Florida Governor Ron DeSantis (R) is cracking down and taking switch action to protect his state from an influx of illegal aliens from Haiti, as the country descends into total bedlam.
Violent gangs have overtaken the impoverished nation of Haiti, burning police stations, setting thousands of prisoners free onto the streets of the capital city of Port-au-Prince, and even attacking the airport.
As a result of the violence, Haiti’s Prime Minister Ariel Henry caved to the pressure and announced he still step down once a new presidential cabinet is established.
Now DeSantis is sending hundreds of soldiers to South Florida. He announced Wednesday in a social media post:
For quite some time, the State of Florida has been dedicating significant resources to combat illegal vessels coming to Florida from countries such as Haiti.
Given the circumstances in Haiti, I have directed the Division of Emergency Management, the Florida State Guard, and state law enforcement agencies to deploy over 250 additional officers and soldiers and over a dozen air and sea craft to the southern coast of Florida to protect our state.
No state has done more to supplement the (under-resourced) U.S. Coast Guard’s interdiction efforts; we cannot have illegal aliens coming to Florida.

According to a press release from DeSantis’ office, he is deploying the following:
- The Florida Department of Law Enforcement: 39 additional officers
- The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission: 23 additional officers with 8 additional seacraft
- The Florida National Guard: 48 additional Guardsmen with four additional helicopters
- The Florida highway Patrol: 30 additional officers with an additional aircraft and drones for surveillance
- Florida State Guard: 133 soldiers to the Keys
The statement declares: “Illegal immigrants feel empowered to enter the sovereign territory of the United States because of the federal government’s refusal to diligently enforce our immigration laws and protect the integrity of the border. When a state faces teh possibility of invasion, it has the right and duty to defend its territory and people. Under Governor Ron DeSantis, Florida will act.”
