DeSantis Working to Stop Illegal Aliens Being Shipped to Florida

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is working with the Florida legislature to find a way to stop illegal migrants from being dropped in his state, according to reports.

DeSantis’ office has announced that the government has sent more than 70 flights of migrants to Jacksonville, Florida.

“Over 70 air charter flights [on] jetliner airliners coming from the southwest border have landed at Jacksonville International Airport,” Larry Keefe, DeSantis’ public safety czar, told the Washington Examiner. “On average, there’s 36 passengers on each of these flights. And that has been going on over the course of the summer through September.”

“We’re in a sad situation of trying to run an investigation. Who is facilitating this travel? How are they getting here? Who are the support people? Who are the sponsors?” Keefe asked, according to the report.

Keefe said that the government is staging the migrants in Jacksonville before shipping them all over the east coast by bus.

“We don’t know definitively or specifically as to why Jacksonville is the chosen place,” Keefe said. “[We’re] having to watch and observe — in effect, spy on the government to see what it is that they’re doing in the middle of the night out of these airport facilities.”

The New York Post noted that the disclosure from Keefe follows their report that found similar flights full of migrants arriving at the Westchester County Airport in the middle of the night.

The White House claimed that the flights to New York were only carrying teens and children.

“It is our legal responsibility to safely care for unaccompanied children until they can be swiftly unified with a parent or a vetted sponsor,” the US Department of Health and Human Services told The Post in response to the exposé.

A 24-year-old illegal immigrant from Honduras posed as a 17-year-old and allegedly murdered a man in Jacksonville who had employed and taken him in last month.

Meet the planes. LOAD on buses back to Mexico. The end.

It is the LEGAL responsibility of their Embassy to take these UAC runaways, and human trafficked kids, into their custody and house and feed them and transport them safely back home to their authorities! They are not our citizens. it is kidnapping to keep them here or hand them over to anybody else!

Prosecute the parents and put them in jail in their countries.

We owe these foreign citizens and their minor's NOTHING but transport to their countries authorities.

The US has sent over 70 flights of migrants from the Mexican border to Jacksonville, Florida since the summer — but the Biden administration has not disclosed any information about the clandestine transports, Gov. Ron DeSantis’ office claimed.
The alleged flights — which landed in overnight hours — come as officials struggle to deal with overcrowding at border facilities, according to The Washington Examiner.
“Over 70 air charter flights [on] jetliner airliners coming from the southwest border have landed at Jacksonville International Airport,” Larry Keefe, the Republican governor’s public safety czar, told the outlet.
“On average, there’s 36 passengers on each of these flights. And that has been going on over the course of the summer through September.”
Neither the Department of Justice, Department of Homeland Security, nor Department of Health and Human Services would disclose any information to Florida officials regarding the flights, Keefe told the paper.

How are they getting here? Who are the support people? Who are the sponsors?” Keefe reportedly asked, adding that his office was tipped off to the flights by local police.
Florida officials were aware that Jacksonville, which is along Interstate 95, was being used as a staging area for the migrants, who were taken by bus to locations up and down the coast, the report said.
“We don’t know definitively or specifically as to why Jacksonville is the chosen place,” Keefe said, according to the outlet. “[We’re] having to watch and observe — in effect, spy on the government to see what it is that they’re doing in the middle of the night out of these airport facilities.”
The disclosure comes on the heels of an exclusive Post report that found similar flights full of young migrants arriving in Westchester County Airport under the cover of night.

“It is our legal responsibility to safely care for unaccompanied children until they can be swiftly unified with a parent or a vetted sponsor,” the US Department of Health and Human Services told The Post in response to the exposé.
The concern from the Florida statehouse came after a 24-year-old undocumented immigrant from Honduras, who posed as a 17-year-old and gave officials a fake name, allegedly killed the Jacksonville man who took him in and gave him a job last month.

The victim’s daughter said she believed the murder suspect arrived on one of the secret flights.
