>Vertol has so far been paid $1.56 million for the migrant relocation program and has completed only one of three flights it initially agreed to. As a result, the cost per migrant transported so far works out to about $32,000 per person, a number that includes hotel stays, ground transportation in Texas and other costs.

Forced them to prepay so they lost money on flights that never happened. Didn't produce a cost breakdown. And yet Florida agreed.

Very interested to read future articles about Vertol and their connections.

when $32,000 is a life changing amount of money to many yet it’s spent to just transport people for a political stunt.

Lest anyone EVER claim republicans are better with money or in favor of “small” government…just point them to this absolute horseshit waste of money.

This is why we can’t have nice things.

Seems Vertol was engaged in interstate commerce... which should subject them to an investigation by the FBI for fraud (cuz we know neither Texas nor Floriduh will conduct any type of investigation for the presence of a state crime).
