Ron DeSantis Takes Credit for Flying Asylum Seekers to California
-----------------------------------------------------------------

Another 2024 hopeful, Florida Governor Ron De Santis, took credit for
flying South American asylum seekers from the U.S. border to Sacramento,
California. Florida arranged the flights, but De Santis blamed
California for policies he says incentivize immigration. California has
called the flights "state-sanctioned kidnapping" and is considering
criminal charges.
