California has asked the US Justice Deparetment to investigate Florida’s shipping migrants TO California and Massachuttes …
The Florida Attorney General wants to Feds to leave their export business alone…
Texas HAS also shipped migrants to several cities and New York City has sent some they have received as far as to China…..
Florida’s Republican attorney general, in a Thursday letter to the Justice Department, shot back at California Democrats who urged the DOJ to investigate the state over migrant flights to California and Martha’s Vineyard, contending that the transfers were legal.
California Democrat Gov. Gavin Newsom and his state’s attorney general have called Florida’s transport of migrants from New Mexico to Sacramento “cruel” and a “political stunt.” Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody has responded by labeling a decision by Newsom and California Attorney General Rob Bonta to ask federal authorities to investigate both the California and Massachusetts flights “not a legal request” and called their actions a “political stunt.”
Moody on Thursday sent a three-page letter to U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland outlining why he should ignore the request from California officials.
“California’s letter requesting that the U.S. Department of Justice investigate Florida is a ridiculous political stunt,” Moody said in a statement. “Our voluntary immigration relocation program is lawful, and California’s request fails to identify any violation of federal law. As an Attorney General who leads hundreds of highly-qualified lawyers and has led dozens of legal challenges against this administration, it is jarring that California is not competent enough to articulate even a minimal legal basis for its request.”
Moody, in her letter to Garland, also questioned why Newsom and Bonta were only requesting an investigation of the DeSantis administration and not GOP Texas Gov. Greg Abbott or Democratic New York City Mayor Eric Adams over their migrant relocation efforts.
Abbott has bused more than 20,000 migrants to Democrat-led cities like Washington, D.C., New York City and Chicago while Adams has transported migrants to Florida, Texas, Delaware and as far away as China. By comparison, DeSantis in total has flown about 85 migrants to Martha’s Vineyard and Sacramento…..
