The governor of Florida took credit for sending planeloads of migrants to Martha's Vineyard, Massachusetts, in order to force authorities in another state to take responsibility for them.
Around 50 migrants arrived in two planes at 3 p.m. local time, with no advance warning, according to a Massachusetts state senator.
The video of the migrants getting into a van was shown by Fox News Digital.

The two planes with illegal immigrants that arrived in Martha's Vineyard today were part of the state's relocation program to transport illegal immigrants to sanctuary destinations.

The community helped the migrants and put them in a church.
The island put together 50 beds, giving everyone a good meal, providing a play area for the children, and making sure people have the healthcare and support they need. He wrote that he was a community that supported immigrants.
The photos were of the makeshift accommodations.
The move was a cruel political stunt. He said the migrants arrived on a charter flight from Texas and appeared to be from Venezuela.
This is repulsive. He described the ruse as "fundamentally racist tactics."
In recent weeks, the Republican-led states of Texas and Arizona have sent thousands of illegal immigrants to other parts of the country.
They say that President Joe Biden's policies are to blame for the rise in illegal immigration. The areas that have been sent to become "sanctuary cities" do not cooperate with efforts to enforce migration laws.
There are rumors that he is positioning himself for a bid for the presidency in four years.
Barack Obama and Bill and Hillary Clinton spend a lot of time on Martha's Vineyard. Locals told The Times that they were concerned about the town's ability to host migrants in the future.
Pushaw trolled liberals by using the stunt.
The residents of Martha's Vineyard should be happy about this. They get a sanctuary city of their own after voting for it. Illegal aliens will make the town more diverse. She asked, right?
