🇺🇸🇲🇽Florida sending 800 National Guard troops to Texas-Mexico border
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is sending 800 of the state’s National Guard troops to work for one month along the Texas border with Mexico as Texas Gov. Greg Abbott called on non-border states to do more to help with an expected increase in migration in the coming weeks.
Abbott called in a letter on other governors to provide help at the border following last week’s end Title 42.
He wrote he is still preparing for the increase that even the federal government has predicted could reach 150,000 and will include an increase in the smuggling of drugs and people across the border.

🇺🇸 The U.S. cities Biden is flying hundreds of thousands of migrants in controversial program that sparked national security fears
The vast majority of migrant flights President Joe Biden's White House is transporting directly from foreign countries to U.S. airports to bypass the southern border are landing in Florida.
A new analysis from the Center for Immigration Studies (CIS) reveals that 326,000 migrants from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua and Venezuela arrived in Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis' state since the program started in January 2023.
Lawyers for Biden's immigration agencies refused to disclose through a FOIA request data on which airports were receiving the undocumented migrants, claiming it would compromise safety and create national security 'vulnerabilities.'

🇺🇸 Arizona judge declares mistrial in the case of a rancher accused of fatally shooting a migrant
An Arizona judge declared a mistrial Monday in the case of a rancher accused of fatally shooting a Mexican man on his property near the U.S.-Mexico border.
The decision came after jurors failed to reach a unanimous decision after more than two full days of deliberation in trial of George Alan Kelly, 75, who was charged with second-degree murder in the Jan. 30, 2023, shooting of Gabriel Cuen-Buitimea.
🗣 “Based upon the jury’s inability to reach a verdict on any count,” Superior Court Judge Thomas Fink said, “This case is in mistrial.”
The Santa Cruz County Attorney’s Office can still decide whether to retry Kelly for any charge, or drop the case all together.
