The plane flew through Portugal to get to Tampa International Airport, landing around 7:45 p.m. Seven evacuees were taken to Orlando this afternoon.

It also states, “There are more than 20,000 Americans, including Floridians in Israel who wish to return home but are unable to do so.

And that is what ultimately matters. They're out and home regardless who flew them out

I'm sure those 270 individuals don't care what party or politician got them out

Whether it's Trump going to East Palestine, Ohio or DeSantis flying 270 Americans home, this current administration seems to have mentally and physically disconnected themselves when it comes to engaging the world outside Washington, DC
