The sheriff of Bexar County (San Antonio) is investigating the flight from San Antonio to Martha’s Vineyard. There may or may not be crimes involved, but if there are his reach extends to Florida. He’s also right: whether or not it’s criminal, it’s wrong.BREAKING NEWS: Authorities in Texas have opened a criminal investigation into Gov. Ron DeSantis’ operation to fly roughly 50 Venezuela migrants from Texas to Martha’s Vineyard last week. https://t.co/KkTp7xCdEa

In response to a request for comment, Jeremy Redfern, DeSantis’ deputy press secretary did not answer with words.
Instead, he emailed a screenshot of a news story with the headline: “Bexar County Sheriff Salazar says Biden admin’s handling of immigration ‘isn’t working.’ “Abbott is at least punching up, and trying to focus the conversation. DeSantis is punching down and keeping the conversation about him.
No migrants who crossed the border Sunday in Eagle Pass, Texas, told the Miami Herald they wanted to go to Florida. Instead, most hoped to travel to New York.
They spoke of a dangerous journey to the United States and an uncertain future now that they’re here.
None had the money for a $50 bus ticket to San Antonio, the nearest city.
Advocates say that makes them easy prey for scammers.

There's a bit more to it (of course there is):Over/under 12 hours before Trump starts publicly criticizing/attacking Judge Dearie.

I’m taking the under.
My favorite part is that Trump doesn't want to have to provide any information about his supposed declassifications under early November-presumably avoiding the need to acknowledge he lied until after the midterm elections. https://t.co/4bM8kYjARN

Trump also whining that it looks like the Special Master has asked both sides to prepare legal briefs as to whether any Rule 41(g) motion should be litigated before Magistrate Judge Bruce Reinhart (the judge who signed off on the MAL search warrant) & Trump doesn't want that.

So Trump has to argue why a Rule 41 motion can’t be heard according to the Rule. Which is something his lawyers should have thought about before filing their…whatever-it-is… in Cannon’s court."The court must receive evidence on any factual issue necessary to decide the motion. If it grants the motion, the court must return the property to the movant, but may impose reasonable conditions to protect access to the property and its use in later proceedings." 2/2

Team Trump’s letter to Judge Dearie suggests they’re like the dog that catches the car and has no idea what to do next

Dearie should simply decide that he is going to accept the government’s assessment that docs that are marked classified are classified; if Trump wants to wait until he is charged to litigate declassification it’s unclear what the point is in reviewing them further now 🤷🏽♀️
