earlier this morning two buses full of migrants arrived in washington, d.c., from texas. texas governor greg abbott ordered that the migrants be dropped off on vice president harris doorstep at her residence at the naval observatory. governor abbott and governor ducey of arizona already bussed thousands of migrants to other states in recent weeks. also today, florida governor ron desantis proudly claims he chartered two flights to bring 50 migrants from texas to martha s vineyard in massachusetts. there were seven families on those planes, including children. if this was his idea of a solution to the migrant issues, you would think that the governor would have alerted the governor of massachusetts to this. but these plane loads of migrants reported arrived without any warning to local officials who scrambled to set them up at a local church. here s how desantis sees it. we re not a sanctuary state, and it s better to be able to go to a sanctuary jurisdiction. yes, we will

between policy, human rights, and yes, the trolling politics of the maga era. ron desantis is trying to cruelly exploit and use human beings as a type of prop for a trolling political points a well as endear himself to apparently people who in public call the shots with what this supposedly mighty powerful governor does, because he is the most powerful person in the state of florida in the government system, but apparently he has bosses that outrank him there, and they don t live in florida. a lot of them are based around the east coast in fox news. we ll explain. the maga governor has flown 50 undocumented immigrants, including minors or children, on a plane up to martha s vineyard. so this is a real thing, but it s also a type of trolling performance art designed to trigger or upset liberals. now, one immigrant is saying that they were misled about this or lied to, that they were told initially that some sort of refugee association would be involved in this project, that th
asylum seekers in new york today and what officials say are the largest single day of migrants in the city so far. a small amount of rain. it is more than enough to force dozens of people to be evacuated from a national park in new mexico. health officials trying a new tactic to protect the most vulnerable from monkeypox by distributing the vaccine at pride parades. we begin with what s been the largest single day arrival of migrants in new york city to date. a mix of individuals now starting a new life in new york. after a 1700 mile trip from texas. these people to some degree are political pawns in a fight over u.s. immigration. texas governor abbott who sent thousands of migrants to cities like new york and washington, d.c. say it is president biden s border policies that forced the hand. democrats like new york mayor called the program inhumane with migrants said to be arriving hungry, thirsty and sick. abbott is just acting out of desperation was political said. this i
