 Yeah, and by the way just for the record this was voluntary all migrants were put up in hotels given accommodations They were fed. They were showered. They were offered haircuts and and any other services that they were needed, correct? Yeah, not only that they all signed Consent forms to go and then the vendor that that is doing this for Florida Provided them with a packet that had a map of Martha's vineyard It had the numbers for different services on Martha's vineyard And then it had numbers for the overall agencies in Massachusetts that handle things involving immigration and refugees So it was clearly voluntary and all the other nonsense you're hearing. It's just not true You just watched Florida Governor Ronda Santis attempt to shield himself from legal accountability while on Fox News Following news that a sheriff in Texas will be investigating the migrant PR stunt that he just did last week Now we'll come back to what I think he means by saying this quote-unquote nonsense that others are accusing him of but ultimately this was a propaganda attempt by Sean Hannity to Let's Ron DeSantis try to escape culpability but unfortunately for him not only is that already too late But it's getting worse as he's in more hot water as media I had explains migrants flown to Martha's vineyard last week by Florida Governor Ron DeSantis have filed a class action lawsuit against him Alludging they were victims of a conspiracy to falsely imprison them The civil lawsuit was filed in the US district court of Massachusetts Tuesday Just six days after 48 migrants were flown to the island on behalf of DeSantis The governor is listed as a defendant in the 35-page court filing as is the Florida Department of Transportation and its leader Jared Perdue The suit cites four plaintiffs as well as others similarly situated and complains the flights from Texas to Martha's vineyard violated multiple constitutional amendments and were part of a conspiracy quote these migrants who are pursuing the proper channels for lawful immigration status in the United States Experienced cruelty akin to what they fled in their home country the suit states Defendants manipulated them stripped them of their dignity Deprived them of their liberty bodily autonomy due process and equal protection under the law and impermissibly interfered with the federal government's exclusive control over immigration in Furtherance of an unlawful goal and a personal political agenda. So all of the things that they're accusing him of I Hope they win. I hope that they are as successful as they can possibly be with this lawsuit A lot of people don't even realize this but immigrants have constitutional protections This was determined by the Supreme Court So you can't just treat them as if they're trashed to be, you know, humiliated for your political PR stunt You can't do that. So I hope that they're successful in this lawsuit Now we'll talk more about the investigation by the Texas sheriff But first and foremost, I want to get to what what I think anyways Rhonda Santis meant when he said nonsense that he's being accused of I think that he was referring to these accusations that he Transported these human beings across state lines under false pretenses. Well within this lawsuit It does appear as if they are suing for that very reason. Here's a specific sentence that states this the plaintiffs had relied on the Defendants promises support and social services basic human needs of which as recent immigrants They were in particularly desperate need That is them saying he transported us to Martha's vineyard under false pretenses He promised us these things, but he was lying So this nonsense. Well, now that's being litigated in court so Rhonda Santis is going to have to defend himself legally for doing this and It's wrong again. I already stated this I think you already know my bias, but I hope that he loses this lawsuit But there's another element of the story that I want to talk about here And that is the cult of personality forming around Rhonda Santis So recall from a month ago. What happened after the FBI raided Mar-a-Lago? Well, Trump supporters went ballistic as the Daily Beast reports here the FBI faced unprecedented MAGA threats also armed Trump supporters gathered outside of an FBI office in Phoenix as CNN reports But now the same thing is happening with Rhonda Santis So Trump has his cult and they are there to defend him whenever there's any Accountability for his legal wrongdoings or alleged legal wrongdoings But when it comes to Rhonda Santis Well, the same thing is happening because after this sheriff announced that they'd be investigating Rhonda Santis Guess what his supporters did the same thing That Trump supporters did following the FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago So as Vice News explains sheriff Javier Salazar of Bexar County where the flight last week originated announced Monday That he was opening an investigation into the flight The sheriff told reporters that he believes the migrants were lured to Martha's vineyard under false pretenses for a photo op and stranded and that both County and federal laws were broken on Tuesday a spokesperson from the Bexar County Sheriff's office told Vice News in an email That there have been numerous threats and influx of calls to our dispatch and Administrative offices along with hateful emails received since the investigation was announced Additionally as in any instance when our office receives threats Precautionary measures will be made for safety of all personnel the spokesperson said so in the same way that Trump supporters went ballistic Following the FBI raid in Mar-a-Lago Well, Rhonda Santis supporters is doing the same thing now that Rhonda Santis may face some legal accountability for his actions They're bombarding the sheriff's office with threats They're sending hate and it may be to a lesser extent less intense than Trump supporters But nonetheless what I want you to pay attention to is the formation of a new cult of personality in real time There's already sort of a cult of personality around Rhonda Santis But it's certainly not to the extent that there is this cult of personality with Donald Trump But we are witnessing a new political cult for him So this is kind of besides the point with regard to the you know a migrant story But this is how cults are formed essentially in politics and what it tells you is that even if Trump is Not electorally viable if he loses in 2024 or if for whatever reason he can't run for legal issues or legal reasons There's going to be a new political cult that forms because this is what the GOP and their base does It's largely affluent people who support Republicans and that's kind of a generalization But a lot of them support Republicans not necessarily because they believe in the policies that are being espoused by Republicans because What are those policies other than cruelty? So they latch on to these people and It's not necessarily based on substance. It's all Formed due to a cult of personality and we're seeing that in real time with Rhonda Santis So, you know when Rhonda Santis one day is politically irrelevant There'll be a new cult of personality because that's just the way that the GOP's base operates But anyways getting back to this story ultimately, you know, Rhonda Santis might not necessarily be as cocky Now that he's facing legal accountability here, but nonetheless He is going to have to deal with the consequences of his actions potentially He is in hot water will anything come of this will he go to jail? No, that's not gonna happen But will he have to at least defend himself and is that inconvenient? Yes, and I want him to have to defend himself I want him to have to deal with this because you can't just fucking ship 50 people across state lines Because you want to humiliate them and prove a political point. That's not okay So because he possibly broke a federal laws and county laws in Texas I hope that these lawsuits that investigation and this lawsuit from the migrants I hope that their actions are successful and I wish them luck with this endeavor because this cannot be tolerated This is cruel and it's just It's wrong
