ORLANDO, Fla. — For hours Tuesday, Delaware officials prepared for a possible unannounced wave of migrants sent by Gov. Ron DeSantis to land at an airport less than 20 miles from the vacation home of President Joe Biden near Rehoboth Beach.
But as of early evening, a planeload of migrants had not arrived in Delaware, and the officials and volunteers who had waited for their arrival began to go home.
Speculation arose early Tuesday after one of two planes that flew 48 mostly Venezuelan migrants from Texas to Martha’s Vineyard last week was scheduled to leave San Antonio and travel to Delaware Coastal Airport in Georgetown, Delaware, according to FlightAware, an aviation-tracking website.
