Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis says he’ll send Haitian migrants to Martha’s Vineyard

Migrants fleeing the terrifying violence of gang-controlled Haiti will join others getting shipped out to Democratic strongholds like Martha’s Vineyard, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has warned.

“We do have our transport program… that’s going to be operational,” DeSantis told podcaster Dana Loesch on Tuesday of the mass busing of migrants away from border states.

“Haitians land in the Florida Keys, their next stop very well may be Martha’s Vineyard.”

The Sunshine State is located only about 840 miles from Haiti, where armed groups have taken control following the resignation of Prime Minister Ariel Henry.

Roughly 1.4 million Haitians are now on the verge of famine, aid groups say, and more than 15,000 people have been left homeless.

DeSantis has deployed dozens of officers and soldiers, alongside helicopters, drones and boats to patrol the South Florida waterways for any ships arriving from the country, Politico reports.

Their efforts apparently paid off, with DeSantis claiming that the state’s Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission caught a boat carrying 25 Haitian refugees — including five children.

It was also transporting firearms, night vision goggles and drugs off the Florida coast, DeSantis told Loesch.

“Look Dana, I’ve got to defend my state,” he said. “I’ve got enough issues just dealing with people fleeing from blue states moving to Florida.”
