Gov. Gavin Newsom took a jab at Ron DeSantis on Monday, calling for kidnapping charges against the Florida governor after a group of migrants was dropped off in Sacramento.
Newsom took to Twitter saying, "@RonDeSantis, you small, pathetic man. This isn't Martha's Vineyard. Kidnapping charges?"
If true, the 16 Colombian and Venezuelan migrants who turned up at the Roman Catholic Church diocese's headquarters in Sacramento on Friday would be the latest to have been moved from a Republican-led state to one led by Democrats. The migrants were transported from Texas to New Mexico and then flown by charter plane to California's capital, where they were dropped off in front of the diocese's headquarters, California officials said.
DeSantis, who is seeking the Republican nomination to run for president, has been a fierce critic of federal immigration policy under President Joe Biden and has heavily publicized Florida's role in past instances in which migrants were transported to Democratic-led states. When questions arose around the legality of the Martha's Vineyard fight because it originated in Texas, not Florida, in apparent violation of budgetary language, DeSantis had Republicans legislators create a program in his office dedicated to migrant relocations and specify that the state can transport migrants from locations anywhere in the country.Neither Vertol Systems nor DeSantis' office responded to requests for comment.
