Florida's governor refused to confirm reports that the state is planning to fly a second group of migrants out of Texas, this time to President Joe Biden's home state of Delaware.
According to records from FlightAware, Ultimate Air Shuttle 11 was scheduled to fly from San Antonio, Texas, to Crestview, Florida, on Tuesday, before heading to Delaware Coastal Airport in Georgetown, Delaware, about an hour from Biden’s home.The San Antonio to Crestview route is the same itinerary that funneled 50 Venezuelan migrants to Martha's Vineyard on Sept. 14.
"The ability to send them back to those states is not rational," Biden said."We're working with Mexico and other countries to see if we can stop the flow.""Yes, we have received word of the flights and we are coordinating closely with state officials," White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said."Our heads up did not come from Gov. DeSantis.
A Texas sheriff on Monday opened an investigation into the flights to Massachusetts, saying he believed there was"some criminal activity involved." "If you can do it at the source and divert to sanctuary jurisdictions, the chance they end up in Florida is much less," DeSantis said."With the sanctuary, the idea is, because they have more benefits or whatever they do, people will be able to stick."
