Proposal to fly migrants to Florida, other states scrapped after Trump intervenes

A plan by U.S. Customs and Border Protection to ease pressure at processing stations in Texas by potentially flying migrants to other states fell apart this weekend after the White House intervened and President Donald Trump declared the country"FULL," forcing CBP to backpedal and look for new ways to handle the thousands of undocumented migrants arriving each week.

"We understand the governor spoke to the president and we've been informed they're not coming to south Florida," he told ABC News on Friday."I'm thankful to our governor and our elected officials for working together to determine and solve a problem." CBP officials scrambled to respond on Friday, convening a call with reporters in which an official confirmed that federal border authorities were considering whether other available facilities might be able to process migrants. The official said two flights had already been used, including one from Texas to San Diego.

By Saturday, however, DeSantis was already on the phone with Trump. According to the Republican governor, Trump told DeSantis that he"did not approve, nor would approve, sending immigrants who illegally cross the border to Florida."

Another stark difference between what would have happened if socialist Gillum had been elected.

Let’s call them what they are: they’re not even migrants, they are ILLEGAL border crossers. Hint: they are criminals and should be treated as such

Fly them to Palo Alto...let’s see what happens

He said 'No way they're flying, get them on a bus'.

Funny how everybody is now playing the NIMBY game.

Intervenes in his own policy? What kind of headline is that?

He only intervened because a red state governor objected. GovRonDeSantis
