White House: Governors sending migrants to Martha’s Vineyard and DC is “cruel stint”

Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis admitted to sending two planes carrying migrants to Martha’s Vineyard while Texas Gov. Greg Abbott said his state intentionally sent two buses of migrants to the Vice President’s home in Washington, DC. The White House called the acts a “cruel, premeditated political stunt.” It’s the latest in a series of moves by Republicans governors to send migrants to liberal areas of the country to protest the lack of southern border security. Former Congressman Charlie Crist is the Democratic candidate for governor in Florida, running against DeSantis. He previously ran the state as a Republican governor. He joins AC360 to react to what is happening to these migrants. Plus, CNN Anchor and Correspondent Richard Quest was able to pay his respects to Queen Elizabeth in Westminster Hall where her body is lying in state until her funeral Monday.
