Any “consent” these migrants gave was under duress and thus legally void (if it was even asked for, let alone asked for in their native language). Also, if consent was asked for we’d have examples of people who refused to grant it—we don’t. Kidnapping should also be investigated. — PolitiTweet.org

Last time DOJ made a human smuggling arrest: yesterday. Last time Florida’s GOP governor, Ron DeSantis, criminally smuggled humans: yesterday. Maybe DOJ should explain to America why Ron DeSantis is immune from prosecution for federal crimes? Which other politicians are immune? — PolitiTweet.org

Seth Abramson @SethAbramson

DeSantis moved humans across state lines against their will in a way that endangered them, and did so for profit—fundraising—which is the definition of human smuggling, a crime punishable by 10 to 20 years in prison. Maybe we stop pussyfooting and start calling this what it was? — PolitiTweet.org

Seth Abramson @SethAbramson

I am informed by experts on the subject that the crime Ron DeSantis committed yesterday was human smuggling rather than human trafficking—two terms often conflated in major media (e.g., ABC News just yesterday). Apologies for the confusion. Ron DeSantis is a criminal. #RemoveRon — PolitiTweet.org

Massachusetts is a donor state—it gives more to the federal government than it takes out. Florida is a state the rest of us babysit—giving far more to it than it gives to the government—due to its mismanagement. Today Florida’s governor human-trafficked migrants to Massachusetts. https://t.co/1gnq5kNwUH — PolitiTweet.org

@JoseMVazquez1 You know that blue states put more into the federal government financially than they take out, and red states take out more than they put in, and the second we blue states get fed up with this the red states will sink into anarchy and universal poverty, right?

@ElizabethToome6 I’m a Massachusetts native. I’d have expected nothing less of us. The problem is that these Republican governors will keep sending planes and keep raising money off the sending of these planes until they induce new crises off their human trafficking. This isn’t an isolated event. — PolitiTweet.org

Seth Abramson @SethAbramson

What is beyond question is that humans are being moved across state lines against their will for profit, and that this is being done by men with an augmented responsibility to be aware of and follow the laws of the United States. So there is certainly enough to investigate here. — PolitiTweet.org

Seth Abramson @SethAbramson

That said, only a very very small—vanishingly small—percentage of lawyers are expert in human trafficking legislation, and I’m not one of them. So I would love to hear additional discussion from experts and law enforcement about the legality of what DeSantis and Abbott are doing. — PolitiTweet.org

Seth Abramson @SethAbramson

Keep in mind that Ron DeSantis will raise money off this decision/policy. So before you assume there is no human trafficking here, realize that the man is literally trafficking humans across state lines against their will for profit—doing so in knowing contravention of the law. — PolitiTweet.org

(PS2) Kudos to the reader who called this “human trafficking”—as that seems to be the size of it. With all the MAGAs saying they oppose human trafficking, I knew we’d find out they’re wildly enthusiastic about it (“every accusation is a confession”). Now it’s finally happened. — PolitiTweet.org

Seth Abramson @SethAbramson

(PS) Keep in mind that DeSantis didn’t inform Massachusetts he was doing this. As ever, “The cruelty is the point.” He wants those migrants to suffer. He wants them to be scared. He wants them not to know where their next meal is coming from. Sounds like domestic terrorism to me. — PolitiTweet.org

Seth Abramson @SethAbramson

This sh*t has to stop. If DeSantis can’t handle governing his state, he should resign. Only a coward would deem his actions brave. There’s a reason we distinguish between state governors and vile internet trolls; governors aren’t supposed to just download their angst onto others. — PolitiTweet.org
