I went to that woman’s website. She’s one of those uber-woke types, all about fighting inequality instead of fighting crime.

But should one elected official be able to suspend another elected official? Better I think to have a robust impeachment system and a robust recall system.

Removing liberals from power is now met with derision.

That's rather up to the people of the State of Florida.

Florida’s Constitution allows governors to suspend local office holders for reasons including “malfeasance” or “neglect of duty” until the Legislature votes on whether to permanently remove or reinstate them.

In addition to good people, DJT sometimes hires incompetent Deep Staters to ‘Out’ and expose them, at the appropriate time.

He didn’t hire her. She was elected.

No there are quite a few jerks on the forum. They HATE Desantis more than they dislike Pelosi or Obama. Circular firing squad comes to mind.

I swear, there are people right here on this thread that if Governor DeSantis found a cure for cancer tomorrow they’d criticize the man for not doing it sooner. SMH

She defeated Belvin Perry, the judge in the Casey Anthony trial. A middle of the road Democrat.
