25. Sounds like the Post just asked the actual participants on the scene, is all.

Post checking the company behind the pickups of Manhattan workers...

A driver of one of the vans at the designated pick-up site, a corner in Corona, told The Post on Saturday that he was headed to Florida.

He said he was under contract with a water and debris company. The firm did not answer its phone despite repeated attempts to call by The Post.

Firsthand quotes.

A rep for FEMA told The Post on Sunday that the agency is not involved.

A spokesperson for Mayor Eric Adams said City Hall was not involved in the transport of any migrants. Florida officials did not return requests for comment.

Not saying you're wrong about the Post, either, but at this time, there's no other on the scene media coverage.
