DeSantis FIRES Democrat Prosecutor. Ploy To Help His STRUGGLING Campaign? | The Left Wing 15.2
from The Left Wing · host The Left Wing
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis on Wednesday suspended the top prosecutor in Orlando, again wielding his executive power over local government in taking on a contentious issue in the 2024 presidential race. It’s the second time DeSantis, a Republican, has removed a Democratic state attorney and follows an investigation that began when a teenager was charged with fatally shooting a television reporter and a 9-year-old girl. Worrell vowed to seek reelection next year and said her removal was political and not about her performance. She also suggested DeSantis’ timing was to distract from a stagnant presidential campaign that has faced layoffs and changes at the top as it has struggled to regain traction.
