Republican presidential candidate Ron DeSantis is becoming quite the serial kidnapper. Once, when he had black children on stage with him holding up anti-critical race theory signs, MSNBC’s Joy Reid declared, “This is actionable kidnapping.” And then there was that time he flew fewer than 50 migrants to the sanctuary city that is Martha’s Vineyard. Busybody California Gov. Gavin Newsom wrote a letter to Attorney General Merrick Garland asking the DOJ to consider kidnapping charges against DeSantis.

And as Twitchy reported Monday, Newsom cited California’s criminal code and alleged DeSantis of kidnapping migrants and flying them to the sanctuary city of Sacramento.

Yeah, that whole “kidnapping” thing was debunked back in September, when a CNN reporter talked to the immigrants and they all said they were happy to make the trip north. Nobody is “forcing” illegal immigrants to get on buses and planes — they’re happy for the free travel to sanctuary cities that have promised housing and jobs for them. Maybe cities like New York should be charged with false advertising, persuading migrants to come there with the promise of shelter and work.

Law professor Lawrence Tribe thinks Newsom is onto something, courtesy of a report in the New York Times.

“Utterly deafening.” You tool, he explained it when it happened.

Clowns like Newsom float ideas like “kidnapping,” and the New York Times dutifully writes up an article about DeSantis’ “silence” on the kidnapping “charges.”

Are they going to arrest Barack Obama for flying illegal immigrants all over the country?
