DeSantis for President is selling plain white cotton T-shirts bearing the legend “DeSantis Airways” for $28 apiece.

The governor signed an executive order Oct. 12 authorizing the Florida Division of Emergency Management to “carry out logistical, rescue and evacuation operations to keep its residents safe.”

Per the DeSantis team, at least 544 Americans have been brought back from Israel via the flights.

Kevin Guthrie, executive director of the Florida Division of Emergency Management, estimated to NewsNation Tuesday that the price tag of the initial flight was “right around $4 million

Who didn't see this coming.... p.r. for himself...

And there are, of course, those that say desanctimonious should get credit/is a hero for signing an e.o. that had other people spend state of FLorida, taxpayer money, to get people back to Florida...

And funded p.r. photo ops for his campaign...

Yet little attention has gone to Corey Mills, who himself went over to arrange for evacuation of 96 people, that last I saw...

Wait until the orange guy who owns a huge jet with his name on it starts rescuing Americans from Israel. I’m sure it will happen...any moment now.

Never mind a private citizen who is being actively witch-hunted by the federal bureaucracy.

Sure, while his finances are under scrutiny by the feds and certain state governments and he has to be bounced from courtroom to courtroom, right?

But... but... she pulled a ‘just think of the children!’ to tug at your heart...

You know...

Just think of the children... how can you not ban guns?

Just think of the children... how can you not let them gender transition?

Just think of the children... how can you not let desanctimonious authorize spending Florida tax money for a p.r. opportunity to help his campaign fund raise?

Pilots here on FR have posted that the private citizen “orange guy’s” jet doesn’t have the range to make that trip when it comes fuel. I dunno.

Have you, as a private citizen, chartered a jet to help the cause? If not, why not?

Trump didn’t need to ride along. He could have sent the crew...and maybe Melania. Say, where is Melania?

Is Ron paying for it out of his own pocket or are Florida taxpayers footing the bill?

Because I’m not a billionaire like Trump claims to be.
Seriously though, he does need to spend all his campaign money on legal fees, so I guess he’s pretty tapped out.

Do people not realize that these flights were already happening because of a company/non-profit, Project Dynamo. A groups of veterans that do this type of stuff.

CNN interviewed the CEO from the organization right after all of this stuff kicked off. DeSantis was nowhere to be seen.

And that DeSantis in an attempt to say that Pres Trump, private citizen, wasn’t doing anything when he should have been all over the tv asking why Biden and his admin weren’t doing anything, is using Florida taxpayer money for this publicity stunt.

On a side note, as ‘heroic’ as some of you might think this is, how much money is the “non-profit” making off of the deal? Of course, I don’t see anyone asking that question.

Israel is bombing the anot out of Gaza and Hamas. Right now the airport in Tel Aviv is one of the safest places in the world.

Team DeSantis is making out like their guy is flying into a hot LZ to rescue troops that have been surrounded by the VC
