DeSantis Says Moving Migrants Exposed Democrat ‘Virtue-Signaling’ – Border Now ‘Front-Burner Issue’

Governor Ron DeSantis (R-FL) said Monday on MSNBC’s “Hannity” that by sending migrants to Martha’s Vineyard, he exposed that Democrats’ sanctuary jurisdictions are “virtue-signaling” and made immigration and the border “a front-burner issue.”

DeSantis said, “You had millions of people since Biden has been president, illegally coming across the Southern border. Did they freak out on that? No. You have had migrants die in the Rio Grande. You had 50 die in Texas a trailer because they were neglected. Was there a freak-out about that? No. You’ve had criminal aliens get across that southern border and victimize Americans, killing some, raping some. Was there any type of outrage about that? No. And then, of course, we know fentanyl deaths are at an all-time high.”

He continued, “It is only when 50 get put into Martha’s Vineyard, which wasn’t saying they didn’t want this, they said they wanted this. They said they are a sanctuary jurisdiction. These are people who were basically destitute and then put in a situation where they could have succeeded, but that was all virtue-signaling. Not only did they not welcome them, they departed them the next day with the National Guard. Give me a break.”

He added, “I think what we have been able to do is show that this border is a disaster. Biden failed on this as much or more than any other policy. People are talking about it. We want solutions as Americans.”

DeSantis concluded, “People need to press the case in the mid-terms. The economy will be a big issue. Crime will be a huge issue. This immigration and border is now a front-burner issue. This is one where republicans have the advantage without question.”

‘They Said they Were a Sanctuary Destination – Give Me a Break!” – Governor DeSantis Goes Off on Martha’s Vineyard Hypocrites After Immigrants Deported (VIDEO)

Governor Ron DeSantis joined Sean Hannity on Monday night.

This was after a far-left Texas Sheriff “>opened a criminal investigation into Governor DeSantis’s operation of sending illegal aliens shipped to Florida to Democrat strongholds and sanctuary communities like Martha’s Vineyard.

Bexar County Sheriff Javier Salazar does not have a problem with Joe Biden and border czar Kamala Harris flying millions of illegal aliens into the country’s interior every single night. He is only upset with the migrants DeSantis is sending to sanctuary communities.

Governor DeSantis pushed back against the garbage lawsuit against him later today.

Via Florida’s Voice.

“Immigrants have been more than willing to leave Bexar County after being abandoned, homeless, and ‘left to fend for themselves.’ Florida gave them an opportunity to seek greener pastures in a sanctuary jurisdiction that offered greater resources for them, as we expected,” said Taryn Fenske, the communications director for Gov. Ron DeSantis, in response to the Bexar County Sheriff’s Office announcement.

Florida’s Voice previously reported on the published brochures given to the migrants before boarding the flights. The brochure told migrants where they would be going and listed a variety of benefits and services Massachusetts provided to some refugees. The information was taken directly from the Massachusetts’ government website.

On Monday night DeSantis went even further with his comments on the hypocritical American left.

Governor DeSantis: They said they were a sanctuary destination. These were people who were basically destitute and then put into a situation where they could have succeeded but that was all virtue signaling. And not only did they not welcome them, they deported them the next day with the National Guard. Give me a break!
