I’ve been begging governors who are shipping illegal migrants to Chicago, New York and Washington D.C. to send some to Biden’s Delaware. Now it looks like Ron DeSantis is finally ready to do something. This will apply to illegal migrants illegally crossing the southern border into the US, not to those who are legally seeking refugee status.
He is vowing to “reroute” illegal migrants who arrive in Florida to President Joe Biden’s home state of Delaware.
“That’s why the governor has worked with the legislature, to secure funding to make sure…that people that are coming illegally…that they don’t stay here with their arms crossed, thinking about what they will be able to do. We are going to send that person, frankly, to Delaware, the president’s home state,” Florida Lt. Gov. Jeanette Nuñez said.
However, DeSantis clarified that this does not apply to refugees escaping communist countries.
“It applies to people illegally crossing the southern border who want to come to Florida or who come to Florida because a lot of them say they want to. And if they’re here illegally, then that’s a much different thing than being a refugee. So it does not apply to refugees,” DeSantis said.
DeSantis called it bizarre to compare people who fled communist Cuba to someone running drugs across the southern border.
“Yes, when you’re putting out tweets saying about Castro’s death, he’s just a political leader that people in Cuba are mourning, that’s a disgrace. That’s an insult to the people in this community who have had to flee that tyranny. It’s an insult to the people that have seen that island destroyed. And here we are decades and decades later, and it is a third-world country has so much potential. And you look at the contrast between South Florida and Cuba. I don’t see people getting on rafts to go from Key West to Cuba. I’ve never seen that. I know they want to do that the opposite because they understand how important freedom is,” DeSantis said.
