Migrants who were flown to Martha’s Vineyard in Massachusetts are grateful to Florida Governor Ron DeSantis (R) for sending them to the island, an MSNBC reporter said.

Members of the media and others have claimed the roughly 50 people who were flown from Texas to Florida and eventually to the island were taken advantage of.

Some have even claimed DeSantis is guilty of human trafficking after people allegedly acting on his behalf corralled immigrants onto planes with promises of jobs after they crossed the border.

MSNBC’s Cristina Londoño was on location on the island Friday. She reported she had spoken with some of the roughly 50 migrants flown in by DeSantis, who used state funds to transport people from Texas to New England.

The network played a clip from one man who said instead of “hurting” him and others, DeSantis did them a “favor” sending them to the island.

Two others shared a similar sentiment.
