All of the wealthy people that live there should welcome them into their huge homes with open arms. They should also be flown to Biden and Pelosi's front door since the boarder is wide open. Their doors should be wide open too.
Theres plenty housr for sale and rent in MV ….so whats tge problem….they welcome illegal immigrants…..
For the amount of tax dollars DeSatan spent on this stunt, he could have given each and every one of these migrants their own house. Consider that when Republicans have the choice of helping or hurting human beings, they choose to hurt every single time
Mass. Governor called in the National Guard (the Army) to expel these 50 brown people from the basically all white island of Martha's Vineyard…but somehow DeSantis is the bad guy?! 🤦🏻♂️🤯🤡
Liberals are officially psychotic.
a stroke of pure genius and cheeky all at once. bravo señor desantis, bravo
Never heard so much complain from fakenews when Biden has been doing the same thing for months
Send a few more thousand migrants to those woke Libs in Martha's Vineyard including some MS-13 fellows.
Never believe DeSantis as he tries to clean up his botched mess by saying he was trying to help them. DeSantis could have done for those immigrants in Florida what Mass is now doing for them. He’s is a political con trying to back step his horrendous actions
People trafficking
Ron DeSantis hit the liberals at their most of sensitive spot. Let’s talk about the country but, this is their most sensitive spot.
Boohoo, you are a sanctuary city you dougheads!
Eccelent ,good peoe there ,need few thousends more .
Republicans in the Florida state house are complaining about the cost of this stunt.
DeSantis spent $12,300 per asylum seeker.
So this stunt was a money maker for his friends too
Goooo Ron!!!
Send them all!😅 Texas and Florida are tired of paying for them.
18 U.S. Code § 1201 Kidnapping by Entagelment
If you lure enduce or make promises you are guilty of kidnapping
Abbott & DeSantis promised Jobs Housing Food English lessons
None of that was waiting for them.
These people are NOT ILLEGALs They ALL went directly to a Border Crossing station and applied for political asylum.
Texas are FULL!!! Florida are FULL! Why democratic cities do not want to help ??

God bless the democrats. Now they are welcoming the poor into Martha’s Vineyard. There has never been a better time to migrate to the good ol’ USA. Thanx Joe.

When you send the effects of their democratic immigration policies to their doorstep it is easy to see what their compassion is about. Compassion is demanded from the negatively impacted people in border towns not from them that are living in luxury enclave like martha's vineyard that support these policies.
When liberals do it IT'S GREAT!
Are you reporters truthfully that blind that you think it's a political to send people to a sanctuary city! They have been begging the federal government to help with the thousands and thousands and thousands that cross the border and they won't help them. Does Santa sends 50 people and you're outraged! Go down to the border if you're really outraged and see what's happening. You are so out of touch!
Aren't there laws against transporting illegals across state lines?
All governors on border states should send thousands of migrants to Martha's vineyard on a weekly basis
Someone plz help me understand… What did you expect? You are claiming to be a "sanctuary" but 50-100ppl is "OUT OF CONTROL!" but Texas having +5k PER DAY is supposed to just "deal with it"?🤔
They have been BEGGING Biden for over a year to enforce the law & not allow million+ ppl but u do nothing now 50-100ppl get sent to you now it's all hands on deck? 🤨🤦♂️
Are Ron DeSantis and Greg Abbott now in the human trafficking business? Using government resources to import and export human life for their own personal and political gain.
Well, beggars can't be choosers. They should be happy to be in one of the most exclusive communities in the nation. You all are just fine with Biden flying them all over the country in the middle of the night, but this is just going too far! LOL Hey, we were told the border was secure, so I guess we've all been lied to. Get over it.
we want a secure southern border. states cannot afford additional people on social government programs. this will not end well if we continue on this trajectory, remember the truckload trailer of dead people trying to cross the border…
The elitist hypocrisy of liberals.
Martha vineyard people send the immigrants away from Martha’s Vineyard to a base.
NOT IN MY BACK YARD😅😂😅😂😅😂.
just more we have to pay for! As Americans are standing on. Corners homeless and hungry
Cover Martha’s vinyard with Soviet style housing block skyscrapers financed with Democrat dollars.
Prosecute Biden Harris!!!!
Aiding and abetting fentanyl dealers distribute weapons of mass destruction across the the country, human trafficking, dereliction of duty, treason!!!
Awesome!!! Like Biden has been doing for months. Flying migrants everywhere. I see nothing wrong here. Beverly hills next
I'm so glad to see Democrats finally helping….oh wait..they already kicked them out. Pfffft the racist left shows its true colors
I love how these lefties can barely contain their seething anger for having to help these people they preach about caring for so much leftists are the most loathsome people I've ever seen 🤣🤣🤣🇺🇲🍻
