DeSantis plays politics with assassination attempt

At his daily traveling press conference, Gov. Ron DeSantis issued Executive Order 24-197 directing Florida’s law enforcement agencies—the Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) and the Florida Highway Patrol (FHP)—to investigate the assassination attempt against Donald Trump. Executive Order 24-197 can be read here.

DeSantis appointees Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles Executive Director Dave Kerner and FDLE Commissioner Mark Glass sang the chorus.


We need less political theater and more work on reducing property insurance, improving housing affordability and expanding health care coverage. However, those issues are not as easy as spending Florida tax dollars on something the FBI and Secret Service are handling.

Let’s hope the state agencies don’t interfere with the investigation and hurt the prosecution of the crimes committed.
