On Sunday night, just hours after a second attempt on President Donald Trump’s life, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis announced that the State of Florida will be conducting its own investigation.

DeSantis posted on X, “The State of Florida will be conducting its own investigation regarding the attempted assassination at Trump International Golf Club.”

“The people deserve the truth about the would-be assassin and how he was able to get within 500 yards of the former president and current GOP nominee.”

On Tuesday morning, DeSantis announced he will sign an Executive Order assigning the case to the Office of Statewide Prosecutor.

During a press conference, DeSantis said, “Today, I’m signing an Executive Order assigning the case involving the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump to the office of statewide prosecutor under the supervision of attorney general, Ashley Moody.”

“The suspect, Ryan Routh, is believed to have committed state law violations across multiple judicial circuits in the state. Palm Beach Judicial Circuit, the Judicial Circuit, including Martin County, as well as perhaps the Judicial Circuit represented by Broward County.”

“Also, the state of Florida has jurisdiction over the most serious straightforward offense, which is attempted murder. I’ve directed state agencies to move expeditiously and to provide full transparency to the public.”

While I love my Governor and applaud the intentions, I strongly suspect the feds will cripple those efforts as much as possible......and we all why that is.

Ryan Wesley Routh did not commit suicide.

“DeSantis for president!”

That’s hilarious.

8 months ago many people right here on FR were calling him a deep state rino lowlife just because he had the unmitigated gall to run against Trump for president.....now everybody loves him.

One thing for sure, fickleness is alive and well on this forum.

Hey Gov DeSantis, I have a suggestion, ARREST ALL FBI, DOJ and USSS in the State of Florida. Interrogate them one by one until you find the Mole or Traitor in their midst.

I think it’s entirely possible to simply believe that governor is the right position for Ron DeSantis because that is where he does really well.

Excellent. and confidential to the Gov, Dual Sovereignty. You can charge and try him on every state charge irrespective of what the Feds manage to do.

They dropped their candy when they tried this in Florida. DeSantis will kick their butts. Find the dim-0s responsible and give them 90 days each. In a walk in freezer!

Good! Hijack the investigation from the Feds. Maybe this is the reason he’s still in FL instead of DC this year. He might be the impetus to get this country turned around in one of God’s “mysterious ways”.

I sure like DeSantis, I hope he continues to partner with Trump and stays as one of the good guys, unlike bird brain.

“DeSantis for president!”

I don’t have a huge probelm with Desantis challenging Trump for the nomination, but I do have a problem with his falling in with the Bush-wing of the Republican party to do so. It shows his willingness to bend his knee to the Swamp to get that power.

I won’t forget in 2028.
