Original Note:
DeSantis’ claim “They called out the National Guard and deported them within 24 hours” is false no matter which definition someone decides to use. They went to the base two days later and the Guard was there for logistical support, not to “deport” them. https://www.factcheck.org/2023/03/migrants-desantis-flew-to-marthas-vineyard-were-not-deported-the-next-day-as-he-claimed/ https://www.masslive.com/news/2022/09/migrants-flown-to-marthas-vineyard-will-now-be-offered-shelter-at-joint-base-cape-cod-shelter.html https://www.capeandislands.org/local-news/2022-09-19/migrants-at-the-base-heres-how-theyre-set-up-and-what-comes-next
