Florida’s Governor thinks the “inmates run the asylum” in California, leading to riots in the streets there.
In a media availability, Gov. Ron DeSantis denounced the “disgraceful” actions in Los Angeles and defended the Donald Trump administration’s “enforcement of immigration laws” that “the federal government has a right to do.”
“DHS (the Department of Homeland Security) has every right to be enforcing the laws. But you have some of these people, they’re objecting because they don’t want to get kicked out of America, and yet they’re burning the American flag. And yet they’re waving the flag of the country that they don’t want to get sent back to. Can you please make this make sense to me?” DeSantis said.
DeSantis noted that people don’t feel “safe” in Los Angeles or San Francisco because of their approach to law enforcement.
The Governor spent much of Sunday opining about the “riots” in the City of Angels, blasting “legacy media bias” in The Wall Street Journal that called the action “protests.”
He also had an exchange with familiar foil Gavin Newsom, the Governor of California who debated DeSantis in late 2023.
After Newsom asked him if he’d have Trump send the Marines to Miami Beach to quell Spring Break restiveness, DeSantis fired back.
“Spring Break in Miami Beach has been peaceful and quiet the last couple of years because the local and state officials work together to enforce the laws. California should try it sometime,” Newsom said.

Heads up, AG, you have exchanged Newsom for DeSantis in the last sentence.
Trump refers to Newsom as “Newscum” in his online tirades. Then the Supreme Grifter sics ICE on brown people in California to fulfill a “quota” imposed on ICE by Trump, provoking violence in California which DJT uses to rationalize nationalizing the state guard. Trump imagines this will work against Newsom politically. Only on Fox.

I assume that all the second amendment supporters here in Florida will be supporting the good folks of LA when they take up arms against the Federal oppressors. /s

It’s been argued that gun control became an issue in the 1970s after the Black Panthers appeared in public brandishing firearms for self-defense.

Where’s my post? Do the liberal POS at Florida Politics censor comments they don’t like? That’s what Third World authoritarian losers have always done.
Ron is a loser

We here in Florida really need a Governor who is focused on our problems instead of one who is constantly seeking publicity on the issues that he likely believes will make him relevant in his doomed run for president. For goodness sake he can’t even work with the Legislature to get a budget passed. We don’t even get a tax break on our hurricane supplies this year because of his lack of leadership.
