Justice investigates the transfer of immigrants
On Tuesday, a state judge ruled that the DeSantis administration must turn over all records and communications related to the Martha's Vineyard flights, as requested by the Florida Center for Government Accountability. Florida's Republican governor has 20 days to turn over these records.

On the other hand, the sheriff of Bexar County (Texas), Democrat Javier Salazar, is investigating DeSantis for authorizing these immigrant flights. Also, a group of illegals, backed by lawyers linked to far-left billionaire George Soros, filed a class action lawsuit against the Florida governor.
Arrival and departure from Martha's Vineyard
Back in September, DeSantis sent a flight of 50 illegal immigrants to Martha's Vineyard as part of a Republican strategy to ease immigration tensions in their states and protest the Biden Administration's inaction on the border crisis.
The island of Martha's Vineyard (Massachusetts) is a summer resort for the rich and famous, including Democratic presidential families such as the Obamas and Clintons. This is a place that claimed to welcome illegals with open arms. However, after the planes arrived, they condemned the situation by saying that they were suffering a "humanitarian crisis" and just a few hours later removed the illegals from the island.
The immigrants were taken to Cape Cod, more than 40 miles from the millionaires' haven. They were transported by buses provided by federal and local administrations.
