A Texas sheriff’s office announced felony charges had been filed surrounding illegal immigrant flights from San Antonio to Martha’s Vineyard in Massachusetts organized by Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis last fall.

The investigation was launched in September by Bexar County Sheriff Javier Salazar, a Democrat endorsed by the hard-left Texas Organizing Project, which opposes the deportation of illegal immigrants while supporting the end of “mass incarceration.”
