The cost of human trafficking is tragic. Young girls coerced into a life of prostitution. People smuggled into the United States in car trunks, almost airless truck compartments, and worse. Who is behind this? Who is paving the way? The investigation is leading straight to the Biden administration and its practice of flying illegal immigrants straight into American big cities in the middle of the night, where those illegal immigrants fall right into the hands of organized crime and gangs.

FNC: “Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis appeared on ‘The Ingraham Angle’ on Monday to discuss his office’s report that more than 70 night-time flights moving migrants from the border landed in Jacksonville since the summer.

There were more than 1.7 million migrant encounters in Fiscal Year 2021, and more than 192,000 in September alone. Critics have accused the Biden administration of fueling the surge with its policies, including “catch-and-release.” The Biden administration has insisted upon an explanation for the surge which relies on ‘root causes’ like violence, corruption, and poverty in Central America.”

Governor Ron DeSantis: “So, the border is obviously a disaster and some people say, ‘Well, that’s a problem for Texas or Arizona.’ Well, actually, the Biden administration puts people on planes and flies them into Florida in the wee hours of the morning. They’ve done over 70 flights in the last six months, dump people here. And we had—a few weeks ago—one of those people that Biden dumped, ended up committing a murder in northeast Florida. So, these are crimes that would not have happened but for Biden’s recklessness. So, our view is, if they’re going to be dumping, we want to be able to facilitate transfer to places like Delaware, and, so, we have $8 million in my new budget to be able to do that. We also look to these carriers that the federal government is contracting with, and we are going to pass legislation that says, ‘If you are facilitating Biden’s policies, which is effectively a mass human smuggling operation, you are not going to be able to do business with the state of Florida or other local governments, and we are going to charge you restitution for each individual that you are bringing.”

DeSantis staff verifies the governor’s allegations. “Over 70 air charter flights [on] jetliner airliners coming from the southwest border have landed at Jacksonville International Airport,” Larry Keefe, DeSantis’s public safety chief, told The Washington Examiner.

“On average, there’s 36 passengers on each of these flights. And that has been going on over the course of the summer through September. We’re in a sad situation of trying to run an investigation. Who is facilitating this travel? How are they getting here? Who are the support people? Who are the sponsors?” Keefe said. It seems that question leads directly to the Oval Office.
