A Florida Democratic state senator has sued to block Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis from orchestrating any more flights carrying migrants to other states.

Jason Pizzo, a Florida Democratic senator representing Miami, filed a lawsuit on Thursday night, alleging that the governor violated the law when he tapped into the $12 million set aside for migrant transport in this year's state budget.

Last week, DeSantis took credit for chartering two planes to transport 48 Venezuelan migrants from San Antonio, Texas, to Martha's Vineyard, as a political stunt in protest of President Joe Biden's immigration policies.

Pizzo says in his lawsuit that DeSantis' actions were in violation of state law because the budget stipulates that the funds may be used for "the transport of unauthorized aliens from this state consistent with federal law." The flights originated in Texas and made a brief stop in the Florida Panhandle before heading to Massachusetts.

3. I remember when he yelled at the high school kids at a photo op

Because they were wearing masks. No doubt their parents and teachers told the kids to wear them. He was so vicious they took their masks off. I knew who he was right away after that. He didn’t care that he hurt their feelings. It looked to me like he enjoyed it

6. DeSatan sure tries hard to look like Traitortrump.

Look at the fake smile. Put some orange on his face and yellow in his hair and he'd look like his deity.

He even stands with that awkward, forward lean with both arms hanging beyond the gut as if to catch himself when he falls over.
